October before. Rhys. They get to the Shore for mid-term break. No one is happy to be there. He sees Mia cleaning in Bobby’s lodge and makes a move on her – from his point of view, she really wants it. They are interrupted by something. Later, Clemmie goes to take a swim but needs to get rescued by Angharad, who says she will teach her and Caleb how to sail. We find out that Rhys is doing poor financially and his agent Fleur has made a campaign to have Rhys send a signed photo to his fans and they take a picture of them with the autograph and post it with a hashtag to get sales stirring. Christmas Day. Clemmie. They do the Christmas Day swim. After, when she is feeling happy, Rhys confronts her and tells her she needs to pay the balance (400k!) on her lodge. Detectives Leo and Ffion make a storming debut in this twisty, cleverly-layered tale of worlds colliding She grew up in the tiny community, so the murder suspects are her neighbours, friends and family – and Ffion has her own secrets to protect. Fantastic, drily humorous and layered, a wonderful introduction to Detectives Leo and Ffion‘ LJ ROSS

Dee was the owner of Number 36 and knows what Rhys had done to her worker.Rhys Lloyd threw a big party party at that night. There are too many witnesses and also suspects because Rhys wasn’t a good man and touched so many people’s lives and ruined them including his own family. His lakeside holiday homes are a success, and he’s generously invited the village to drink champagne with their wealthy new neighbours. This will be the party to end all parties.
