When the family butler is brutally attacked, land agent Matthew
Rowsley and his wife Harriet determine to find the culprit in this
gripping Victorian mystery. With his lordship's mental health
failing, management of his grand country estate has been assigned
to a group of trustees, including land agent Matthew Rowsley and
his capable wife Harriet. But the smooth running of Thorncroft
House is disrupted by a series of unforeseen events. Building work
on the estate workers' new cottages is halted by the discovery of
Roman remains. Shortly afterwards, the family butler is brutally
assaulted and left for dead. A random attack - or was he
deliberately targeted? Matters take an even more disturbing turn
when Lord Croft's long-lost cousin and heir, Julius Trescothick,
arrives from Australia, ready to claim his inheritance. But is he
who he claims to be . and what are his true intentions? If they are
to preserve Thorncroft House and a way of life that has continued
for centuries, Matthew and Harriet must uncover the truth behind
Trescothick's identity and solve a series of interlocking
mysteries.
