His Majesty's Prison BlackRock is where Evil is sent to die.

None of the killers imprisoned on the island prison, 30 miles off the coast of Scotland, will ever leave.

When Scottish billionaire, social philanthropist, and prison reformer, Ethan Mackay, is murdered during a VIP visit to the island, it becomes dangerously clear that not all the murderers are behind bars.

Cut off from the mainland during a ferocious winter storm, the rest of the VIP tour take refuge in the Governor's residence and patiently wait for the storm to pass.

But what secrets lurk beneath the surface?

What skeletons are hiding behind Sir Malcolm Lambert's closet? How did Times Journalist Esther Friedman's first husband die? Does BlackRock Governor, Johnathon Preece, hide a fatal secret? And what of his wife, the enigmatic and mysterious Elouise Preece? How far would she go to keep her carefully guarded secret? And then there's young Grace Mahone, PA to the recently deceased Ethan Mackay. Is she as innocent as she seems?

In this, a standalone sequel to While You Were Out, Lovelace, daughter of The Cherwell Valley Strangler, and inmate in HMP BlackRock, finds herself trapped on BlackRock among a handful of strangers all with something to hide. Will she unearth the killer before they strike again?
