For further details please contact Sarah Murtagh (Editor) on email address above. Synopsis
Marnoch did not set out to become a sometimes private detective, it found him by circumstance. After the premature death of his wife, Marie, he eventually finds he needs to be more occupied to overcome the pain of her loss. At the same time a young girl goes missing from the small town where the Marnoch’s had intended to make their final home together. After accepting the temporary responsibility of looking after a local woman’s Labrador, Marnoch eventually finds evidence pointing to where the girl has been taken. To his surprise he also discovers that the girl’s family originate from near to his own and Marie’s origins in the North of Scotland. What follows is an ever twisting path of unexpected events that involve many interesting characters both inside the Brambleton Manor Estate, where the Jarvis family had been in residence for the past five-hundred years, and the nearby township. Marnoch could be criticised for acting alone as he does throughout but the author deliberately leaves the question open to readers as to what they would do under each circumstance, where one slip-up could seriously jeopardize the rescue and further endanger the missing lass. The situation is further complicated by the arrival of a detective sergeant to lead the investigation and who bears a major grudge against Marnoch. He discovers that an unholy alliance exists between the police officer and a member of the aristocratic Jarvis family. Potential danger lurks on every dark corner as Marnoch realises too late he has been lured into and finally trapped inside a labyrinth below Brambleton Manor Estate. However, a major search has begun and others are fast closing in to give assistance. But will they be in time to save him? |
