Publisher's Synopsis
A ruthless killer is on the rampage, one with a distinctive trademark. So what is the secret of the forester living a hermit-like existence in the remotest part of the Winfield Estate? Is he a callous murderer, now exacting revenge on those who wronged him? Or, does the truth lie elsewhere? With resources decimated by a flu epidemic, Mike Nash must use unorthodox tactics to expose a web of corruption and deceit spanning the years. All the evidence suggests an inevitable conclusion, but can Mike discover the truth before it is too late for everyone concerned - innocent or guilty?
