Murder... Now and Then

Synopsis

Victor Holyoak made his millions by selling state-of-the-art security systems. In the end, even the most sophisticated devices were no protection against the intruder who murdered him in his own factory.

The millionnaire's death shocked the townsfolk of Stansfield. But was there something they didn't know about their deceased benefactor?

Chief Inspector Lloyd was convinced he had seen Victor somewhere before. Was his memory playing tricks again? Or did the murky past hold the clues to a murder that seemed to come under the heading of unfinished business?
