The Cedar Cage

The boathouse had been built by an Edwardian aristocrat -- from a single cedar of Lebanon -- as a retreat, maybe even a cage, for his glamorous American bride. But in 2008, just weeks after moving into this dream home, Bertie starts to feel uneasy about living inside someone else's fantasy. Obsession takes hold when he becomes convinced that a carpenter, commissioned to fulfil Lord James Newton-Grey's vision, was murdered in the boathouse. His investigations immerse him in a sinister web of family secrets, as tangled and treacherous as the Norfolk marshlands that lie beyond his windows. Readers of THE CEDAR CAGE -- like its characters -- must make up their own minds: is Bertie's strange, unquenchable imagination running riot…or has something genuinely supernatural been at work?
