Description
Detective Chief Inspector Ryan retreats to Holy Island to seek refuge after being forced to take a vacation following a particularly gruesome case, temporarily leaving his position in the homicide department. However, just days before Christmas, his apparent peace is disrupted, and he is thrown back into the dark world of murder, as a young woman's body is found among the ancient ruins of a nearby abbey.
At the same time, Doctor Anna Taylor returns to the island, where she grew up, now serving as a police consultant. During the investigation of the murder with ritual elements, old memories resurface, forcing her to confront her difficult past. Anna collaborates with Ryan in the search for an unpredictable killer who hides in plain sight.
Murder and mystery are woven into this fast-paced crime detective story set on the picturesque, history-laden Northumbrian island of Lindisfarne, cut off from the English mainland by a tidal causeway, spiced with just the right amount of romance and humor.
