Short Synopsis
Mark Dawson presents Book 4 in the Atticus Priest series.

Full Synopsis
Private investigator Atticus Priest is employed by a disgruntled ex-husband to dig up dirt on his estranged wife. But when she goes missing after swimming in the River Avon, Atticus uncovers a conspiracy between five lifelong friends that goes back years.

The friends did something when they were younger that they're not proud of. It's something that would land them in a world of trouble if it ever came to light.

Something they've been trying to bury ever since.

But Atticus finds one secret and then the next. The friends have a lot at stake—what will they do to keep him off the scent, and what will they do if he gets too close to the truth?

Because there's one thing about dirty secrets . . . they're never as buried as you think, and once they've been dug up, they can destroy everything.
