About this listen

Colin Bannock is hiding quite the secret.

By day, he’s a smooth-talking lawyer. After hours, he is someone else entirely.

He corners Arnold Landon, wanting him to join his society of history fanatics.

Appalled, Arnold declines outright. He’s never been a joiner and, besides, he has enough on his plate already.

He is hunting for a lost and ancient treasure. And he knows the hiding place is close.

Then Bannock’s body washes up on the banks of the River Tyne, battered and bloated beyond recognition.

Was he also chasing the mythic treasure?

The race is on to claim the hoard. And someone out there will stop at nothing to get there first.

In "Murder by the Quay," Roy Lewis presents another excellent murder mystery - this time investigating the Knights Templar and the potential traces of their activities in Scotland. Lewis touches on several topics that brought "The Da Vinci Code" to mind. Lewis's book was first published in 1994 as "The Cross Bearer" and I couldn't help but wonder whether Dan Brown had read it before writing "The Da Vinci Code" and publishing it in 2003.

Roy Lewis never disappoints.
