In this heart-pounding novel, Detective DC Smith’s unorthodox investigation methods land him in a royally twisted situation as he looks into the tragic death of a Lord.

During DC Smith’s third investigation with the Diver and Diver Associates agency, they have been asked by a member of Norfolk’s aristocracy to look into the tragic death of her younger brother, Freddie, the late Lord Thorpe.

The inquest verdict was of misadventure, but it isn’t long before Smith begins to suspect there has been a serious miscarriage of justice.
