They all saw him. But how do you solve a murder when the prime suspect doesn't exist?
The Man Who Wasn't There
The case of the Jumping Twins almost consumed Margo Penni, pushing her to the edge of sanity. Two years later, still traversing the ebbing tide of grief and piecing herself back together, Margo is approached by Charlie Wolfherd.
Wealthy, fragile, and desperate, Charlie stands accused of slaughtering his best friend. His only defence? The real murderer is the man he loves—a partner who has suddenly vanished, leaving zero digital footprints, no physical evidence, and not a single witness to confirm he ever existed.
Determined to separate delusion from design, Margo follows the thread to Ruby Page, a woman serving a life sentence for a murder she claims was orchestrated by her own phantom lover—a man who, once again, has left no proof of existence behind.
Tangled in the salt spray and fog of Haylam Cove lies a twisted killer straddling decades, leaving destruction in his wake. As Margo tries to navigate a game of Cluedo with chess pieces, her own unravelling mind threatens to betray her. To catch a phantom, she must risk losing her grip on reality entirely.
