Last Walk Home

A standalone mystery from the author of the Kelsey and Lambert novels.

 A number of people stood to benefit from Harry Mallinson's death and Henry Mallinson was old and sick and very rich.

 His estranged elder son needed money for his business. His younger son did not want to see his father's will changed. His pretty daughter-in-law needed money to lay of ghost from her past to rest. His godson was behind with instalments on a motorcycle. His nurse needed a few thousand to buy a son a small-holding and his secretary a few hundred to buy herself expensive clothes.

 So when Henry Mallinson died - not from natural causes - there was no lack of suspects for the police.

In Loving Memory

Two sisters' bodies are discovered near the industrial town of Cannonbridge. As detectives Lambert and Kelsey investigate the double murder, they find themselves upsetting the locals.

 The girl in the green anorak who came into the pub one rainy evening was looking for her sister, who had left home four years before.

 Now, because an unexpected legacy could not be paid until both girls were accounted for, she is hot on the scent, never suspecting that for her it is a scent of death and that each step she takes to try to trace her sister Helen will soon be followed by Detective Chief Inspector Kelsey and Sergeant Lambert.

 It is apparent that the vital clue they are seeking lie in Helen's life between the time she left home and the November night when she had vanished without trace. Patiently Kelsey and Lambert follow Helen through various jobs, to the house where she had a flat, the clinic where she had an abortion, the young man from whom she bought a car.

 At no point could it be proved that Helen was dishonest, yet Kelsey suspects that the hard-working, helpful secretary knew more about her employers and their practices than some of them wished. And therein lies the clue to a double murder.

 Could the killer be Esther Milroy, who is discovered to have booked an expensive holiday just prior to the tragedy? Or is Esther's brother Mathew- facing financial ruin before his stepmother's death- the more likely suspect? And what about Verity Thorburn, spurned by her lover, firmly believing that if only she had a bigger disposable income the man who got away would come running back to her?

 DCI Kesley investigates and, this time, it's personal - the dead woman was a friend. He'll do everything he can to put her killer behind bars.
