October 1891.

A stranger is discovered hanging from a tree in the Malvern Hills.

Detective Inspector Ravenscroft and Constable Crabb are called in to investigate. But how can they solve the murder if no one can identify the victim?

Whoever killed the man must have really wanted him dead — they strung him up and watched as he suffocated.

This may be the most dangerous case Ravenscroft has ever worked. Will the Herefordshire Hangmen ever be brought to justice?

CAN RAVENSCROFT FIND THE ANSWERS AND KEEP HIS OWN FAMILY SAFE?

Perfect for fans of M.R.C. Kasasian, E.S. Thomson, Oscar de Muriel or Karen Charlton.
