Beschrijving
Ricky Alleyn, carrying the weight of his father's legacy as a celebrated detective, has retreated to a solitary life in a remote setting. Seeking peace from the chaos of the world and perhaps even a chance to define his own identity, he grapples with the shadow cast by Roderick Alleyn, a figure both revered and daunting in the realm of crime-solving. However, tranquility eludes him, as the tranquility of his surroundings is shattered by a sinister murder.
As the mystery unfolds, Ricky finds himself pulled into the investigation, compelled to confront not only the chilling crime but also the implications of his own lineage. The isolation of his retreat becomes a backdrop for a gripping exploration of familial expectation and personal ambition, as he teams up with old acquaintances who are also entangled in the case. This journey requires him to reconcile his past with his aspirations, forcing him to define himself beyond his father’s impressive shadow.
Ultimately, the investigation reveals deeper layers of intrigue and suspense that test Ricky's resolve and instincts. In navigating this web of deception and danger, he must confront who he is, determined to carve out his own path in a world where the past looms heavily. Will he emerge as his own man, or is he fated to remain lost in the past?
