Cambridge is sweltering during an unusually hot summer. To Jackson Brodie, former police inspector turned private investigator, the world consists of one accounting sheet - Lost on the left, Found on the right - and the two never seem to balance. Jackson has never felt at home in Cambridge, and has a failed marriage to prove it. He is at that dangerous age when men suddenly notice that they're going to die eventually, inevitably, and there isn't a thing they can do about it. Surrounded by death, intrigue and misfortune, his own life is brought sharply into focus. CONTAINS ADULT THEMES AND STRONG LANGUAGE.
