Description
A manor, set amongst the rolling hills, between sprawling cities of 21st century technology. Vogel McClennan, seventeen, advocate of chewing gum, devotee of The Details and with no defined direction in life, finds herself thrown into the path of Detective Samuel Jacobs, tirelessly controlled and unpunctual, as an apprentice. A business call to the manor results in a death by morning, and certainly - in the style of such things - it is murder. Apprentice McClennan is in no way prepared for the hostilities of investigation, interrogation and - above all - mortality. But she has to be. The halls of Carroll House grow cold on the trail of a murderer, and amongst the eclectic residents, history and peril, a dance with a criminal taunts her at every turn.
