Description
From the outside, the Walkers seem the perfect family.
With a revered family name, they are wealthy, loyal and proud.
Manufacturers of the world-famous Broadshire Poreclain, they are respected within their home village.
That is, until DCI Webb sees a message spelt out in flowers in their sprawling garden.
'Murder'.
The head of the family, Dorothy Walker, is found dead. Now each member is a suspect.
Webb and Sergeant Jackson must work against time to unveil a secret that has festered within the Walker family.
Secrets, jealousy, tension and blackmail lie under the surface.
When the killer returns, the detectives must find out who could hate the Walker family enough to strike - and strike again?
The long-buried truths of six proud Walkers are to be unearthed.
Set against the backdrop of a peaceful village during a summer heatwave, 'Six Proud Walkers' is a gripping crime thriller, featuring Anthea Fraser's popular detective David Webb.
