A British man dies in a fire at a remote farmhouse in the Tuscan hills. A drifter, Joe Vardy, is charged with murder. He says he’s innocent — and claims the dead man’s diaries hold the clue to the dark truth of what happened. Crime writer Lee Armstrong thinks the case could become his next book. But as he investigates, he must confront events which threaten both his rational beliefs and his newly-found happiness. Lee finds he is the writer who has just become the story.
