Whilst out for a stroll on Sunday morning, DI ‘Dick’ Barton notices two police cars parked outside the church, in the village of Ayton-le-Dale, just outside Scarborough. When he goes to investigate, he finds a dead vicar – the victim of a tragic accident.
But nothing is ever that simple.
Barton’s investigations soon reveal that two witnesses, along with £20,000, have gone missing, and that the vicar was not all that he seemed.
All thoughts of a quiet day with his family are banished. But that’s soon the least of his worries as a 'big city' criminal arrives looking for the missing money.
Now Barton has a murder and a kidnapping to deal with and has to find the killer before she can kill again.
