About Dead Guy A Comedy Thriller
One should not speak ill of the dead. But what if the dead speak ill of the living?" I was murdered." A voice from the coffin at a funeral. Inspector Robert Peel, of the Quaystone Constabulary, investigates. He deduces that a person, known only as 'the Scarecrow', is playing practical jokes. But the Scarecrow is murdered. In the course of his investigation, Peel becomes enamoured of Sarah Wilde, a glamorous lawyer from London. But a Special Forces unit led by the dashing Captain Sutherland, arrives in Quaystone to track down Fox, a poacher, who is deemed a threat to national security by MI5. Peel and Sutherland become rivals for Sarah's affections. Sarah's life is threatened, and there are more murders, including a real body on a 'Guy Fawkes' bonfire, before Peel unmasks the killer with Sarah's help.
