In the small village of Sowerbridge in Hampshire, elderly woman Lavinia Fanshaw and her carer Dorothy Jenkins were brutally murdered.

Irish laborer Patrick O’Riordan is arrested for a crime, sparking a wave of hatred and violence against his family. The only one who believes in his innocence is neighbor Siobhan Lavenham, who goes against the community’s prejudices to defend him. But as the trial approaches, the O’Riordan family’s dark secrets are revealed, and Siobhan begins to question everything she’s believed. This suspenseful novel explores themes of prejudice, manipulation, and the truths hidden behind the facade of a peaceful village.
