DCI Lesley Clarke’s two teams are in flux. The Major Crime Investigations Team has a new DI, and the Cold Cases team has a member back from parental leave. And Lesley herself is itching to get stuck into a case, instead of sitting behind a desk.

When a body is found at the luxury beach huts on Mudeford Spit, the Cold Cases team know it’s one of theirs, as the remains have been buried for over thirty years. But then evidence is found connecting a member of the Kelvin organised crime family, as well as Lesley’s lawyer wife Elsa.

Are Elsa’s ties to her former clients about to be revived? And will the new DI, with her experience of financial forensics, be able to solve the murder of local taxi driver Mark Ashforth and identify just which criminal gang are responsible? Most importantly, will Lesley find an opportunity to get her hands (and those walking boots) dirty?

The Beach Hut Murders introduces a much-loved character from Rachel McLean’s ‘Deadly’ and Cumbria Crime series to the Dorset team, and continues the investigation into the notorious Kelvins and their police associates, both past and present.
