He found the body on the forty-third day of
his walk . . .
Devastated by the
senseless murder of his wife, Detective Superintendent
Thomas Lynley retreated to Cornwall, where he has spent six
solitary weeks hiking the bleak and rugged coastline. But no
matter how far he walks, the painful memories do not
diminish.
Then, at the base of a cliff near a town
better known for its surfing than its intrigue, Lynley
discovers the body of a young man who has fallen to his
death. First a witness, then a suspect when the hand of a
killer is revealed, Lynley remains, above all, a policeman
willing to aid the gruff head of an understaffed local
constabulary in her investigation. But the secrets in this
community run dark and deep—and Lynley must somehow find a
way to let go of the past long enough to solve a most
devious and dreadful crime.
