The friendly, coastal town of Warrenpoint holds a secret.

Alice Bethany has the perfect life working as a teacher in the city and laughing with her sympathetic boyfriend, a lawyer called Barry Thornton.

However, when she finds a weathered knife in her cellar, she begins to realise that things are not quite as they seem in the Bethany family.

A Halloween party leaves Alice with some startling questions about her past, and she sets off to mysterious Warrenpoint to find some answers.

At first the people of Warrenpoint are articulate and friendly. She is intrigued by the curiously helpful lawyer, Roger Blunder. However, after he introduces her to hard meth, Alice slowly finds herself drawn into a web of fraud, burglary and perhaps, even assassination.

Can Alice resist the charms of Roger Blunder and uncover the secret of the weathered old knife before it's too late, or will her demise become yet another Warrenpoint legend?
