DI Carl McCadden’s latest investigation uncovers the perversion and corruption beneath the placid surface of life in Waterford
The Belview Guesthouse overlooks the city of Waterford. Popular in theatrical circles, it takes the discovery of a woman’s naked body, bludgeoned and flayed and tangled in blood-soaked sheets in one of the bedrooms to bring Inspector McCadden to the residence.
