When Private Investigator Paul West took on his next case, it seemed
easy and one that would pay handsomely. All West had to do was compile a
profile of Jason Knox for his only son, Matthew, who had no memory of
him. His father had walked away from Matthew's mother when he was an
infant and left him the sole beneficiary of his multi-million-dollar
estate.
It didn't take long before he was thrust into one of the most complex
cases in a long and illustrious career. It took him to Ebony River, a
small town, on Vancouver Island's east coast that seldom gave a wink or
nod to the outside world.
What he found was the two-year-old unsolved murder of Jason Knox and his
wife that was still baffling RCMP Sergeant Andy Holt. When West told him
why he had come to Ebony River, Holt asked him if he would go undercover
and help him solve the case.
West's investigation concentrated on an eclectic range of residents
including: bikers with an agenda, a former member of the town council
with a grudge to settle, a small church time had left behind, a farmer's
Sunday dinner that revealed hidden secrets and a mayor desperately
trying to get re-elected.
Murder Unchained is a page-turner. It will keep the reader guessing up
to the last page.
