A body behind the bar. A family torn apart. A pub where the spirits are as dark as the family's secrets.
Everyone in Westport knows the Lynch family. They own its most successful pub, the shoe shop next door, the solicitor's office upstairs and the farm out at Knockfin. So when Michael Lynch, the well-loved publican, is found dead behind the bar, bludgeoned by a bottle of spirits, the local community is thrown into shock. To Detectives Martin O'Shea and Deirdre Maguire this looks like a robbery gone wrong. But as they dig deeper, they uncover cracks in the family that threaten to tear the powerful Lynch dynasty apart. Then another Lynch is kidnapped. Now the stakes are higher, and O'Shea and Maguire are in a race against time to uncover the truth before another member of the Lynch family is dead. Perfect for fans of Peter May, Ann Cleeves, Joy Ellis and Helen H. Durrant.
