The West Pennine moors, endless miles of unspoilt, windswept beauty. A haven for the weekend walker, and nature lover. However, someone is using the desolate landscape as a killing field. Like the nearby town, DS Lasser feels jaded, frayed around the edges, and losing interest in a job he no longer sees as relevant. Families live hand to mouth, fathers spending years on the dole, mothers eking out an existence, supplemented by the occasional win on the bingo, and their offspring running wild. Therefore, when Billy Jones fails to return home it is hardly earth shattering news. As the search continues, Lasser becomes convinced they have found their man. Ashley Radfield, last of the local aristocracy who along with his ageing father lives in the rambling manor house. Paint peeling from the windows and weeds in the gutter, mothballed rooms, and a huge kitchen like the cutting room of an abattoir. For the Radfields the days of prosperity and huntsman’s balls are a distant memory. However, when a body is discovered, Lasser’s convictions are thrown into turmoil. Someone is playing a vicious game, someone with a burning hatred for the Radfield family. As the long hot summer ends and the nights grow shorter, Lasser finds himself ensnared in a web deceit as he tries to unravel the dark secrets that bind two families together. Secrets stretching back over four decades as blackmail and murder reach out to ensnare the innocent as well as the guilty.
