About this listen

A young couple discover human remains buried in the garden of their new house. Could this be the resting place of 14-year-old Amanda Knight, who disappeared from the same garden two decades before and was never seen again?

The problem comes almost as a relief to DCI Slider, still suffering from the fallout of his previous case. He is not popular with the Powers That Be, and his immediate boss, Detective Superintendent Porson, reckons that at least this little puzzle will keep Slider out of trouble.

After all, this is the coldest of cold cases. Most of the suspects and principal players are now dead too, and all passion is long spent. Or is it?

A very enjoyable read. A complex plot that will keep hardened whodunit fans occupied for hours

Brilliant

Another really enjoyable Slider story, although I did guess the ending quite early. Still great

Great listen again.

I just love the Bill Slider series. The plots are serious but there is also a lot of humour - and humanity - in the various characters. Terry Wale brings them all to life superbly. I hope there will be many more.

Another great Bill Slider story
