by Michael Hambling (Author)
Discover a series of British crime mysteries set on the Dorset coast from bestselling author Michael Hambling.
Detective Sophie Allen teams up with Somerset's Criminal Investigation Department to solve an intricate mystery full of buried secrets.
Detective Sophie Allen's daughter discovers the body of a reclusive tramp in remote woodland in Dorset. He's been dead for a week.
Sophie and her team try to piece together something about his life, but progress is slow.
No one is quite what they seem . . .
Then a hidden package is discovered near his rudimentary shelter. The police also find out that someone has been in the area asking about the tramp recently. A picture begins to emerge.
He was an important member of a commune that had a three-year existence on a farm on the Quantock Hills in Somerset more than decade earlier.
What happened in the commune and why are people still dying because of it?
This gritty crime mystery is perfect for fans of Joy Ellis, Ann Cleeves, J.D. Kirk, J.M. Dalgliesh and Pauline Rowson.
