Hi
Just received this in today's post, so it will go to the top of the to be
scanned list.
The Kill Call
by
Stephen Booth
The body of a well-dressed man is spotted on a rain-swept Derbyshire moor.
Yet an anonymous caller reports the same body lying half a mile away. Called
in to investigate the discovery, detectives DS Diane Fry and DC Ben Cooper
become entangled in the violent world of hunting and hunt saboteurs, horse
theft and a little known sector of the meat trade.
As Fry follows a complex trail of her own to unravel the shady business
interests of the murder victim, Cooper realizes that the answer to the case
might lie deep in the past. History is everywhere around him in the Peak
District landscape - particularly in the plague village of Eyam, where an
outbreak of Black Death has been turned into a modern-day tourist
attraction.
But, even as the final solution is revealed, both Fry and Cooper find
themselves having to face up to the disturbing reality of the much more
recent past.
