Two calls. One body. Two obvious suspects.

When DS Pete Gayle is called to a south Devon farmhouse, he finds the brutally murdered body of its owner in her blood-soaked bed and two men – her son and her husband, his step-father – accusing each other of the murder. With both of them living in the house, their DNA will naturally be all over it, so Pete and his team will need all their skills and experience to untangle this deadly web of deceit and figure out who killed the woman – hopefully before anyone else is slain.
