Description
Past Caring by Robert Goddard delves into the mysterious downfall of Edwin Strafford, a distinguished Edwardian Cabinet minister who unexpectedly resigns from his parliamentary career and is rejected by the woman he loves. Seventy years later, history graduate Martin Radford, who is unemployed and disillusioned, embarks on a journey to uncover the truth behind Strafford’s sudden fall from grace. Radford’s search leads him to Madeira, where what seems like a stroke of good fortune quickly spirals into a nightmare. His investigation into long-buried secrets triggers a violent and bizarre chain of events, as he uncovers crimes that have remained unpunished for decades, and finds himself entangled in a dangerous web of lies and murder.
