Set on the lonely Isle de Groix, this instalment in the series sees Enzo unravelling a decades’ old murder using the preserved crime scene. Unlike the previous books, Enzo does not have the help of his little team on this occasion, instead having to do all the leg work himself.

I really enjoyed the plot of this book as it spans decades and continents and involves some important historic events. The pacing is perfect, each twist to the story keeping you wanting to know more, to figure out the mystery of Killian’s murder. The satisfaction I felt when all the pieces of the jigsaw fell into place and everything made sense was brilliant, and the reason this book is being given 5 stars.  

There wasn't much character development in this book, except for an important event for Enzo, linking in to the theme of the book - fathers and sons, history being passed on through generations. This will hopefully be explored further in the next books, which I'm excited to read
