Sharon Watkins, much loved mother, sister and friend - found dead in the garden pond on the night of her son's 18th birthday party. With a storm raging, and most of guests intoxicated, no one is quite sure how it happened. When the pathologist later rules that she was strangled to death, DS Jerome Roberts and DCI Richard Martin know they have a big job on their hands.

There are many questions that need to be answered. Why was there a delay in the family calling the emergency services? And why was the door to the study locked when the police arrived? Why has one of the party guests fled the country? And why has one only just returned?

From Sharon's fiancé with his violent temper, to her deeply jealous elder sister - everyone has their own version of the night's events, and everyone is a suspect. In this fast-paced whodunnit, you'll be left wondering how well you really know your friends and family.

The second novel in the DS Jerome Roberts series is an absolute must-read for fans of Angela Marsons, Joy Ellis, and LJ Ross, and can be read as a standalone story.
