Book Synopsis

Leicestershire-based Dominic Mallory has made sufficient money in the City to retire at forty-eight, and is looking for interesting things to do as he builds a post-commercial portfolio career. Having served briefly as an Army officer in the 1980s, he contacts his former Regiment, Prince Rupert’s Horse, and asks whether it has a project he can assist with.

It transpires that the Regimental history is weak in the latter stages of the Second World War, and Dom agrees to rewrite it. However, as he begins to gather material, he finds himself caught up in a scandal from sixty years ago which eventually spills over into present-day murder…
