A man is murdered in the grounds of a Bristol hotel, bringing investigating officer Rose Piper into contact with the escort agency connected to his visit. The death of another employee soon makes the case more disturbing. Elsewhere, Freddie and Constance Lange appear to have an enviable family life in Somerset, until a conflict between Constance and their son begins to fracture that carefully maintained world. As these different lives move towards one another, private desires and concealed tensions acquire dangerous consequences. Hilary Bonner combines a police investigation with a portrait of a family losing its apparent security, building a suspense story in which passion and self-deception threaten to turn destructive.
