A Dead Question - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Two weeks away from giving birth, Detective Inspector Honey Laird is at a point when bending down is becoming increasingly difficult and straightening up again almost impossible, when her boss calls upon her to investigate Dr. McGordon . . . her next-door neighbor. On the outside, Dr. McGordon appears to be the perfect doctor, giving free services in poor areas, providing care in underdeveloped countries and even bringing patients to Britain (at his own expense) for special treatments. But when officers knock on his door, looking for witnesses to an accident, Dr. McGordon, panicky and pale, reveals a guilty conscience about something but refuses to say anything. While at first Honey s husband thinks the case is a minor one, designed to keep Honey out of mischief, as she digs deeper it becomes clear that everything and everyone is not as it seems, that the what can be just as mysterious as the who and just as shocking.
