When a man is murdered in the woods and the main suspect appears to be a big-footed legend, amateur sleuth Hannah Ives steps in to solve the mystery.

But when Martin Radcliffe, a professional debunker, is found murdered, surrounded by gigantic footprints, the culprit appears, or was meant to appear, obvious: Bigfoot. Fantasy or fact?
