A remote island off the North Devon coast, Devil's Rock is home to few inhabitants. The rugged coastline has a history of smuggling and shipwreck, but there has never been a murder - until now.
When the body of Kieran Deveney is found on Devil's Rock, two islanders confess to the killing. Both claim they acted alone, and neither can be convicted while the other stands by their story.
The team is relying on CSI Ally Dymond to uncover the evidence that cracks the case. What she finds is a community awash with secrets.
Shortly after she arrives, the island is hit by a storm that prevents anyone from leaving. But it's not the treacherous weather that Ally fears, it's the people she's trapped with...

T. Orr Munro was born in Hampshire to an English mother and a Greek-Armenian father who later moved to Devon. After university she trained as a CSI, then became a secondary school teacher. She changed career at 33 to become a police and crime journalist. She has since returned with her family to live in North Devon, the setting for the Ally Dymond series.
