About this listen

When retired detective Frank Marshal believes that a local man’s suicide is suspicious, he and his friend Annie investigate, only to unearth a dark web of conspiracy, government cover-ups and betrayal.

Frank Marshal lives in a remote part of Snowdonia / Eryi with his wife Rachel who is suffering from dementia. When Frank finds a local man who has taken his own life, he is convinced that his death is more than suspicious, despite the misgivings of local police who believe there is nothing more to the man’s death.

With the help of his best friend Annie, a retired Crown Court Judge, they discover the man, a local teacher, had been suspended from work over allegations of inappropriate behaviour. Is this the key to his death? However, when Frank and Annie unearth a class legal action of ex-British soldiers who are still suffering from Gulf War syndrome, it seems that the man’s death might be a result of this instead.

Can Frank and Annie uncover the sinister truth behind the murder? Or will a brutal killer strike again to hide their tracks?

False Witness is the second book in the Frank Marshal Crime Thriller series from multi-million bestselling author Simon McCleave. If you like dark thrillers, psychologically complex characters and shocking twists, then you’ll love Simon McCleave’s pulse-pounding novel. Perfect for fans of LJ Ross, JM Dalgleish, Rachel McLean and JD Kirk.

A great story featuring lovely warm characters with lots of age related worries but with loads of wisdom and experience. As well as some really nasty bad guys to rev up the suspence. An excellent recipe for a tale I just couldn't put down.

An exciting story with lots of twists and turns. The final twist was totally unexpected.
