Sometimes, the wrong choice is the only choice you have.
While Chief Inspector Domenic Jejeune is off on a birding trip, trying to piece together the details of the manslaughter case against his fugitive brother, an old rival has stepped into his shoes and heads a murder investigation in north Norfolk. Paul Laraby, a former superior whom Jejeune has long since surpassed, brings his unspectacular, by-the-book methods to the job, but these appear to be producing results at first, and his popularity is rising. There is even talk that a successful resolution of the case could lead to a permanent position, at Jejeuneâs expense. By the time he returns home, Jejeune faces a difficult choice: he can stand by and let Laraby fail â while a killer escapes justice â or work from the shadows to ensnare the guilty party, knowing Laraby may reap the rewards. - Univ of Toronto Pr
