Laying Out the Bones

In the gripping second installment of the DI Lockyer Series, a sudden downpour in Wiltshire reveals a long-buried human skeleton belonging to Lee Geary, a man missing for nearly a decade. As DI Matt Lockyer investigates the circumstances surrounding Geary's death, he uncovers connections to a cold case involving the murder of a young woman named Holly Gilbert. With the assistance of DC Gemma Broad, Lockyer delves into a web of intrigue, questioning whether Geary's disappearance and the deaths of other individuals linked to Gilbert's case are mere coincidences or signs of a more sinister pattern that has remained hidden for years.
