A remote Scottish island… secrets waiting to destroy… a gruesome killing
What actor could refuse the invitation to rehearse a new play on an exclusive private island?
Two aging actors well past their prime
A young hot-shot whose career is on the up
A jaded ingénue battling the industry
But before a line is uttered, the production’s leading man is brutally murdered. And when the fiercest storm in a century cuts the island off from the mainland, all hell breaks loose.
Colin Buxton, a police officer taking a break with his producer boyfriend, is caught off guard, and without back-up, must untangle a web of lies and deceit before the killer strikes again.
And, as the blurring of personal and professional lives threatens to derail an already fraught investigation, Colin asks:
Is the key to solving the murder buried in the past?
Who can he trust to tell the truth?
And might his own partner be implicated?
