Riassunto

The fourth gripping novel in the original and authentic crime series featuring Carl Houseman and his team.

‘Michael Connolly, eat your heart out.’ Frances Fyfield

‘It’s morning. Deputy Sheriff Carl Houseman is not due on shift for several hours. The phone rings: a woman is dead, suspected suicide. The dispatcher can’t reveal the details; it’s a Code 61. Something serious has happened over at the Mansion and he's not allowed to ask too many questions over the radio.
