FALL DOWN DEAD by Stephen Booth

A brand new crime thriller in the award-winning Cooper and Fry series. When a party of walkers have to be rescued from the treacherous, mist-shrouded moorlands of the Peak District’s highest mountain, one of their members is discovered to be missing. A search finds her body lying at the foot of a rock known as Dead Woman’s Drop. But how did she get separated from her party, and was she alone when she died? Detective Inspector Ben Cooper and his team explore the complex and troubled relationships between members of the walking group. But Cooper’s inquiries are interrupted when allegations are made against his former colleague Detective Sergeant Diane Fry. Incidents from her past are about to be raked up, and it seems that Fry could be about to lose or job. But is she guilty of the allegations, or is someone trying to frame her? In both cases, the question for Ben Cooper is the same – did she fall, or was she pushed?
