Massive Pawson reissue campaign from A&B. When Dr Clive Jordans dazzling career is brought to an abrupt end by a bullet his colleagues are devastated - especially the female ones. If the doctor hadnt been as discreet as an undertakers cough Detective Inspector Charlie Priest of the East Pennine force would suspect a jealous husband. But its not going to be that simple. And Charlie has another case on his hands that hed give his eyeteeth to solve. Janet Saunders description of her attacker makes him easy to find but his story doesnt quite gel with hers. She couldnt get enough of him he says; shes only complaining because he dumped her. Charlie knows for certain theres a killer on the loose - and almost certainly a rapist as well. The chances of bagging either of them seem slim but Charlies a lot tougher and smarter than his affable manner indicates and thats bad news for the villains on his patch.
