It's the hottest summer Cornwall has seen in 15 years. Eco-architect Olivia, who specialises in breathing life into old buildings in cutting-edge and sustainable ways, is launching her latest project, a boutique hotel. Jago Trevithick KC meets her there after a disastrous trial, seeking peace and a refuge from the underworld.
But when the couple discover the dead body of a waitress in the hotel's swimming pool, Jago fears the dark side of his profession has followed him home. Or are his troubles more personal than he thought
Jane McParkes has wanted to be a crime writer ever since she discovered The Famous Five as a small child. Her dream was fulfilled in 2023 with the publication of the first of the Olivia Wells mysteries, a series of cosy Cornish crime novels with a green twist. The second, Deadly Treasures, is also available, and the third novel will be published in 2026.
