The Punch and Judy Man
The remains of a young woman is found in a shallow grave in the shadow of an abandoned tin mine, deep in darkest Cornwall. A pathologist finds her death to have been suspicious. The investigation is put in the hands of DCI Matthew Prior. At first the murder seems to be the work of a broken, half-crazed lover. But the finding of another, similar grave reveals a far more sinister truth. A serial killer is on the loose.
A nationwide hunt ensues. But Prior's investigation is hampered by a preening senior officer, a rabid media and suspected sightings all over the South West. As winter looms there are fears that the killer has gone to ground. But giving up is not a word Prior understands. He drives his team on, seeking the break-through that will reveal the killer's identity.
