Amateur sleuth Astrid Swift swaps the sporting summer in England for a British expat enclave in Spain, where everyone has a secret reason for leaving the UK.
The sunniest days, the deadliest nights.
Amidst the sun and sangria, something sinister is lurking in the Spanish port town of Estepona. A world-famous restaurant has been the victim of a robbery, and in its wake, this sleepy seaside enclave finds itself rattled by a poison-pen campaign that is teasing out its residents' secrets on social media.
Astrid Swift is called to investigate, but with priceless art gone missing – and her own father insistent that his life is under threat – can she piece together the puzzle before it's too late for both the town and her father?
