Contains strong language and adult themes.

The idyllic quiet of a picture postcard English village is shattered when a book club member is murdered by his former student and lover.

But why would anyone kill a retired English teacher, a pillar of his community? Perhaps the answer lies in the trail of writing that he, and his killer, left behind: diaries, poems and novels.

Documentary maker Gillian Pachter lifts the lace curtain to reveal a secret wedding, sordid affairs, drug abuse and psychological torture. She enlists the help of James, a former student of the victim, to try and uncover the truth. Buried memories from James' school days provide the final piece of the puzzle, and unlock a dark episode from Gillian’s own past.

A Vespucci, Big Light and Dorothy Street production for Audible. Executive Producer: Frank Spotnitz.
