Detective William Murdoch was caught up in a maelstrom of confusing cases in Toronto’s busy streets, each one more complex than the last.
The owner of a nearby construction company was shot, and the community was shocked. The scent of betrayal pervaded the modest barbershop where the execution took place as Murdoch dug deeper into the investigation.
Subsequently, the Scottish dancer’s stabbing exposed long-standing grudges held within the Highland Games. With a sharp mind, Murdoch worked his way through the maze-like webs of long-standing clan rivalries, revealing the truth by pulling apart the complex historical threads.
Amid all of this, Murdoch was drawn into the flamboyant world of a devoted nun and a charismatic preacher. The truth became visible like a light in the darkness as he removed the layers of deceit surrounding the unexpected death at the gospel revival.
This illuminated the complex web of lies woven by those who would take advantage of faith for their own gain. The detective’s resolve was put to the test like never before when spy Terrence Meyers recruited Murdoch.
