New team, old case, the clock is ticking for justice.
Detective Gus Freeman isn't ready to let a cold case gather dust--especially one as flawed as Trudi Driscoll's. Years ago, the lively barmaid was murdered on her walk home, shattering her tight-knit Wiltshire community. The investigation's failures led to the wrongful imprisonment of an innocent man, leaving her true killer free.
Now leading a newly formed team, Gus revisits the tangled web of evidence and missteps that derailed the original inquiry. As troubling secrets resurface, a secondary case involving the murder of Frank North casts a dangerous shadow over the investigation--and over Gus himself.
With reasoned deduction as his compass, Gus navigates a maze of gossip, personal agendas, and institutional failings. He fights to bring closure to Trudi's family while uncovering truths far darker than anyone imagined.
Last Orders, the second instalment in The Freeman Files series, is a gripping cold-case murder mystery that explores the fragile nature of justice, the power of community, and the relentless quest for truth.
