He desperately begs Richard to visit him, and reveals that he believes there have been attempts on his life. Llew has been writing his memoirs, and has discovered something suspicious in an old case. But as Richard and Amelia approach Llew's house they see that it is ablaze, they are too late. Llew is killed in the fire before he has a chance to explain. In the wake of Llew's suspicious death, Richard takes up his investigation. But as he opens the old case, old grievances are disturbed and before long, Richard is drawn into a web of lies that could cost him his own life. Two men stand in his way, the convicted murderer of the Edwin Carter case, and a disdainful officer who will stop at nothing to halt his investigations. Can he solve two murders, one old, one new, and uncover the secret behind an alibi given too soon? By prolific mystery writer Roger Ormerod (1920-2005). Scarce signed. Signed by Author(s).
