Directions For Murder
DI Jeff Lincoln investigates the brutal stabbing of writer Christian Darbyshire, killed while looking into the death of Hamilton Vaughn, a popular pantomime dame who took his own life thirty years ago – or was he murdered? Was there any truth in the rumours of sexual abuse behind the scenes at Barbury Theatre before Vaughn died? Who wanted to silence Darbyshire before he could reveal their secrets?
THE PRICE OF SILENCE
A woman is dead and a man is missing. What’s the connection with the death of a schoolboy in 1978?
A Saintly Grave Disturbed
An archaeological dig at Barbury Abbey unearths more than a medieval skeleton when an excavation turns deadly.
The Shame of Innocence
Two teenage girls are found dead and a third girl goes missing. Who can Lincoln trust when even his colleagues are corrupt?
The Promise of Salvation
A grim discovery in Greywood Forest sets off a chain of events leading to murder — and a grieving mother takes the law into her own hands.
A Strange and Murderous Air
