On the island of Guernsey, DI Ed Moretti and DC Liz Falla have been
called to a film set because someone has viscously slashed a set of
costumes with a dagger. Later, a similar dagger has been thrown into
the garden area where the author of the movie is staying. Early the
following morning, Moretti is called and informed that the location
manager for the film is dead.
A few days later the author is found dead in a tunnel that had once been
dug by German prisoners. Alongside the body is another dagger; this
one engraved in German.
Although the crimes have been committed on Guernsey, Moretti is sure
that there is a connection to Italy, so he travels there in search of
answers. While there, a material witness is killed back on Guernsey.
Looking through the victim's possessions, Moretti comes up with a clue
as to who could be behind the killings.
Author Jill Downie's murder mystery finishes with a lot of action at the
end. I found that her writing was full of material that seemed to be
filler, however it was a good read.
