The Cotswolds. Ordinary lives. Something sinister beneath.
Saskia Denman is a civilian investigator. Sean Tallis is a lizard-loving private eye with a maverick approach to the law. Together they uncover the darkness hiding in plain sight across the Cotswolds – in the kind neighbour, the spotless home, the noises coming from the flat above.
