Sophie Daynes cherishes The Boathouse, inherited from her family and situated in remote, beautiful Cumbria.
But her boorish, layabout husband, in his forties and obsessed with his young mistress, is only interested in its cash value – and how best to get his hands on it.
With both temperatures and passions rising in the height of a searing hot summer, greed, gossip, and mystery combine to make this a volatile visit they won’t forget.
Is the suspicious man living in the woods nearby really a villain on the run?
And who are the shadowy figures ‘stalking’ Sophie from the lake edge?
When the pleasure steamer churns up more than mud, and a grisly package is discovered washed up on the shore, the lives of all connected with the Boathouse are changed dramatically and irrevocably…
‘One of the crime shelf's defter hands.’ Guardian
‘Gwen Moffat creates vivid characters and not only manages a fast-moving, well-patterned plot, but also shows an aptitude for brilliant atmospheric set pieces.’ Daily Mail
Gwen Moffat’s main interests are wilderness areas and the genesis of murder, and all her books have featured one or the other. Moffat has written six travel books and twenty-six novels, including ‘Dying for Love’ and ‘Private Sins’.

About the Author
Gwen Moffat is a British climber and writer. Moffat was a free spirit who loved and lived the Bohemian lifestyle through the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s, making a living from climbing, and becoming the first female British guide. In the late 1940s and early 1950s, she was closely associated with the RAF Mountain Rescue Service in North Wales and helped train many young airmen, once she had agreed to wear boots! She described her life in her classic autobiography Space Below My Feet. She subsequently went on to write detective fiction, in particular the Miss Pink series featuring Melinda Pink, a middle aged magistrate and climber.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Gone Feral
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 May 2014Verified Purchase
Gone Feral is truly possessed of a wild, atavistic quality; as the tale gallops along characters become increasingly bestial, actions increasingly frantic – but the true mastery lies in the quietly brilliant conclusion, imploding below the surface. Fuelled by the worst of human characteristics, greed, money-grabbing schemes and animal lust lead to characters taking the law into their own hands – but, as Chekhov said, put a loaded gun on stage and someone’s going to shoot it. All of this paired with such a peaceful, idyllic setting adds a uniquely chilling edge; this is certainly not a normal whodunit. Indeed there were so many red herrings, dead ends and fruitless leads that I began to question what might have been accidental and what had been done with intent; Moffat keeps the reader guessing until the final page.

The story moved along quickly and clearly. The characters are good and seem real. I didn't like the ending. We're just left hanging.
