Their peaceful rural life is shattered when John Rother disappears and his abandoned car is found. Has he been kidnapped? Or is his disappearance more sinister―connected, perhaps, to his growing rather too friendly with his brother's wife?\nSuperintendent Meredith is called to investigate―and begins to suspect the worst when human bones are discovered on Chalklands farmland. His patient, careful detective method begins slowly to untangle the clues as suspicion shifts from one character to the next.\nThis classic detective novel from the 1930s is now republished for the first time, with an introduction by the award-winning crime writer Martin Edwards.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1464203717\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1464203717.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Bude, John|Edwards, Martin\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
