Francesca Wilson Knihy

Janet Neel's Death's Bright Angel takes the traditional English detective story and places it in a realistic, often cut-throat, setting of modern business and government intervention. In doing so, she creates an endearing pair of investigators - high-flying Department of Trade civil servant Francesca Wilson and CID Inspector John McLeish - whose relationship and romance flourishes over the course of seven novels.

On a summer holiday in the heathery Scottish Highlands, lovers Chief Inspector John McLeish and Francesca Wilson rescue the victim of a near-fatal fall. But when the victim is killed in another fall in London, John and Francesca know foul play was involved.
