The Girl in the Wall (A Norwood Flats Mystery Book 5)

After leaving the Winnipeg Police force, former Inspector Frank Foote has gone into home renovations. Tearing down a wall on a Norwood Flats job one day, he and his partner come across the skeleton of a small female who has been imprisoned there. They alert the police, who confiscate their tools and remove them from the crime scene. Frank doesn't tell them about the photograph he's found tucked in the wall space with the young woman. He may be retired, but his investigative instincts are still strong. Tracking down the identity of the girl leads Frank into the past and down the trail of the long-forgotten Mrs. Mortimer, who'd had a short-lived business in the 1960s taking photos of the recently deceased for their families. Frank finds himself hoping against hope that she isn't involved. But what are the odds? A grisly discovery behind the wall of an old house in Winnipeg leads former Inspector Frank Foote into the past and down the trail of the unusual Mrs. Mortimer, who'd had a short-lived business in the 1960s taking photos of the recently deceased for their families
