The Silver Sea

A highly successful business man with a holiday home in St Ives goes missing. His clothes are left on the beach. Has he drowned whilst surfing or has his disappearance been carefully staged?


Months later Felicity thinks she seems him on Tresco, but it can’t be! The missing man is pronounced officially dead, but the case, if there is a

case takes an unexpected and tragic turn.  Keith Penrose, newly appointed chief inspector, gently unravels the layers of deceit and deception only to find he’s left with a mystery at both ends of the investigation. Assistance comes as usual from Felicity, and from a very

unlikely source, his wife Barbara. ‘Your precious Mrs Paradise didn’t think of that!’ And she hadn’t.


The story unfolds against the glorious settings of Tresco and St Michael’s Mount and of course Fizzie’s hometown of St Ives.
