Sometimes, the hardest truth is the one we hide from ourselves.
Detective Sergeant Tony Heaton has been living a lie for thirty years.
Plagued by his failure to solve a brutal slaying in a peaceful seaside town, Tony is weeks from retirement when a new piece of evidence comes to light.
He knows the case better than anyone on the planet, and is perfectly positioned to dive straight back in.
But DS Heaton doesn’t need to solve the case. He already knows who the killer is, so as those around him sift the truth from the lies, he must work to stay one step ahead.
The truth must stay hidden, even if that means lying to himself.
