    About this ebook

    The discovery of a damaged vase takes Hennessey and Yellich back to a twenty-year-old murder case, with consequences for the present.

    A chance sighting of a vase for sale in an antique shop leads Detective Chief Inspector Hennessey and his team to take a fresh look at a twenty-year-old unsolved murder case. As the investigation opens out and links are made to other unsolved murders in the Vale of York and beyond, the net seems to be closing around a mysterious gang of killers and a vow of silence that’s been kept for two decades.

    But when a new body is discovered in a local wood, is that pact about to be tested?

      I bought this tankard in an antiques market off the A3 about 10 years ago. It was being sold by an elderly couple who had bought it at a house clearance sale and didn’t know anything about it. I could see it was a German stein and the lid is made of
