This was my first book by this author. It takes place in Wales at an exclusive lake home development called The Shore. There is some resentment between the English and Welsh residents. But Rhys Lloyd and his business partner Jonty invite locals and vacationers alike to the big New Years Eve party. By midnight Rhys is found floating dead in the lake and the murder investigation begins. The tale is told in 2 timelines-the present investigation and past events leading to the fateful night. There is a huge cast of characters and they are all suspects. So many secrets including a whopper of a secret carried by our protagonist, DC Ffion Morgan. As the past events unfold we find Rhys is a pretty horrible man and everyone has a reason to want him dead. It took awhile to get to know the characters (some likeable, some not so much). There are quite a few twists and surprises making it hard to guess the murderer. I enjoyed it and I want to read more of DC Morgan.
