The Sedleigh Hall Murder
(1981)(A Certain Blindness)
(The first book in the Eric Ward series)A novel by Roy Lewis
In the eyes of solicitor Eric Ward there
was something odd about Arthur Egan's life and death.
But Ward was a former police inspector, and trained to be suspicious.
Egan's estate comprised a large sum, to go
to an heir no-one knew he had. Ward made no progress tracing the dead man's offspring, but he
did discover Egan had served a term for manslaughter, and that the evidence against him may
have been planted. Why had he accepted his fate so meekly?
Despite warnings that he was wasting the
firm's time, Ward persisted in his investigations -which soon led to murder. And by the time he realized why, he learned his life and career were both at risk.
Genre: Mystery
