When a body is found draped over Swanage's iconic Globe monument, DCI Lesley Clarke is called in.

A message points to the motive: Go Home.

Is this a hate crime? Or something closer to home?

Lesley must find the killer before he or she strikes again, all while dealing with a mutiny in her team and political pressure from her boss.

At the same time, she's becoming increasingly aware that her predecessor was involved with an organised crime gang, and that people close to her are covering it up.

Will Lesley come out of this case with her reputation, her team, and her career intact?

The Monument Murders is the fourth instalment in the bestselling Dorset Crime series, essential reading for everyone who loves Dorset... and gripping crime novels.
