Six-Geese-a-Laying (Detective Steve Murray Book 6)

December 2016 and the festive season was just beginning. On the first day of Christmas, Steven Murray never received a partridge in a pear tree. Instead, however, a dead teenage girl in a burned out vehicle was duly delivered. Ho! Ho! Ho! DCI Furlong, Sgt. Sandra Kerr, 'Hanna' Hayes and 'Kid' Curry are all back in their most horrific adventure yet. Adam & Eve, tumbling pandas and more obscure, intriguing music lyrics pull you into Detective Inspector Murray's latest Edinburgh tale.The term 'murderer' was often reserved for psychopaths. If the killing was done for means of survival, no one thought less of you. There were those that took life and crumpled under the weight of guilt, even if they had no choice and there were some who killed when necessary and never lost a wink of sleep over it. Then, there were others who have made it a whole new hobby. Look at them the wrong way and they attack with lethal force.Defective walls, grandfather clocks and Gloucestershire, all play a vital part in helping Radical Lizzie and the rest of Murray's dedicated team get to the bottom of a mystery that takes them down the magnificent Clyde coastline and to an ancient and beautiful 'Greenock Hotel.'www.detectivestevemurray.co.uk
