2000ws: The call of the church could result in a lack of faith for DI Farrell…
Dead Man’s Prayer (DI Frank Farrell 1)
What you need to know before your trail
Eighteen years ago, DI Frank Farrell turned his back on the church. But when an ex-priest is murdered in his hometown, he has no choice but to delve into his past.
Ex-priest DI Frank Farrell has returned to his roots in Dumfries, only to be landed with a disturbing murder case. Even worse, Farrell knows the victim: Father Boyd, the man who forced him out of the priesthood eighteen years earlier.
With no leads, Farrell must delve into the old priest’s past, one that is inexorably linked with his own. But his attention is diverted when a pair of twin boys go missing. The Dumfries police force recover one in an abandoned church, unharmed. But where is his brother?
As Farrell investigates the two cases, he can’t help but feel targeted. Is someone playing a sinister game, or is he seeing patterns that don’t exist? Either way, it’s a game Farrell needs to win before he loses his grip on his sanity, or someone else turns up dead.

Religion returns when DI Frank Farrell turns his back on the church but then is forced to face his past again when an ex-priest is murdered in his hometown.
Dumfries and the community there are tight knit and closed off as the locals appear to be hiding something. But the behind the scenes insight into the church makes for some dark and secretive revelations. Add strained family relations and a murder not just in the church but in the confessional then the stage is set for some serious revelations
Dumfries is a small town where nothing much usually happens it is said but this might not be on the Tourist Centre’s shelves anytime soon!
