Book excerpt: The third novel in the award-winning Detective Superintendent Roy Grace crime series. On the night Brian Bishop murdered his wife, he was sixty miles away, asleep in bed at the time.

As Grace digs deeper behind the facade of the Bishops' outwardly respectable lives, it starts to become clear that all is not at all as it first seemed. And then he digs just a little too far, and suddenly the fragile stability of his own troubled, private world is facing destruction...
