“...why are we — by which, of course, I mean am I — here?”

A question Paula Godwin could have, perhaps should have, asked more often as her once secure life spirals downwards almost to insanity.

Little is she to know that she will discover demons other than just her own when, prompted by finding a Post-it note in a rain-sodden service station near Winchester, she makes a random telephone call.

In this taut prequel to This Changed Everything and The Armistice Killer, the enigmatic DCI Ben Logan has to unravel the confusing circumstances around a murder and potential sex scandal. Can he balance intricate detective work with his own ambitions and complex emotions?

An intriguing challenge, especially given Logan’s prosopagnosia – face blindness. Despite this, or perhaps because of this, he often sees what others miss.

Choices and consequences make strange bedfellows. Sometimes literally. Sometimes fatally...

The Spark

I was standing by my car drinking a coffee, early one damp morning at Winchester Services, having stopped off on my way to a business meeting on the south coast. Amongst some litter which had been blown under a nearby bush, I spotted a Post-it note which seemed to have a phone number on it. When I drove away, I had a random thought, wondering what would have happened if I had called that number. No prizes for spotting the connection!
