During the second week of the July Edinburgh Trades Holiday there was a call to the Edinburgh CID informing them that the body of a young woman had been discovered on a local golf course. It turned out that it had been there for ten days and was just as you might expect. There's a major problem though: the way that the body is laid out is familiar: in fact it's exactly the same as the bodies of the three young women in a recent case. Only that case was settled: the murdered had killed himself and the discovery of his body led to the death of a much-loved colleague of the CID officers.
