Summary

A gripping, binge-worthy detective drama set in the wilds of Shropshire

The Devil's Chair is a place of dark legend, a brooding rock formation in a bleak and forbidding landscape. For Marianne Leonard, it is also the home she built on a lie, offering a hard-won peace she has fiercely protected. But a brutal murder at her bunkhouse pulls her back into a world to which she swore she would never return.

Now, with a killer hiding among her guests, Marianne finds herself a suspect in a high-stakes investigation led by DI Georgie Fraser, a detective who carries her own ghosts. As Fraser uncovers a web of false identities, hidden relationships, and a dark history of betrayal, the lines between victim, witness, and killer begin to blur.

Can she unmask the murderer before Marianne’s life is completely destroyed, or will she become the next sacrifice to the unforgiving landscape?

This is a dark and suspenseful novel that explores themes of secrets, atonement, and survival.
