H. R. F. Keating

A case from Ned French's past has returned to haunt him. Heather Jonas confessed to a murder after a harrowing late-night interview. When she has served 15 years of her sentence someone else confesses. A civil rights campaigner is determined to get to the truth.

A well written varied collection of short stories.

This was no ordinary murder, for the victim was Frank Masters, millionaire and philanthropist. The case was bound to attract much public attention. But Inspector Ghote finds that his demands for evidence are met with nothing but lies and evasions.
