‘Spencer’s latest is her best: an ingenious puzzle that goes straight to the heart’ – Kirkus Starred Review
A miscarriage of justice for DCI Woodend
Though it is thirty years since Margaret Dodds was tried and executed for the brutal murder of her second husband, many troubling questions raised during the trial are still left unanswered.

Her daughter, an influential lawyer, wants her name cleared. The investigating officer, now a powerful politician with a seat in the House of Lords, is determined to ensure that the verdict stands.
