A troubled English boy sets out to uncover the truth about his father's death, from the Edgar Awardâ€"winning author of the Chronicles of Brother Cadfael.
 
Following the death of his father at an archaeological dig in Greece, young Crispin Almond returned to England and the mother he barely knew. Now a difficult, morose, and unreachable teenager, he has been expelled from every school he's attended. At her wits' end, his mother decides Crispin needs a positive male role model and turns to a former friend, who disappeared from her life sixteen years earlier when she rejected his proposal of marriage.
 
Hired by the woman he always loved to be her son's tutor, Evelyn Manville is determined to break through Crispin's protective shell. But the closer he gets to the troubled teen, the more unsettling their relationship becomes. Because, despite having no evidence, Crispin believes his father's death in Greece was no accident, and he's been secretly manipulating events to prove it. And now his plan could be drawing a murderer into all of their lives.
 
With Death Mask, the Edgar, Agatha, and Gold Dagger Awardâ€"winning author of the Brother Cadfael Mysteries delivers a stand-alone novel that is “a literate and original piece of work” (Kirkus Reviews).
