When Keith Hill finds the letters of Mary Linskill, an obscure Victorian novelist, during a holiday in Whitby, he is eager to find out how much they are worth. He puts a listing up on eBay with a reserve of £500, and someone puts in an offer.
But in less than 24 hours Keith is murdered.
Local Detective Inspector Frank Miller is sent in to investigate. His team soon finds the man who placed the bid. But only because he's been murdered too …
Dr. Alice Laine, a researcher from the local university is a specialist in Victorian literature, and is writing a book on Linskill. She tells them the letters, being from a near-unknown author, would only fetch a few hundred pounds at most. And only universities would be interested. So why would anyone kill for them?
As he digs deeper into the mystery, DI Miller starts to get close to Alice Laine. But could his attraction to her be clouding his judgement?
As he gets mixed up in domestic disputes, academic feuds and local dramas, the whereabouts of the missing letters remain a mystery …
Can he find the killer before he strikes again? Or will Miller be the next person bidding to die?
