Dagger Award-winning Author: "Utterly compelling . . . a British police procedural that bristles with reality and humanity . . . crime writing of the finest quality." ―Daily Mail
Residents of the Peak District are used to tourists descending on its soaring hills and brooding valleys. However, this summer brings a different kind of visitor to the idyllic landscape, leaving behind bodies and secrets.
A series of suicides throughout the Peaks throws Detective Inspector Ben Cooper and his team in Derbyshire's E Division into a race against time to find a connection to these seemingly random acts--with no way of predicting where the next body will turn up. Meanwhile, in Nottingham, Detective Sergeant Diane Fry finds that a key witness has vanished . . .
But what are the mysterious Secrets of Death? And is there one victim whose fate wasn't suicide at all?
Praise for the two-time Barry Award-winning Cooper and Fry novels
"Just the ticket for rainy-day reading." --Kirkus Reviews
"As dark and winding as the labyrinth of caves below its Derbyshire setting. . . . intelligent, suspenseful . . . A master of psychological suspense." --Publishers Weekly
