Never Dead is the fifth in Wonny Lea�s DCI Martin Phelps series, set in the thriving Welsh capital city of Cardiff.

As a newly promoted DI it wasn�t long before Matt Pryor was putting his own stamp on an investigation. The sudden death of an elderly man on a local train turns out to be murder and even Professor Moore is surprised by the cause of death.

The photograph found in the dead man�s pocket is one of the �double mysteries� that Matt has to consider and he brings on board the North Wiltshire CID who jump at the chance to investigate Woodcanton Hall and a seemingly reputable charity organisation.

Meanwhile In a temporary departure from his usual role DCI Martin Phelps attempts to unlock the brutal murder of a young Somalian. His body was found a decade ago and at the time nobody could identify him and the police investigation was shoddy. A possible lead was the number of smooth stones arranged like the petals of a flower and acting on a hunch Martin discovered who was placing the stones.

The same names and faces appear in Matt�s case and the one Martin is attempting to solve and so back together they arrive at the identity of the killer but are unable to prevent one final murder.
