Then she is strangled &ndash; and Thursdays are never the same again.<br><br>As the small town of Otterbridge prepares for its summer carnival, Inspector Stephen Ramsay begins a painstaking investigation.

He discovers that she had taken on a number of deserving cases, including a sick and lonely old woman, a disturbed adolescent, and a compulsive gambler.

All these people are haunted, in one way or another, by Dorothea&rsquo;s goodness. And even her close family have secrets to hide. But which of them could have possibly wanted her dead?<br><br>It is not until a second body is discovered that Ramsay starts to understand how Dorothea lived &ndash; and why she died.

With the carnival festivities in full swing and dusk falling, Ramsay&rsquo;s murder investigation reaches its chilling climax . . .<br><br><b>Praise for Ann Cleeves:</b><br><br><b>&lsquo;Nobody does unsettling undercurrents better than Ann Cleeves&rsquo; &ndash; Val McDermid, bestselling author of the Tony Hill &amp; Carol Jordan series</b><br><br><b>&lsquo;Brilliant, thoughtful and deeply engaging&rsquo; &ndash; Sara Paretsky, <i>New York Times </i>bestselling author of the V.
