But instead of being welcomed back again, Natalie enters a baffling world of deception. In the community of Little Downey, everybody appears to harbour a mystical key, including her father, Frank, the village butcher, who won’t discuss the circumstances surrounding Natalie’s mother’s disappearance, but who can Natalie trust if not really her own father? Particularly when it becomes clear her protector and confidante, Dr Moses, is not all he appears. In the meantime, a spate of unexplained clifftop suicides offers seen the seaside holiday resort go into decline. Will be the villagers somehow involved or is definitely something even more sinister at the job?
