A perfect life, a perfect love - and a perfect murder. For over forty years Carol Cage has been living as a recluse in her mansion, Oaktree House. Fear is her constant companion. She's been keeping a secret - and it's about to be unearthed. When she receives a compulsory purchase order for her home, she knows that everyone is going to find out what she did to survive her darkest weeks in 1970.

She's determined not to pay for the mistakes of others; if she has to suffer, then they will too. Carol Cage has a terrible secret ... and she's about to exact retribution on everyone who'd let her suffer.
