Dead Money (A Detective Inspector Paul Amos Lincolnshire Mystery)
“Swift had informed Amos of the suspicious behaviour of Jim Berry and the allusion of the landlord to his knowing about the murder. “It isn’t much to go on,” Swift confessed at the regular morning meeting of the murder team, “but I really did feel there was something going on there. And Berry did figure in all the Jones files we looked at.” Amos was equally frank: “We haven't got very far in any other direction so we might as well give it a try.”Amos was now hammering on the closed, solid front ...door of the pub. A vacuum cleaner was buzzing away in the background. Amos knocked again, louder. “We’re not open until 11,” came the reply. The face of the landlord’s wife appeared at the lounge window. Amos swiftly flashed his warrant card in front of her face. She grimaced. A few moments later heavy bolts could be heard being withdrawn behind the barricades and the door was opened to reveal the figure of the landlord. “Thanks,” said Amos perfunctorily as he pushed his way past the startled figure and into the pub.MoreLess
