Murder on the Farm - Detective Inspector Skelgill Investigates

NEW FOR 2023 - STAND-ALONE, #21 IN THE SERIES. MEET MAVERICK BRITISH DETECTIVE DI SKELGILL... "A COMPELLING BRITISH CRIME MYSTERY."

SEE NO EVIL, HEAR NO EVIL, SPEAK NO EVIL ... A reality documentary crew is on the hunt for a victim. An unsolved murder from the 1970s that could leave the authorities red-faced. Celebrity criminologist Professor Simeon Freud plans to bask in the glory.

Posing as a researcher, DS Jones joins the production team, but Skelgill must work in the shadows. His instincts rebel - not least that his protégé is prey to a narcissist on the one hand and a killer on the other.

As evidence mounts, his unease grows: is there an altogether more sinister explanation, a cover-up that will not just embarrass the police force, but shake its very foundations?

And will Skelgill get there first?
