Summary:
To celebrate their engagement, DCI Arthur St. Just and Portia DeAth visit the quiet village of Maidsfell in Cornwall. Upon arriving, they find the villagers in an uproar over plans to redevelop the local seafront. The fishermen want to build a new slipway to aid their business, but many residents worry it will spoil the view for the tourists who help drive the economy. After a heated village meeting on the issue, St. Just overhears an argument involving Lord Bodwally, an unpopular aristocrat staunchly opposed to the plans. Later, Bodwallys lifeless body is discovered. Its murder. Although Bodwally was disliked, whod go so far as to kill him? St. Just, although an outsider from Cambridge, feels compelled to help local authorities investigate. Is Bodwallys death linked to the seafront, his suspect business dealings, or a secret from the past? One thing is certain: the fallout threatens to change Maidsfell forever.
