Dead on Course (Lambert and Hook British Crime Mysteries Book 3)
By J. M. Gregson
DISCOVER A PAGE-TURNING MURDER MYSTERY SET IN THE IDYLLIC COTSWOLD HILLS.
Two days into their golfing trip, on the green fairways of Wye Castle country club, an intimate party of friends is slashed from six to five.
After an evening replete with wine and studded with heated quarrels, the four old friends and their two attending wives all have a disturbed night’s sleep. None more so than their self-appointed leader, Guy Harrington.
In the half-light of the following morning, the green keeper discovers his corpse splayed in the small hollow of a drained pond.
Superintendent Lambert and Sergeant Hook are puzzled by the odd disposition of the limbs and the complete absence of blood. They come to the disturbing conclusion that the body was moved several hours after death. But why? And how?
Among the remaining members of the party, Lambert and Hook unearth hidden horrors and sinister passions. As their secrets out, the air thickens with hostility. And Lambert fears the killer will strike again unless he acts quickly.
This gripping police procedural is perfect for fans of Betty Rowlands, Agatha Christie, L. J. Ross, Joy Ellis, M.C. Beaton, or Faith Martin.
