He had seen drowned people. A sight not to be forgotten.
1950s, rural Ireland. A loner comes across a mysteriously empty car in a field. Knowing he shouldnt approach, but unable to hold back, he soon finds himself embroiled in a troubling missing persons case, as a husband claims his wife may have thrown herself into the sea.
Called in from Dublin to investigate is Detective Inspector Strafford, who soon turns to his old ally the flawed but brilliant pathologist Quirke a man he is linked to in increasingly complicated ways.
