Wessex Thrillers #3

Root & Branch: A Shire of Wessex Short Story

Rate this book
When the Home Office disband four of the South Coast Police entities and create five new police forces, the Wessex Constabulary is established. With Rosalie Barrie as Chief Constable, the new shire based police service has to jump into action immediately, there is no time for a learning curve in solving crime.
In a bizarre turn of events their first murder is that of a Pansexual Vlogger whose occupation is building and repairing dry stone walls, until his dead body is found wedged in a tree. And not any old tree, the Jerusalem tree, the tree that sits on the site of the original Jerusalem Tree planted by Joseph of Arimathea on a trading visit to the UK in 12 AD, with his nephew, whose fame would spread across the globe.
DS Root, DC Branch and their new boss DCI Briar need a result, and quickly, before critics of the new constabulary begin to complain, and before anyone else dies.
