It’s a long, hot summer. As the water drains away from the reservoir, a car emerges. And there seems to be a body in it, a body that then disappears . . .
Dan and Florence start to investigate and uncover a long-ago robbery, missing gold and murder. When the drought breaks, everything is swept downstream and the truth is revealed . . .
‘Fleur Hitchcock has cornered the market in hard-boiled crime novels for beginners.’
