About this product

Product Information

This case was different from anything Vera had ever worked before. Two bodies, connected but not lying together. And nothing made her feel as alive as murder. Life seems perfect in Valley Farm, a quiet community in Northumberland. Then a shocking discovery shatters the silence. The owners of a big country house have employed a house-sitter, a young ecologist named Patrick, to look after the place while they're away. But Patrick is found dead by the side of the lane into the valley - a beautiful, lonely place to die. DI Vera Stanhope arrives on the scene, with her detectives Holly and Joe. When they look round the attic of the big house - where Patrick has a flat - she finds the body of a second man. All the two victims have in common is a fascination with moths - catching these beautiful, rare creatures. The three couples who live in the Valley Farm development have secrets too: Annie and Sam's daughter is due to be released from prison any day; Nigel watches, silently, every day, from his window. As Vera is drawn into the claustrophobic world of this increasingly strange community, she realizes that there may be deadly secrets trapped here . . . Also available in the Vera Stanhope series are The Crow Trap, Telling Tales, Hidden Depths, Silent Voices, The Glass Room and Harbour Street. Ann Cleeves' Shetland series (BBC television drama Shetland) is also available now in print and ebook editions.

  • Vera at her best.

    This is the last book in the series of seven Ann Cleeves books featuring Vera Stanhope. The author has developed the key characters of this series so this is a fine example of compelling prose. As usual Vera is animated by a murder enquiry, driven to find the culprit in her own unique way. It's a terrific read with great dialogue and psychological insights before finishing in an impossible to predict conclusion. Highly recommended reading for crime thriller enthusiasts.
