Ten year old Josh Banks has gone missing; DS Bev Morriss and her partner
DC Mac Tyler are leading the investigation under the direction of DCI
Lance Knight. When the body of the lad is found, Morriss realises that
his glasses are missing.
It didn't take long to find a possible perpetrator. A witness named
someone they had seen near where the body was found, and the man had
history. Unfortunately, there is proof that absolves him of the crime,
despite a child's sock being found at his place. Was that a plant?
The day after the man who was released is found dead, his body hit by a
train. The pathologist indicates that he was dead before the train hit
him. Surprisingly the press knows this detail, although the police
hadn't released it. Is there a bent copper at Highgate?
When a second suspect dies after being questioned, the team experiences confusion. Is someone killing kiddie fiddlers?
More violence occurs in this murder mystery before author Maureen Carter brings it to its tragic conclusion. A very good read.
