Description
Late at night on a deserted Chester ring road, a man is run down and killed. But is it an accident, suicide, or murder?
First thing next day, Inspector Walter Darriteau is on the case. The dead man was a lay preacher up for promotion. Surely that couldn’t be relevant, but they are zealous and jealous in that game. Or could it be something more sinister? Why didn’t the driver stop?
And his wife doesn’t seem too upset about it. Her main concern is the insurance policy that should pay off their mortgage. But where was she when the accident happened?
The Murder Diaries – Seven Times Over is the first book in a series of twelve standalone Walter Darriteau cases. It’s a fast-paced, thought-provoking novel with a dash of humor, and twists and turns aplenty.
If you enjoy English detective stories, maybe you should investigate Walter Darriteau and his close-knit team.
