A novel by Rodney Hobson
Detective Inspector Paul Amos Mystery Series
Book 3: Holy Murder
Detective Inspector Paul Amos is just about to head off on his annual holiday when he gets an urgent phone call from Sir Robert Fletcher, the Chief Constable of Lincolnshire police.
A man has been killed in what appears to be an abseiling accident at St Botolph's Church in Lincolnshire.
When Amos arrives on the scene it quickly becomes clear that this was no accident - Simeon's ropes had been cut on purpose.
Simeon was a local hero, rescuing the farmers from ruin, and loved by all.
And most of the village had turned up to see their 'celebrity' scale the church wall.
So why would anyone want him dead?
As Amos delves deeper into the case, cracks in the story soon begin to appear.
Was Simeon really the benevolent philanthropist he claimed to be?
Or was he more of a sinner than a saint?
From Rodney Hobson, the author of the best-selling 'Dead Money', comes a tale of murder and vengeance. 'Holy Murder' is a gritty murder mystery perfect for fans of Peter James, Peter Robinson and Ian Rankin.
