DCI Merlin Parry has to use all his skill and experience to crack a murder case where the victim was killed in front of thousands of shoppers, but not a single witness is to be found.
A neurotic, barren wife acquires a baby illegally. Seventeen years on, with her husband now a prosperous Welsh businessman, someone discovers her secret and blackmail begins. A murder follows in Cardiff's vibrant Central Market in front of thousands of shoppers – but, bizarrely, there are no witnesses.
Chief Inspector Merlin Parry, aided as ever by Sergeant Gomer Lloyd, tackles a baffling human drama that intrigues right up to the nail-biting denouement, the whole leavened with masterly characterisation and polished wit. With ' Dead in the Market ' David Williams, creator of Mark Treasure, has unassailably established yet another enduring sleuth on the popular whodunit scene.
‘The author is deliciously adept at portraying the proper facades of the respectable classes and the shabby reality behind’
JAMES MELVILLE, ' Ham and High '
‘A good story, well handled and as always with Williams, elegantly written… and engrossing’
F.E. PARDOE, 'Birmingham Post'
