#9: a dead body in an alleyway,a white power organization, & greed run rampant.A multilayered plot for DCI banks to unwind.
#10: a drought has caused the waters of a reservoir to recede. Yorkshire village from times past, is revealed. A female skeleton is uncovered.DCI Banks‘ challenge is to discover who viciously murdered this woman over half a century ago.Dead witnesses witnesses still alive, but hesitant to become involved make for a ⬇️
