About this listen

A dying estate. A fractured family. A killer hiding in plain sight.

When a prominent landowner goes missing, private investigator Atticus Priest is drawn into a web of secrets that stretch from the rolling fields of Wiltshire to the darkest corners of the past. The ancient estate of Brookmere—seat of the once-mighty Ainsley family—is crumbling, its future threatened by inheritance disputes, hidden debts, and buried scandal.

As Atticus peels back layers of resentment, envy, and ambition, he begins to suspect that the roots of the case run far deeper than the present—into old betrayals, historic injustices, and a legacy someone is willing to kill for. But time is running out, and Atticus is not the only one asking questions.

Some truths were never meant to surface.

And someone will do anything to keep them buried.

The narrator sounds exhausted! Sounds like he’s reading a list, such an annoying cadence that detracts from the story.
