Lost Mr. Linthwaite

J. S. Fletcher

Lost Mr. Linthwaite

Lost Mr. Linthwaite

J. S. Fletcher

Investigative journalist Richard Brixey arrives in the ancient town of Silchester with a simple mission: find his missing uncle, Mr. Linthwaite. But Silchester is not what it seems. Its medieval streets conceal something far darker than a simple disappearance. The ruins of the Priory hold secrets that locals refuse to speak of, and everyone Brixey questions grows mysteriously tight-lipped. Who is the enigmatic Mrs. Byfield, and what long-buried connection does she share with the missing man? Brixey uncovers a sinister plot one that saw Linthwaite silenced and removed before he could expose the truth. Is his uncle dead, buried in Silchester's shadows? Or is he still alive, waiting to be found? A twisting Edwardian mystery where every answer raises another question, and trust is the scarcest commodity in a town where someone will do anything to keep the past buried.
