About this product

Product Information

Simon Tolkien's gripping Oxford-based thriller which sees Inspector Trave in a race for justice against deception, conspiracy and the long shadow of the past. When an eminent art historian is found dead in his study, all the evidence points to his estranged son, Stephen. With his fingerprints on the murder weapon, Stephen's guilt seems undeniable. As the police begin to question five other people who were in the house at the time, it is revealed that Stephen's father was involved at the end of World War II in a deadly hunt for a priceless relic in northern France, and the case begins to unravel. As Stephen's trial unfolds at the Old Bailey, Inspector Trave of the Oxford police decides he must go to France and find out what really happened in 1944. What artefact could be so valuable it would be worth killing for? But Trave has very little time - the race is on to save Stephen from the gallows.

  • Interesting and engrossing throughout!

    This was a very interesting and engrossing read! It gripped me from the very beginning until the very end! In 1959 Professor Cade, a retired Art Historian, is murdered in his home. Stephen, his son, is arrested, accused and tried for murdered at the Old Bailey London. The evidence against him seems obvious and overwhelming and he is found guilty - to be hanged soon! Trave, then convinced is now not convinced. Believing him to be innocent and there being other suspects for the murder he decides to investigate and find him innocent. There are unexpected facts discovered to keep the reader engrossed and the ending will be surprising! It was worth reading! Looking forward to buying and reading the other books written by Simon Tolkien!
