Only Living Witness (Millson and Scobie Crime Thrillers Book 6)
By Malcolm Forsythe
A BODY BURIED UNDER A PATIO HERALDS THE START OF A MURDER SPREE AND MILLSON AND SCOBIE’S TOUGHEST CASE YET.
For twenty-five years, the remains of a young man lay beneath the patio of a house in Great Yeldham. When those remains are finally unearthed, DCI Millson and DS Scobie must piece together the man’s history, with nowhere to turn but the past.
Then a body is discovered on the Essex mudflats, and the past catches up with the present. A yacht, seen in the vicinity the previous night, is found to belong to Robert Forman – whose father owned the house in Great Yeldham.
But Forman dies before he can be questioned. Only one witness remains alive: Robert Forman’s sister. She’s currently in hiding. But the killer knows who she is, and will stop at nothing to silence her.
