4 out 5 stars ARC for Review

Inspector Carlyle is a brash detective who does not play by the rules and the politics among the force. He finds himself in the middle of a homicide case where the male victim was sexually abused after he was killed.  While further investigating, he finds another murder victim  along the same manner years ago,  This then leads him to the 1964 Merrion Club part of an elite Cambridge University club and to investigate the former members.

The secrets among these powerful  group of men who are willing to keep the truth buried in the past .as more and more of these members are murdered.  What really happen that these men want to bury?

One of the former members, Edward Carlton is running for Prime Minister.  He is rich and handsome and is leading in the polls and has his just as handsome brother at his side.  Does he have anything to do with the murders or will he become another statistic before he can become Prime Minister?


It has an intriguing plot which keeps you guessing till the end.
