A darkness settles on this supposedly quiet street...
When Clare becomes a widow, her response is something that shocks her - relief. All she wants to do is move on and figure out how to continue her life, alone, no matter the guilt that brings.
So when Vic, her closest friend, comes to her, showing the signs of trouble in her own marriage, she is more than supportive in helping her leave Rob.
But Vic doesn't get the chance to do that. Because as they go over to Vic's house to collect her things, they find a body. Rob's.
It appears someone else had an axe to grind. But for Clare, already reeling from secrets from her own late husband's dark past, she's about to find out this murder isn't as straightforward as it may appear...
