Synopsis

From the New York Times best-selling author of the Inspector Banks series comes this haunting standalone tale. In Before the Poison, Hollywood composer Chris Lowe mourns the death of his wife by returning home to his native Yorkshire, where he buys the desolate Kilnsgate House. Soon Chris discovers Kilnsgate's past-a man murdered 60 years ago, his wife convicted of the crime-and becomes convinced that the woman was innocent. As Chris' investigation deepens, it becomes increasingly entwined with his own search for closure.
