Despite the inquisitive villagers, Caroline is happy and the world is good.until a mysterious young man backpacking through the countryside arrives at the door. He says his name is Peter Bagshaw, but Caroline can't help noticing his physical resemblance to Marius. Is he Marius' son?What else has Marius hidden from Caroline?
Who is Marius anyway
Is everything about him a lie?
Then a murder occurs.
