When Julia gathered Barker's family at Peridale Manor for his

surprise birthday party, she did not expect it to result in murder!
Minutes before the celebration is scheduled to begin, Barker's
nephew, Luke, is found strangled in his bed, putting an end to Julia's
dream of a quiet family get together. Only one of Barker's family
could have murdered the young man, but which one?

Thanks to a botched burglary in the village, the police station is

clogged up, forcing Barker to go rogue with Julia. He shuts down the
manor, vowing to solve the murder before sunrise, but will he be
able to pin the murder on one of his brothers or their wives? Julia
quickly discovers that each member of his family has a secret, but
which one led to Luke's death? In a race against the clock, Julia
must dig up the past, but can she uncover the truth without tearing
Barker's family apart forever?

 CHAPTER ONE

J ulia hated lying. There had not been a day in the last
two weeks where she had not lied to Barker. Some of
them had been white lies that had easily rolled off her
tongue, and others had been big and complicated lies that had stuck
in her throat and made her feel sick. What she hated more than the
constant lying was how good she was at it.
Standing on the edge of the platform, Julia checked her watch
for the third time that minute. She looked up and down Peridale’s
tiny train station, the murky early November sky swirling above. She
was glad the station was completely deserted. The last thing she
wanted was for one of Peridale’s gossips to spot her. Even the least
juicy titbits of information had a way of spreading around the village
like a forest fire in the height of summer. It would start with ‘guess
who I saw waiting for a train? Julia South! I thought she drove?’
which would somehow find its way to Barker within the hour. She
would not usually mind being the subject of idle village gossip,
except Barker thought she was clothes shopping with Jessie in
Oxford. It was a simple lie that had been necessary, and one she
knew Barker would not question. There had been no way he would
have wanted to spend his Sunday afternoon shopping with two
women, and he would not notice that they were lacking shopping
bags when they returned later in the evening. Even if he did notice,
a simple ‘we didn’t find anything we liked’ would put an end to it,
and they would eat dinner none the wiser. Another day, another set
of lies.
“The train is running two minutes late,” Jessie called from the
small ticket office, her voice echoing off the cream and emerald
green tiles, which had not been changed since the station’s opening
in 1891. “When are they ever on time?”
Julia’s seventeen-year-old foster daughter joined her on the
platform edge, kicking a drink can onto the tracks with the tip of her
Doc Martens. She peered from under her low hood, her eyes tired
and red. Jessie would not admit it, but she had been crying again.
“It will get easier,” Julia assured her, squeezing Jessie’s shoulder
firmly. “The first heartbreak is always the hardest.”
“I’m not heartbroken,” Jessie mumbled, shrugging off Julia’s
hand. “I dumped him.”
Julia nodded her understanding as Jessie sat down on the green
wrought-iron bench under the hand-painted ‘Platform Two - This
Way’ sign. Even though Jessie had been the one to formally end
things with Billy Matthews, the boy she had been seeing for the last
couple of months, it had been Billy’s decision to suddenly enlist in
the army. Julia sympathised with Jessie, but she could not blame
Billy for wanting to leave the village. There were not many
opportunities for boys like him in Peridale, especially ones who had
been raised on the Fern Moore Estate.
It had been a couple of weeks since Jessie had agreed to let Julia
officially adopt her, and nine months since Julia had taken Jessie in
off the streets after catching her stealing cakes from her café. In
that time, Julia and Jessie’s bond was as close to mother and
daughter as it could be, but it did not mean Julia had all of the
answers when it came to dealing with teenage heartbreak. She was
trying to be there for Jessie as much as she could, but Jessie was
not the type of girl who willingly showed her emotions.
The shrill scream of metal on metal pierced through the cold air,
signalling the approaching train. Julia looked into the tunnel, the
yellowy headlights illuminating the darkness.
“They’re here,” she said, almost to herself. “It’s really happening.”
 Nerves bubbled over in her stomach, a culmination of the last
two weeks of meticulous planning. She almost could not believe she
had somehow pulled it together.
Jessie stuffed her mobile phone into her pocket to join Julia by
the edge of the platform as the train screeched to a halt in front of
them. A robotic female voice announced the arrival of the train, as
well as the rest of the stations it would stop at before it reached its
final destination of Bath. Julia looked at Jessie, an anxious smile
shaking her lips. Jessie did not even attempt to return it.
The electronic doors shuddered open, snapping into place
against the metal shell of the train. Burnt oil mixed with Julia’s
nerves, further turning her stomach. She stepped back, suddenly
realising she did not even know what they looked like.
An attractive woman with straight, strawberry blonde hair
stepped onto the platform, a designer weekend bag over her
shoulder. She was wearing a pale cream trench coat, figure-hugging
black jeans, and heels to match. Julia would have put her in her
early forties. A similarly aged bald man with dazzling blue eyes
followed the woman, his thin nose bent to the left of his slender
face. He was wearing a leather jacket over a blue polo shirt buttoned
up to the neck, paired with stylish, fitted pale blue jeans, and he too
was carrying a designer weekend bag. A younger man in a shirt and
tie, who appeared to be in his early-twenties jumped off next, with
his own weekend bag. He seemed to be a direct genetic result of the
man and the woman. He was tall and slender with a thin nose, and
he had coiffed strawberry blond hair, which was receding at the
temples. The man and woman looked around the station with mild
curiosity, but the young man did not bother looking up from his
phone. The three of them had naturally tanned skin, hinting at
several tropical holidays a year. Julia waited for someone else to get
off the train, almost certain the attractive family was not who she
had been anxiously waiting for. A whistle pierced the air, causing the
doors to shudder back into place. The train eased out of the station,
leaving the trio behind.
“Julia?” the man with the crooked nose asked, his voice
belonging to that of the man she had spoken to that morning on the
telephone. “Julia South?”
“Yes,” she said, suddenly smiling at the new arrivals. “Sorry! I
was expecting someone who looked like Barker. Ethan, isn’t it?”
“That’s right,” the man dropped his bag to shake Julia’s hand.
“Don’t worry, none of us look alike. We all have different fathers.
Well, except Theo and me.”
“Oh,” Julia said, trying to hide how little Barker had told her
about his family. “And you must be Ethan’s wife?”
“It’s so lovely to meet you,” the woman said, her voice soft and
soothing, reminding Julia of a radio presenter her gran listened to in
the afternoons. “I’m Dawn. You’re so pretty! Is your dress vintage?”
“It is,” Julia said, blushing as she looked down at her 1940s
yellow and pink polka-dot dress. “I think I should have opted for
something a little warmer.”
“Don’t be silly!” Dawn cried, winking at Julia with a playful grin.
“Style doesn’t care about the weather.”
Julia did not admit her love for vintage fashion came from the
way her mother used to dress and less about making a fashion
statement.
“This must be your daughter?” Ethan asked, suddenly turning to
Jessie. “It’s nice to meet you.”
“Foster daughter,” Jessie corrected him bluntly, accepting the
man’s handshake weakly.
“We’re in the process of adoption,” Julia added, apologising for
Jessie’s abruptness with a smile. “It takes a while. How was your
journey?”
“I can’t get a signal!” the young man cried, pointing his phone up
to the sky, ignoring Julia’s question. “I only have one bar!”
“This is our son, Luke,” Ethan said, slapping the boy on the
shoulder as Luke stared at his phone. “Forgive him. He thinks he’ll
die if his emails don’t refresh once a minute.”
“It’s for business, Dad,” the boy snapped, skipping the
introductions. “Is there Wi-Fi where we’re staying?”
“I think so,” Julia replied uncertainly. “You’ll be staying with my
dad and his wife at Peridale Manor. I did try to get you into the B&B,
but Evelyn closes up every winter. She’s travelling around New
