Theory of Death

About Theory of Death

A team of eminent British scientists are closeted on Belleisle, off the remote Cornish coast, working on the Theory Of Everything - the quest to identify the mysterious factor that links together the fundamental forces governing the universe and effectively explains how it works. But although the isolated location may have the effect of concentrating the mind, the Grand Theory is proving elusive and their research is leading nowhere, causing tensions to rise. Then one of them is murdered. Is the killer a religious fundamentalist, afraid of the implications of the project for faith? Does the crime have its origins in the jealousies and rivalries of academe? Or was the motive something different from either of those? One thing is clear, as DI Alec Monro, head of a special Scotland Yard unit which investigates high-profile crimes, soon discovers. Further lurid incidents suggest someone is prepared to stop at nothing to ensure the truth is never revealed...
