The Burden of Doubt

When consultant anesthetist Moira Farrell is found stabbed to death, shock reverberates amongst her medical colleagues. At the same time, rumors start to leak out regarding the professional incompetence of Moira's clinical director. Was Moira about to blow the whistle on him? Was that sufficient reason for him to silence her forever? But then contradictory evidence from forensics emerges, firmly pointing to a petty criminal who had worked as a gardener for Moira. DCI Ed Swift must unravel the tangled threads of the murder against a background of growing concern for his own daughter who has unaccountably run into trouble with the police. Then, unexpectedly, the DCI's investigation bears fruit, flushing out a killer with all the motivation for the murder. Will justice now be done?
