Description
June, 1916. On the eve of the bloody Battle of the Somme, a group of English officers have a last drink before returning to the Front. Strangers, they discover a shared enthusiasm for motorcars, and make a promise: If they survive, they’ll meet in Paris a year after the war ends and celebrate by racing to Nice.
As planned, the officers reunite in 1919 and set out. In the mountains just north of their destination, one vehicle is nearly run off the twisting road while another crashes, badly injuring the driver. No one knows—or will admit to recognizing—who was behind the wheel of the rogue motorcar.
One year later, a rector driving along the English coast in a gale loses control of his vehicle and is killed. Another set of tire tracks raises questions. Is the crash connected to the events the year before? Called in to investigate this puzzling case, Inspector Ian Rutledge—a man fighting his own past—begins a frustrating search for a merciless killer who hides in the shadows. And when the next target is a child, Rutledge will stop at nothing to find the victim in time.
