The discovery in a lay-by of Bradley Pine's body - bludgeoned to death and then mutilated - put an end to his chances of becoming the next MP for the constituency and started an investigation for Inspector Charlie Woodend and his team. Pine had not been murdered in the lay-by and Woodend could not understand why the murderer had taken the risk of leaving the body in such a public place. The more he delved into the case the more he became convinced that the motive for the murder lay in a tragedy that had happened on a mountainside some three years earlier.

If this type of police procedural novel appeals to you then you might like to try some that are slightly off the beaten track. W J Burley began writing in the nineteen seventies and his [[Wycliffe books]] can be relied upon for a good read. [[Clare Curzon]] produces good stories where it's the strength of the plot which dominates and although not strictly a police procedural you might like to try [[The Graveyard Position]] by Robert Barnard.
