When the body of local jeweller Nigel Fontenoy is discovered at the back entrance of a grimy pub Detective Chief Inspector Gil Mayo believes it is an easy case
His body was taken there in a truck belonging to his cousin's building site.
Surely he must be murderer?
After all, Fontenoy's cousin, Jake Wilding, was heavily in debt to the dead man and cannot account satisfactorily for his whereabouts on the night of the murder.
But it turns out the case is not what it seems.
Wilding finally names his alibi — his ex-wife who abandoned him and their baby son — and claims that Fontenoy was pressurizing him to act as a go-between with her for possession of some unnamed object... or information.
In her attempts to unravel the increasingly tangled web of family relationships, Abigail Moon comes to realize that in this mystery, as soon as one thing is gained, another is lost — including a priceless art treasure.
An Accidental Shroud is an expertly plotted detective mystery that is perfect for fans of Peter James and Ian Rankin.

An Accidental Shroud Inspector Gil Mayo Mystery Series Book 7 eBook Marjorie Eccles
"An Accidental Shroud" is another mostly satisfying installment in Eccles's Inspector Mayo series. Eccles's plot is about murder involving a complex family situation in which parentage surprises abound. Eccles keeps the reader interested with the interrelated suspects, each with his or her own personal dilemmas, and with a variety of leads in the case. There is so much activity in terms of leads and characters that the story feels a bit scattered, but mostly it is engrossing.Regarding the detective protagonists, in this book Eccles puts Chief Inspector Gil Mayo on the back burner a bit so as to feature Inspector Abigail Moon, the recently promoted female in the detective squad. Moon seems like the token female addition to the series. A 20-year veteran sergeant is assigned to Moon, and this Sergeant Carmody, reliable and unflappable with a grounded wisdom, seems more the detective than Moon. Sgt. Kite is missing completely from this book, which is a mistake on the author's part. In any event, Eccles just doesn't develop her detective staff as complex characters in the way that some major mystery writers do (Ruth Rendell, Elizabeth George, Reginald Hill), and the reader just has to live with it.
