The Twelve Apostles

"Fraser turns out a steady stream of solid British Crime novels." - BOOKLIST When Verity Ryder witnesses the death of a clergyman with whom she has little connection, his final whispered words - 'The Twelve Apostles' - seem highly mysterious. For some reason they seem to refer to her nephew Adam, who Verity knows is involved with something beyond his control. But any knowledge the clergyman might have had is lost for ever. Chief Inspector Webb is the only man who can delve into a past long forgotten by all but its perpetrators to solve an old mystery.
