But neither his body nor the car is ever recovered.Peter Manciple, an insurance adjuster for the cautious firm of Phelps, King &amp; Troyte, is one of the people called down to Exmoor to investigate...the accident? But the army shows up, too. And so do a number of ruthless Israelis, and some equally ruthless Palestinians.
