May 1925.

Rex Falconer is charming, wealthy, and impeccably connected. He is also, Wolfe suspects, one of the most dangerous men in England.

A house party at Falconer Court – his clifftop estate above the Dorset coast – and the right people have been very carefully chosen. Wolfe and Fox are among them.

The house is perfect, the views are spectacular, the hospitality is flawless. Rex’s mother Leonora oversees everything. His wife Anthea is beautiful, warm, welcoming, and not quite what she appears.

Neither is Rex.

Behind the immaculate surface something is being planned – something with consequences that reach far beyond one man’s ambition. Wolfe has to find it before it’s too late. On Falconer’s ground. Under Falconer’s eye. With no margin for error.

A clock is ticking, but only Wolfe can see it.
