The Woman at Half Past Five

A sealed crate of glass negatives should have stayed buried in a photographer's cellar. Harriet Bramber opens it anyway — and finds proof that the woman seen waving on the lawn at half past five was not the woman who drowned that afternoon, and that her own father hanged himself for a crime nobody committed. In the fen town of Wickholm, evidence burns, witnesses fall silent, and the only person who knows the truth cannot speak it aloud.
