reviewed on + 61 more book reviews


Typical 'Sloan' mystery...good plot, good characters! Catherine Aird is a "must" for all readers of this genre.
Dangerous moonlight illuminated the English skies the night a German bomb razed the houses in Lamb Lane, Berebury. Then three decades quietly passed before a careless workman's pickaxe struck an old skeleton buried under the wreckage... and exhumed a new case of murder for Detective Inspector CD. Sloan. Time had blacked out the clues. All that remained were a body... an unborn baby. . . and a bullet. Could the Inspector's uncanny investigative instincts now unearth a killer? Or would this delayed action affair explode and send another victim to moulder in the grave?
