Timothy Rolls never wanted to be a hero. He wanted a cup of tea, a quiet evening, and to get home safely. Instead, he got evidence. The kind that gets people killed.

A nephew with a debt problem. An uncle with a boat, a will, and rather too much whisky. And one perfectly ordinary piece of fruit, rolling across a cabin table in the moonlight.

That reality is changing.
