When a man is found dead from gunshot wounds on Hunter's Path, a picturesque spot in Falmouth, it's up to Inspector Bartlett and Constable Boase to find out whodunit ? and, more importantly, why.The dead man, Clicker the Clown, was the main attraction at Martin?s Circus ? and with his reputation as a kindly and well-respected old soul, who would want to kill him? As Bartlett and Boase investigate, they discover old enmities and a close-knit community which doesn?t want to give up its secrets ? even if that means the gallows for some.Meanwhile, the detectives have to combat interference from the higher ranks in the force ? and problems in their personal lives which threaten to spoil the best-laid plans?
