Embers Of The Dead

Solicitor Eric Ward's reluctant attendance at an annual dinner leads him to meet Ben Shaw, a merchant banker who seems to know an awful lot about him. Shaw tells Eric that Jason Sullivan QC - the reason for Eric's marriage breakup - is involved in something big and it is up to Eric to find out what. Meanwhile, DCI Charlie Spate's investigation into illegal immigration has revealed a new level of organisation, but he is pulled off the case to re-open a cold case: the killing of Michael Podro, whose murder bore a striking resemblance to Nazi death camp killings.
