When a high-flying adman is stabbed to death on a company weekend in the English Lake District, local detective Daniel Skelgill finds himself wrenched from his rural Cumbrian comfort zone. As the investigation unfolds, DI Skelgill is led a merry dance between London and Edinburgh, at every turn confronted by uncooperative suspects—colleagues, wife and lovers of the deceased—each of whom is possessed of motive and opportunity. Is this a crime of passion, a professional hit, or a cleverly calculated killing borne out of greed and jealousy?

Decent plot & narration, no character development
Revisado: 02-10-25
The overall murder and plot were decent, some good twists. The narrator was very good. But the characters were very flat and undeveloped. I found myself not caring at all about what happened to them. After an entire story, pretty much all I know about Skelgill is that he loves fishing. The attempts at flirtation/romance seemed forced and included just to tick a box. Also, the descriptions of the cricket match and fishing trips dragged on so long and didn't move the plot at all. I enjoy things unrelated to the main plot to learn more about the characters, but in-dept play-by-play of a cricket match and fishing trip don't accomplish that. I don't care to read another of this series.
