A CLASSIC ENGLISH DETECTIVE NOVEL FOR FANS OF MURDERS IN MIDSOMER... Deep in a cave beneath the Yorkshire Dales National Park in northern England, the body of a man is discovered. The investigation into the strange death is led by experienced Chief Inspector Jim Oldroyd with his younger colleague Carter, a newcomer from London. The murder victim is Dave Atkins from nearby Burnthwaite, where far too many people had reasons to dislike or even hate him. There is no shortage of suspects, but the circumstances of the crime baffle Oldroyd and Carter. How did Atkins's body end up in such a remote part of the cave? When a person who could provide important information about the case dies, it becomes clear that the murderer will stop at nothing. Oldroyd and his team strive to uncover the truth, but every answer only raises new questions. It seems that the closed rural community is full of secrets and lies. Oldroyd and Carter soon realize that this case will be darker and more intricate than the caves hidden underground. A classic English detective novel in the style of legendary genre authors such as John Dickson Carr, Clayton Rawson, or Ellery Queen.
