The Nine Bright Shiners (DCI Webb Mystery Book 5)

â€˜A superbly crafted, riveting, page-turner of a readâ€™ â€“ Booklist

Jan Coverdale's problems began when the police found a body dressed in tramp's clothing, with incongruous green sequins on his lapel.

He looked like her half-brother Edward, whose wallet was in his pocket.

But hadn't Edward and his wife flown to Peru?

As DCI Webb begins his investigations into this strange case, it is thrown wide open.

The true identity of the victim was Guy Marriott, an investigative journalist looking into a story about some mysterious and fraudulent drawings.

But why was the body dressed so shabbily? And what was the meaning of those nine sequins?

What did Guy Marriott know that was dangerous enough to get him killed?

Webb widens the net of his search. But after spending the day in London, Jan and her family return to find their house broken into.

The housekeeper is dead and she begins to fear for their lives...

Edward may be missing, but his wallet links him intrinsically to the scene of the crime.

Could he be the culprit?

And could the descendants of some suspicious old explorers, Langley, Peel and Cody, be suspects?

They are all bound by and old expedition in Peru and the missing jewels that haven't been seen since, worth thousands...

DCI Webb decides itâ€™s time to track down Edward Langley in Peru to solve the mystery and find his killer before it is too late.

The Nine Bright Shiners is a fast-paced crime thriller, from a master of the genre.
