A wealthy businessman lay dead on his doorstep in May, 2012, from a single shot to the head. Gerry Hogan was an honest, hard-working family man with no known enemies. His two young sons stood frozen with shock as Gerry's partner cradled him in her arms.

In Wiltshire, England, the Crime Review Team headed by Gus Freeman, was formed to investigate cold cases. With old witness statements plus fresh clues, the hunt can be on again, and Freeman and his team have several successful cold-case investigations behind them.

Now, however, when Gus Freeman and the team interview Gerry's friends and family, they get a shock. At the start, they had a handful of suspects. Soon they have too many. Why? This twelfth case for the Crime Review Team is their most baffling mystery so far.
