Formats & Editions
A murder committed in the night of dead. It's all a game for Detective Wycliffe to solve in a puzzling case.
Writer David Cleeve lived exactly the way a bestselling novelist should live - in an opulent house set in a beautiful corner of Cornwall. But beneath the successful fa ade was a private nightmare.

Then, one day, the card arrived torn in half - and that night a murder was committed.
