Description
One foggy December night, Detective Inspector Andy Horton is called to the site of a burning boat on Horsea Marina. He finds a charred body onboard.
The autopsy reveals startling evidence of foul play. The victim was Tom Brundall, a wealthy financier from Guernsey. And Tom had terminal cancer. What made him sail back to his hometown of Portsmouth? And who would kill a dying man?
Horton is determined to find out.
But then another body is found and Horton is forced to confront the past. Not just the victim’s, but the mystery surrounding his own mother’s disappearance over thirty years ago.
As the pieces of the puzzle begin to unravel, it becomes clear that Horton is up against a deadly adversary who will stop at nothing to prevent the truth from coming out.
Can Horton catch a killer and find out what happened to his mother all those years ago?
This absolutely gripping detective mystery is perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, Joy Ellis, and Rachel McLean.

Originally published in 2008, so adjust for some technology.
DI Andy Horton lives on his boat, motors about on a Harley wearing black leather, and is a bit of an unconventional copper. There is this recent divorce, a young daughter, and his mother who split when he was ten thereby abandoning him to the foster care system.
This convoluted case has him squaring off against the department and a killer who also has him in his sights. Then there's the WOW about finding out that there was more to his mother's disappearance than he ever knew, and being the only one to see that the current murder cases are interconnected. Excellent!
Narrated very clearly and implacably by voice actor Colin Mace.
