Plot[]
John Henderson is slain and a postcard bearing the words "Blood Toucheth Blood" found at the scene as it was in Jerry's car. Flecks of paint are found at both murder scenes, incriminating Evie, who had been painting her father's boat but then Jerry's girlfriend arrives, with a memory stick he had sent her. This shows not only that Storme Gas were into bribery but that Henderson was having an affair with Andy Belshaw's wife, making a crime of passion now a motive. Evie becomes more and more under suspicion when it transpires that she was Jerry's mole regarding the gas company but the discovery that another islander has a deep family secret leads the investigation towards its conclusion.
