Forgotten Graves
(2025)(The fourth book in the Whitby's Forgotten Victims series)
A novel by Wes Markin
Continue to uncover the dark truths of Whitby's Forgotten Victims in this gripping new thriller by bestselling British crime author Wes Markin.
Not every grave is blessed with flowers.
In the eerie silence of a forgotten silo, beneath the weight of bitter December snow, DCI Frank Black uncovers more than just bones. Over thirty years ago, Sarah Matthews vanished, dismissed as a troubled soul fleeing her demons. But as Frank digs deeper, he uncovers her true identity: a poet whose words still burn with life, her voice silenced too soon.
With the help of DS Gerry Carver—a detective with an uncanny gift for spotting patterns—Frank unravels a chilling truth: Sarah’s disappearance wasn’t a runaway act, but a calculated murder, buried by those with the power to keep secrets hidden.
To expose her killer, Frank and Gerry must infiltrate the highest circles of Whitby, where privilege and influence keep the dead buried and the guilty free. As Christmas lights flicker over the town, the two detectives must confront those who have walked among them for decades, guarding their dark secrets—and Sarah’s story—at all costs.
Some graves don’t need flowers.
They need justice.
Bestselling Wes Markin is back with the start of an exciting new series, perfect for fans of David Gatward, JD Kirk, Rachel McLean, JM Dalgliesh and Simon McCleave.
'Take shelter! There’s a storm brewing over Whitby. Compelling, atmospheric, characters to root for – this book has everything!' ★★'''★★ TG Reid, Dark is the Grave
