Mourn Not Your Dead

Alastair Gilbert, a commander in the London Metropolitan Police, is found bludgeoned to death in the kitchen of his suburban Surrey home by his wife and seventeen-year-old daughter. There is no sign of forced entry. Either he was taken by surprise, or the killer was someone he had trusted. Investigators Duncan Kincaid and Gemma James must put their feelings for each other and their memories of Gilbert as their superior aside, as they discover that Gilbert did not always play by the rules.
