Silent Graves by Sally Rigby
When the bodies of two teenage girls are discovered on a building site, DCI Whitney Walker knows she's on the hunt for a killer. The problem is the murders happened forty years ago and this is her first case with the new team. What makes it even tougher is that with budgetary restrictions in place, she only has two weeks to solve it.
Once again, she enlists the help of forensic psychologist Dr Georgina Cavendish, but as she digs deeper into the past, she uncovers hidden truths that hurtle through the decades and into the present.
Silent Graves is the ninth book in the acclaimed Cavendish & Walker series. Perfect for fans of L J Ross, J M Dalgleish and Rachel Abbott.

Review
Its another cracker of a story from the Cavendish and Walker series! This is a series which I love reading and catching up with.
Whitney and her team have just moved into a new building and the restructuring means she has a new boss and two new members of the team. On the first day they are given a case where some bones have been found whilst clearing some fields in preparation for a new building scheme. It turns out that the bodies have been there for about 40 years and due to cuts and budgets her new boss has only given her two weeks to solve the case. Whitney calls in Georgina to help when it becomes a more complicated case.
I love the characters in this series - they are beginning to feel like friends you are catching up with rather than just pages in a book. I love Whitney and all her faults and Georgina’s quiet calm. I really do enjoy these people. I also secretly want Georgina’s new car! I also loved the revelation at the end of the book and I can’t wait for the next instalment of the series.
