A dead woman. A living child. A name that changes everything.

Josiah Broadbrim — the legendary Quaker detective — knows how to read the dead. One glance at the purple marks on a stranger's throat tells him everything the village of Bluewater refuses to believe: this was no accident, no storm, no sad accident of the lake.

This was murder.

Broadbrim arrives at Georgian Bay hunting a missing millionaire — Norman Meredith, vanished from his grand estate at Stonelow Grange without a trace. But when a dead woman washes ashore in an open boat, her living infant beside her, and the name Meredith stitched into the child's linen, two mysteries collapse violently into one.

Someone killed the wife. Someone staged the disappearance. And someone — Broadbrim is certain — is already watching him from the shadows, ready to ensure the truth never surfaces.

As Broadbrim follows the trail from a remote Canadian fishing village to the gilded corridors of Stonelow Grange, the conspiracy around him grows darker. A daring impersonation is underway. Millions hang in the balance. And the killer knows his name.

Old Broadbrim has faced ruthless men before. But this enemy has already murdered a mother in cold blood.

Can he expose the imposter before the next death is his own?
