George Cross has always wondered why his mother left him when he was a child. Now she’s back in his life, he suddenly has answers – but he finds himself struggling to deal with it. When a disturbing case lands on his desk, he’s almost thankful for the return to normality. The body of a monk is found in a woodland near Bristol. Nothing is known about Brother Dominic’s past, which makes investigating difficult. How can Cross unpick a crime when they don’t know anything about the victim? And why would someone want to harm a monk? Discovering who Brother Dominic once was only makes the picture more puzzling. He was a much-loved and respected friend, brother, son – he’d no enemies. Or, at least, none that are obvious. But looking into his past reveals that he was a very wealthy man, that he sacrificed it all for his faith. For a man who has nothing, it seems strange that greed could be the motive for his murder.
