DEAD RECKONING

The woman’s body is found between two wheelie bins in Vicar’s Gate. She’s still warm, but there’s no saving her.

MEET DI MORGAN YEOMAN
Detective Inspector Morgan Yeoman is a force to be reckoned with. Driven, sharp and unflinchingly pragmatic, he has no qualms about skirting the line between right and wrong if it means catching a killer. His commanding presence can silence a room or rattle a suspect, and his sharp instincts often put him a step ahead of his peers. He’s fiercely protective of his team, but his stubborn nature often causes tension between them. Deep down there’s a softer side to Yeoman that many don’t get to see, except his beloved German Shepherd Rochester, who he adores.
