Own

When Kirsten Harbourn fails to turn up for her wedding, a shocking discovery is made; Kirsten is found, murdered on her bed, killed while she was getting ready for her marriage.
And it soon turns out, there's no shortage of suspects.
Kirsten was being stalked and kept quite a few secrets from her husband to be, Peter. She was also on to some dodgy goings on in the foreign language school she was working for.
And then Wesley and his colleagues are confronted with a second murder; this time of a recently married man, with no trace of his new wife.
As the investigations continue, join and separate again, and old corpse is found on farm land, and here it's Wesley's archaeologist friend Neil to investigate.
He soon discovers a link between the murdered girl and a recently discovered Elizabethan play that is soon to be performed with one of Wesley's colleagues, Rachel, in the cast. And it is watching the play that finally gives Wesley the clues he needs to solve the crime.
I really enjoy this series, although I can't stand Wesley's wife Pam, and am looking forward to the next one.
