The gripping and brilliant debut crime novel from the universally acclaimed creator of TV series BROADCHURCH

When Detective Nicola Bridge moves back to Dorset from the big city, the last thing she expects is for the picturesque village of Fleetcombe to become a grisly crime scene.

Jim Tiernan, pub landlord, is dead, the body staged with macabre relish on an isolated country road. Nicola soon realises everyone in the village has something to hide.

The hairdresser. The delivery driver. The farmer. And even the little girl, hidden at the top of the playground slide.

Whispers. Rumours. Lies. And somewhere among them, a killer hiding in plain sight.

Because sometimes the smallest villages hide the darkest secrets...
