Description
There were five of them, Oxford's brightest, an almost impenetrable group until they allowed Jenny into their close-knit circle.
That was when the games began to get out of hand and one of them ended up dead. No one ever suspected: no one even knew there had been a crime until the body turned up after six years, stripped of flesh and clues . . . .
Years later and journalist Kathryn Brooks is working on a story; obsessed by the story, according to husband Alex, to avoid the widening cracks in their marriage. And why should Kathryn succeed in tracing the true identity of famous novelist Megan Morris when so many others have failed?
She has only a half-hint of a clue; a name, Jenny Branagh, that may have nothing to do with the author. Given the choice between the fragile atmosphere at home and chasing shadows in Oxford, Kathryn doggedly sets to work.
But in pursuit of her story she stirs memories a certain group of people would prefer to forget. And someone will go to any lengths to make sure Kathryn leaves the past undisturbed . . .
