Fifth Member

the long version

Claire Rayner's new book is the fifth featuring George Barnabas, the female Head of Pathology at the Old East Hospital. Her fiance, Superintendant Gus Hathaway, has got a very hot case on his hands: the brutal murder of Conservative MP Sam Diamond which is shortly followed by the killing of a Labour MP. George cannot resist involving herself in the investigations especially when she realises that the murders are taking the same pattern as those of Jack the Ripper - who was known to strike five times.
