Detective Inspector Joe Plantagenet returns in the new book in Kate Ellis’s gripping crime series set in Yorkshire.

The quaint Yorkshire village of Eaglethorpe was a sanctuary for famous TV personality, Lexi Verity, away from prying eyes and camera flashes. But a life led in the spotlight can create envy in its shadows.

When Lexi is found dead in her swimming pool, DI Joe Plantagenet and DCI Emily Thwaite are called to investigate. The murder of the celebrity is front-page news and the pressure is on the Eborby CID to find the killer.

As Joe and Emily unravel the last moments of Lexi’s life, they discover various motives for murder – as well as events in Lexi’s distant past that would horrify the public if the facts were ever revealed.

Sinister secrets are also haunting the residents of the ancient cathedral city of Eborby nearby and Joe must decide which lead to follow, before a killer strikes again.
