Dead and Buried (Cooper & Fry)

DS Ben Cooper comes closer to death than he ever has before in the 12th Cooper/Fry case

As moorland fires sweep across the Peak District national park, hundreds of firefighters and park rangers battle to prevent flames reaching a remote inn, once a famous landmark, now abandoned and boarded up. The blaze is just one of a series of random acts of arson which have destroyed miles of heather moorland, and once the flames have died, a grim surprise awaits DS Ben Cooper and DI Diane Fry—a body, dead for years.

Stephen Booth is the CWA Dagger-winning author of the acclaimed Cooper & Fry series of thrillers, including Blind to the Bones, The Dead Place, One Last Breath, and Scared to Live.
