The Truth About Murder - Chris Collett Crime

A Mugging. A Missing Woman. Then a Murder

Stefan Greaves wakes up from a coma. He was brutally mugged while investigating a complaint about a local hospital.

The woman who visited the law firm where Greaves worked had feared something very sinister was going on in the hospital’s postnatal ward. Now she has disappeared.

Rookie policeman, Mick Fraser interviews Greaves. Fraser’s new partner Denny Sutton is a cynical man with secrets of his own. Together Fraser and Greaves try to track down the missing woman.

Then a body is found on the riverbank and a fiendishly complex puzzle emerges. How are these crimes linked and what’s really going on in the police station? Can Fraser and Greaves put the pieces together?
