A Crime Too Perfect
About the Book
Inspector Clive Channing, a young forensic crime investigator, becomes obsessed with the brutal murder of Loretta Taylor, a famous actress. A case that had gone cold for ten years, and described in the Press as the perfect crime – a judgment that Clive Channing totally rejects. His liason with attractive Jenny and Aunt Maggy opens a door.
He studies the file every night at bedtime (as a private personal project) searching for the needle in the haystack of lies that might reopen the case. His first challenge is to break the murderer’s alibi: “I’ve never set foot in that house or in her bedroom!”
“We shall see,” Clive whispers to himself. as he slowly unravels the modus operandi of the murderer...
