It's the hottest summer Cornwall has seen in 15 years. Eco-architect Olivia, who specialises in breathing life into old buildings in cutting-edge and sustainable ways, is launching her latest project, a boutique hotel. Jago Trevithick KC meets her there after a disastrous trial, seeking peace and a refuge from the underworld.

But when the couple discover the dead body of a waitress in the hotel's swimming pool, Jago fears the dark side of his profession has followed him home. Or are his troubles more personal than he thought?

Deadly Treasures by Jane McParkes weaves a gripping tale of suspense and mystery, set against the picturesque backdrop of Cornwall's captivating coastline.
