Murder on the Herald Express — David Scott

Editor Dick Chinnery travels to Cornwall to manage a group of newspapers where he is soon made aware of simmering tensions among staff on the Broad Bottom Herald Express as he tries to unravel numerous scams. When a senior policeman who is helping to organise House of Commons lunches for foreign diplomats sues the paper, Dick finds himself dealing with Mi5. Then a murderer strikes. Dick and his fellow editor and wife Mary fear they may be the next victims in a newspaper office where nothing is as it seems. Set against the backdrop of the buzz of the newspaper world, Murder on the Herald Express is a cleverly plotted and cracking good story.
