A man is murdered in broad daylight by a stealthy killer in this pitch-perfect WWII crime mystery. September 1939. Inspector Betty Church - one of the few female officers on the force - has arrived from London to fill a vacancy at Sackwater police station. But Betty isn't new here. This is the place she grew up. The place she thought she'd left for good. After a slow start,Betty's called to the train station to investigate a stolen bench. But though there's no bench,there is a body. A smartly dressed man,murdered in broad daylight,with two distinctive puncture wounds in his throat. While the locals gossip about the Suffolk Vampire,Betty Church steels herself to hunt a dangerous killer.
