Bloody murders at Holcombe Manor in 1885 leave the police baffled. The entire family, except one young man, Horatio Henderson, who has disappeared, has been killed. Perhaps Horatio is the culprit? Except that he has no motive. And that’s the problem: there seems to be no motive for anyone to have committed the murders.

With no one to inherit the estate except the missing Horatio, the executors are left with a problem until, five years later, a young woman turns up from Australia claiming the estate.

And then she is murdered too, and there is still no sign of Horatio.

At last the police have a clue. A suspect is arrested, tried, convicted, and hanged.

But was he guilty? Or were the police sucked into a maelstrom of misinformation?

Seventy-five years later, history repeats itself. An entire family at Holcombe Manor is murdered as they sleep, and the killings seem as motiveless as the original horrific murders. Perhaps, this time, the police will learn the lessons of the past and identify the real killer.

Or perhaps not.
