A road leading to Rome. Former DCI Dan Armstrong has been living and working in Florence for nearly three years - yet somehow Rome has always eluded him. That is until glamorous TV celebrity Tamsin Goodfaith turns up with a request he can’t refuse: investigate her uncle’s suspicious death in the Eternal City. Murder at the castle. Philip Hastings was a billionaire financier found dead at his magnificent - if slightly spooky - medieval castle in the Roman hills. Dan and his faithful canine companion Oscar soon find themselves surrounded by luxury secrets and more suspects than sightseeing opportunities. This time it's personal. But when a second murder follows close behind the case turns dangerously personal. With whispers of ghosts and crumbling alibis Dan and Oscar must sniff out the truth before he becomes the next victim. Harder to crack than castle walls - and harder still than stopping Oscar from stealing snacks - this Roman holiday is anything but relaxing.
