He vanished—only to resurface under a stolen identity. As DCI Frank Black and DI Gerry Carver unravel the mystery of Firth's life, they uncover a disturbing legacy: a man who offered healing but left only ruin. His past patients and colleagues are hiding secrets of their own—and someone will do anything to keep them buried.

Lorsque des ossements enterrés sont mis au jour par une tempête dans la pittoresque ville côtière de Whitby, dans le North Yorkshire, Frank se retrouve plongé dans une enquête qui le ramène à la fin des années quatre-vingt et à l'incendie dévastateur d'un pub populaire.
