Description

More than a decade ago, the body of eighteen-year-old Sarah Grove was found floating among the water lilies in the pond at Castle Vyne. The case was never solved. Now her sister Natalie is determined to finally uncover the truth.

But when Natalie appears publicly to discuss Sarah's murder, she never expects it to unleash a deadly chain of events. Within hours, bodies start turning up in the nearby village of Calahurst... it seems someone will do anything to keep the past buried. As Natalie delves deeper into her family's history - with the help of mysterious castle gardener Bryn Llewellyn - she finds that nothing is truly what it seems. Behind the charming castle walls and chocolate-box cottages, the respectable villagers of Calahurst are hiding some very deadly secrets indeed.

When another young woman is found dead in the very same lily pond where Sarah died, Natalie realises the killer has returned to finish what they started. But in a village where everyone has something to hide, who can she trust? And will she become the next victim of Castle Vyne's deadly legacy?

Set in the world of Raven's Edge, this standalone gothic cosy mystery will have you up all night! Perfect for fans of Clare Chase, Fiona Leitch and Agatha Christie.
