From the bestselling author of Holy Island comes the gripping fourth novel in The Summer Suspense Mysteries, set amidst the spectacular Cornish landscape. \"LJ Ross keeps company with the best mystery writers\" - The Times \"A literary phenomenon\" - Evening Chronicle ----------------------------------------- SOME LEGENDS NEVER DIE... Irish newsreader Isolde Malone has a face many would recognise; in fact, she can't walk through the streets of Dublin without bumping into a horde of fans, all of whom want their picture taken with the darling of broadcast journalism. She's living a dream life and has never been happier... Until the night everything changes. Forced to take a sabbatical from her glittering career, Isolde needs a haven from ordinary life and the support of her only remaining family. So, when a gilt-edged invitation to attend one of her brother's fundraising events drops through the post, it seems like the perfect opportunity. There's just one problem... She must cross the sea to Cornwall. What promised to be the perfect escape soon turns into a nightmare when a body washes up at the foot of the legendary castle at Tintagel, and Isolde soon realises that the ghosts in that part of the world can be just as deadly as the ones she's left behind in Ireland. Trapped in a windswept country house hotel for the weekend, surrounded by suspects, Isolde hardly knows who to trust, but she knows it isn't Tristan Williams-no matter what the old legend might say... Suspense is peppered with romance and humour in this fast-paced mystery, set amidst the spectacular Cornish landscape.
