As they dissect the initial police investigation, they unearth alarming shortcomings and missed leads. Clues remain elusive, secrets are guarded, and the truth dances tantalizingly out of reach. At the heart of the mystery lies a simple yet perplexing question: Who was the person Katherine hurriedly dashed out to meet that ill-fated evening?This perfect blend of detective mystery and everyday life will delight fans of Sally Rigby, Faith Martin, Joy Ellis, Simon McCleave, and Pauline Rowson. PRAISE FOR TED TAYLER:“Ted Tayler brilliantly weaves the details of the mysterious murder dropping breadcrumbs for readers to follow. We follow Freeman and his team as they interview witnesses, suspects, and friends of the victim. Along with his liberal use of British colloquialisms, he enriches the flavour of the tale. His prose brings the investigation to life. I think Gus Freeman will be as appealing as The Phoenix. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a solid mystery.” Elizabeth. “Tayler's ability to give multiple dimensions to his characters gives his books a genuine slant. He works the relationships between his characters smoothly into his plots." Patrick. “Gus Freeman is a multi-dimensional character who is not only called on to help solve a crime, but also deal with his personal issues. It is always a joy to read this author's stories. He is not just a writer but a great storyteller.” Amy Shannon. “Another great story in this series to follow and try to figure out what will happen next.” Amazon Customer.
