Description
When a woman is burned to death in a Devonshire field, it seems like a case of mistaken identity. Until DI Wesley Peterson learns of a legend involving a French woman who died there in the same way in the thirteenth century. When Wesley discovers that records of a previous site excavation have vanished, and that two archaeologists involved in the dig died in tragic circumstances, it seems clear that there is a link between the mysterious legend and the recent murder. But edging closer to the truth brings unexpected danger to Wesley. The truth echoes a story of twisted love and obsession from many centuries ago – a truth some would kill for.
