Despite the Evidence (C.I.D. Room Book 5)

After a night at a pub, Detective Constable Kerr was driving back to Fortrow when he discovered a crashed Jensen. Slumped over the wheel, the driver was either dead or dying. At that moment, Kerr was knocked unconscious. Next morning, he was told that the driver of the Jensen was alive and relatively unhurt.

Despite all the evidence, Kerr refused to believe he could have been mistaken. It was this stubbornness which brought about a further investigation—an investigation which seemed to prove that Kerr’s story was quite impossible, but which uncovered a trail of robbery and murder...

Filled with an inventive plot, sharp characterisation, and accurate descriptions of police-work, as the fifth book in the C.I.D series Despite the Evidence shows why Jeffries has earned his high place among novelists who write about crime as it really could happen.

Praise for Roderic Jeffries
