Unholy Alliance (A DI Frank Lyle Mystery)

DI Frank Lyle is about to confront the depths of human depravity and despair. It's autumn 1991 and a horde of Anglican clergy has just descended on Ashbeck for an ecumenical conference at St Luke's church. DI Lyle and his team are called in to investigate when the mutilated body of curate Martin Hayes is found in the churchyard. They are assisted by Canon Thomas Rice, a former police officer, who is able to see both sides. But who was Martin Hayes, and did aspects of his troubled past lead to his brutal demise? As the team get closer to the truth they begin to understand Hayes. But will too much knowledge prove a dangerous thing? This revised edition features a "taster" excerpt from the next DI Lyle novel Murder in the Wings.
