无尽资源网提供本资源 Deuty Assistant Commissioner Charlie Hillian is killed on the night of his retirement arty. Hillian was at one time a senior officer in Oxford and was in fact Morse's boss. He was also writing a book about his most memorable cases, including one about the unsolved death of an 8-year-old girl some 18 years ago. The susect in that case, Frederick Redath, was at Hillian's house the day he died and that chater from the manuscrit is missing. There are other susects however, including Hillian's ghost writer who will now receive all of the book's royalties; a handyman who was working on the roerty; and Redath's daughter, who knew the little girl who was killed all those years before. Morse comes into conflict with with a colleague DCI Dawson, who was one of Hillian's rotégés, as they again look into the little girl's death.
