When Mr Cropper, a sordid and rather disreputable one-legged, one-eyed, London private investigator arrives in Torquay in the summer of 1955, he allows people to believe he is a tourist looking to invest in a business. Hired by the young and attractive Dr April Fox to investigate the death of her elderly father who it seemed had taken his own life and her mother who was almost buried alive, Mr Cropper undertakes the task of unraveling her cases. However, by exposing those circumstances, it causes him to disclose unlicensed distillery offences, multiple instances of unwanted pregnancies, blackmail, adultery, lost mothers, fathers and sisters and incest that exist behind Torquay’s sweet and gentle facade as he exposes the angry, sordid and complex family secrets of its most respectable funereal businesses, and even the devoutly religious clergy.
