Gently floating - Alan Hunter

Sometimes you can have too much of a good thing - that's if you can call having too many suspects, too many potential murderers, 'a good thing'. To George Gently, the list of people with a reason to hate boat builder and charter fleet owner Harry French, was overwhelming. Not only did those with a grievance against French have a motive, but they all appeared to have the opportunity to kill the man, too. What Gently has to work out is which of them had the cold-blooded nerve to smash the victim's skull and dump him in the river.
