Who killed Marcia?
Beautiful but difficult, Marcia...
Ted answers the telephone to discover his ex-wife, Marcia, is dead, accidentally drowned in the sea below the house that he built on a remote beach in the north of New Zealand, a house he lost in the divorce. Marcia – lively but infuriating Marcia. Gone. The mother of their daughter Holly who is devastated.
Ted needs to support Holly and soon finds himself a guest at ‘his’ beach house.
But the police become involved. Marcia’s death is not accidental, they say, but suspicious. As is Ted’s involvement.
He should have stayed away.
