A Cold Case That Never Cooled

Ten years ago, promising young reporter Bethany Waites vanished when her car plunged off Shakespeare Cliff. Though investigators found blood spatter and torn clothing in the wreckage, her body was never recovered from the churning waters below. Before her disappearance, Bethany had been meticulously investigating a sophisticated VAT fraud scheme worth millions. Her reporting helped convict businesswoman Heather Garbutt, who received a fifteen-year sentence, while her suspected accomplice Jack Mason somehow evaded prosecution. For Joyce Meadowcroft, the newest member of the Thursday Murder Club, this cold case presents an irresistible opportunity to meet her television crush, veteran news presenter Mike Waghorn, who had mentored Bethany. Joyce orchestrates what appears to be a casual dinner meeting, ostensibly to interview Ron for a human interest story. Her plan bears unexpected fruit when Mike, after several glasses of wine, brings up Bethany unprompted. "Some new info came to light," Mike reveals, his hands trembling slightly as he shares a text message Bethany sent just weeks before her death. "Can't say what, but it's absolute dynamite. Getting closer to the heart of this thing." This tantalizing clue sets the Thursday Murder Club on a collision course with enemies who have spent a decade believing their secrets were safely buried.
