Bring Forth Your Dead

 

The exhumation of the elderly invalid Edmund Craven proves that he was poisoned, and by one of those closest to him. But the scents are cold and the traces well covered – until Superintendent Lambert and Sergeant Bert Hook investigate. The detectives arrive on the scene twelve months after the victim has been buried. Never before has Lambert had to investigate a murder perpetrated over a year earlier. Gradually he unearths a network of malice and deceit. Craven’s son and daughter, his housekeeper and the American who was his friend all had reason to wish Craven dead. And when new evidence conveniently arises, it is up to the detectives to take the case into their own hands. But the decision almost proves fatal.
