MEET THE SLEUTH
Forty-something coroner Martha Gunn knows a thing or two about grief. After the sudden death of her husband, it’s defined her in ways she never imagined. Martha’s twin children were toddlers at the time. Now, a pair of secretive and sulky pre-teens, they have the knack of making Martha feel like an outsider in her own home. Dry-humoured, incisive and relentlessly curious, Martha’s mind is sharp as any scalpel. When DI Alex Randall seeks her insight on a murder case, she can’t resist getting involved — professionally and maybe personally?

THE SETTING
Welcome to Shrewsbury, an ancient market town that will always be defined by its past. The River Severn encircles it on all sides, making it feel like a medieval island frozen in time. With its timbered buildings, narrow lanes and steep streets, its streets are layered with centuries of history. It might seem peaceful at first glance. But a place this old is bound to have its secrets.
