So when Tom Pasmore, the grandson of a powerful establishment figure, develops a passion for detective work - particularly murder cases - his reputation undergoes a subtle darkening. And his growing friendship with his strange neighbour, Lamont von Heilitz, the once-famous 'amateur of crime', only adds to Mill Walk society opinion that Tom Pasmore is perhaps not entirely reliable. One murder in particular fascinates Tom - the 1925 killing of Jeanine Thielman at Eagle Lake, a resort patronized only by the cream of the island's upper crust community. But when he starts investigating the case, Tom arouses much more than mere disapproval. On the edge of a sinister web of corruption, deceit and violence, he is in danger of uncovering the darkest secrets of the people who own and run Mill Walk. *** Quantity Available: 1.
