Priscilla Masters – The River Severn Murders – Kindle Edition

Book overview
A flood is coming to the historic West Midlands city of Shrewsbury. After days of relentless rain, the raging River Severn is an unstoppable force, sweeping through twisty streets and closed doors where its about to dredge up the darkest of secrets . . .
Coroner and single mum Martha Gunn is trudging through Tesco when she gets the call.
The police have found a body. A John Doe floating in a riverside cottage. Whoever this man is, hes been dead a while. Left to rot in the cottages mouldering cellar.
But nature has a way of revealing what people try to bury.
Marthas family dinner will have to wait. Instead, she finds herself standing in a mortuary the corpse laid out for her like a puzzle the police cant solve.
Only Martha can piece together the truth behind the poor mans death. But all her clinical expertise cant prepare her for what comes next.
A funeral wreath left on Marthas own doorstep.
A warning meant for her and her twelve-year-old twins if she doesnt leave this case murky as the filthy floodwaters well alone . .
