A Lennox Kemp mystery Series

Postscript to Murder

by M. R. D. Meek

Published 25 January 1996

Lawyer Lennox Kemp's newly-wed happiness is slowly being eroded by a series of anonymous threats. Is it an aggrieved past client? A criminal he has helped put away?

His friend Detective Inspector John Upshire points out that there is a multiplicity of enemies from which to choose. But then a colleague of Kemp's is murdered and Lennox is convinced that he was the intended victim. Weighed down by guilt, he feels disinclined to investigate the matter further, so it is left to his feisty wife Mary to follow the confusing clues.

Is the murder connected to the anonymous threats and sabotage attempts against Kemp? or does it relate to the victim's own affairs? A mysterious commission in London, an arrogant property dealer, an unbalanced young woman, are only some of the elements of the mystery which Mary must disentangle. But is she on the right path? And will Lennox regain his interest in the affair before another murder is committed?

The return of Lennox Kemp, M. R. D. Meek's popular lawyer sleuth, is an intricate and suspenseful puzzler that will delight his many fans.

Throughout the centuries, highwaymen have terrorised travellers, gangsters have dumped their victims' bodies in shallow graves, unwanted bables have been buried there and children have disappeared. Now, another child has disappeared. Twelve-year-old schoolgirl, Freda de Lisie, has been missing for twenty-four hours...Lennox Kemp's wife, Mary, is expecting their first child and Kemp is initially reluctant to become too involved in the case. But the tragedy of a missing child affects everyone and the townsfolk become slowly poisoned by suspiclon and anger, where everyday events take on a strange and sinister relevance. When a body is found, the case narrows down to a murder hunt, but the whole community must continue to endure media attention and police intrusion - particularly young Lillian Egerton, who has recently been diagnosed as a sufferer of multiple personality syndrome.
