A Daisy Dalrymple mystery. “Detective Inspector Alec Fletcher’s plans to attend his daughter’s sports day are thwarted by the discovery of three bodies buried in Epping Forest.

And when the police discover that the two other victims served with the colonel in the Great War, this becomes a tragic case of long-buried secrets…” IN STOCK FOR IMMEDIATE DESPATCH
