While beach combing on MOD property, two young boys stumble across a reeking mound of tangled kelp. But it isn't the seaweed that stinks. It's the decomposing corpse beneath it. Called in to investigate, DCI Evan Warlow's team are faced with finding out how and why the body of a struck-off doctor ended up on a lonely beach within sight of Laugharne's famous Boathouse. But this is no innocent victim. This is a man with more enemies than friends. A fact that muddies the waters no end as Warlow unearths more and more of the dead man's sordid history. Not to mention a long line of suspects. With a killer in their midst hell bent on achieving a deadly goal and determined to let nothing and no one stand in their way, the team need to be on their guard. Unless they want to end up as victims, too. Perfect for fans of LJ Ross, JD Kirk. JM Dalgliesh, TG Reid and Simon McCleave. Celtic noir with a spatter of dark humour.
