A victim stabbed through the heart sets off a deadly chain of events that will plunge Cora into her most personal case yet.
The first victim was found on Aldeburgh beach, his life extinguished by a single stab through the heart, a pile of pebbles, seaweed and sand piled onto his body. DS Rob Minshull and the South Suffolk CID start the investigation, but Dr Cora Lael is pulled into the case to decode the strange death tableau.
When another victim is found, her murder identical to the first, it’s not long before the coastal communities are thrown into panic. As the media whips up a frenzy for the killer dubbed ‘The Beachcomber’, the pressure is on for South Suffolk CID to find the murderer, fast.
Cora’s ability to sense psychic echoes from found objects might bring some answers. But what is the significance of the voice whispering ‘mine’? And when Cora hears that same voice in objects close to home, can she really trust the people around her?
With a fractured police squad, a terrified community and too many theories to the killer’s identity, can The Beachcomber be stopped before more lives are lost?
