An inquest ruled it was a tragic accident, so why does somebody believe it wasn't? In the depths of winter, a snowstorm descends upon the tiny Sussex hamlet of Littleworth. All roads are blocked. Nobody can get in. Nobody can get out.

That evening, the isolated residents gather at the local pub in an apparent display of community spirit and unity. But appearances can be deceptive. Because by the following morning, one of them will be dead...

An accident? Or something more sinister?

In a place where secrets abound and outsiders are viewed with suspicion, can Stanley Messina, private investigator, find a way to the truth?

The Other Path is a page-turning mystery that keeps readers guessing until the very end. It's the first in a series from British author, Jon Neal, perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Richard Osman, JM Dalgleish, LJ Ross and Richard Coles.
