On a blazing hot day in the heart of summer, a renowned banker is shot dead on the golf course. There are no witnesses, and no obvious suspects.

And as he delves deeper into the victim's life, he starts to uncover a past darker than any he could have imagined, and secrets that spread wider than he could possibly believe.
Secrets that those involved will do anything to keep hidden . . .
Someone, somewhere knows the truth.
