Road of Bones

The eccentric and erratic detective Petroc Corrigan has recently had to resign from C.I.D. after a drunken high speed accident in a borrowed patrol car ending in a field and a dead cow. Needing to repair his finances he hires himself out to investigate the whereabouts of a missing two million Swiss Franc investment which he reckons no longer exists. He's right. But his journeys to Paris, Nice, Geneva and Tangier lead him onto a different path where a millionaire murderer for the sake of his business will show him and others no mercy.

This is the second Petroc Corrigan novel by Ian Kennedy Martin, creator of the Sweeney and other T.V. series.
