BOOK SEVEN, PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED AS “A SKELETON IN THE CLOSET”, REPUBLISHED ON 19TH APRIL 2024 BY JOFFE BOOKS RETITLED “DEATH IN THE RIVER”

Who doesn’t have at least one skeleton in the closet?

But if you had more than one, which would rattle loudest?

Dave Slater returns to work after an injury to find himself embroiled in yet another disciplinary shambles. His interrogation at the hands of the aptly named Detective Inspector Grimm is interrupted, however, when Tinton Police Station is rocked by an explosion.

When Slater rushes to the scene, he is shocked to find a bomb blast has killed a friend and colleague – who shouldn’t even have been in the building in the first place. Vowing to find justice for his friend, Slater throws himself into the investigation to find the mystery bomber.

But he soon finds secrets lie just below the surface, and his friend’s life may not have been all it seemed.
