The Bournemouth Lady Killer

The investigators

Co-ordinating the investigation is Jerome Lynch QC, a barrister, whose job it is to guide and judge the team’s solutions. He puts his clear-thinking legal brains to work, relentlessly forcing our investigators to arrive at the right answers. This week our sleuths are:

Martina Cole, millionaire crime writer from Essex who started life stacking supermarket shelves while her bank robber husband did time. Her insight may come in useful for the investigation.

Brian Sewell, controversial art critic with a passion for veteran cars. He has a reputation for his upper crust, no-nonsense attitude.

Will the unusual couple complement each other in the investigation or will it simply serve to emphasise their differences?

Sewell is exasperated by Cole's ‘flipperty gibbet of a brain’ and admits that he is ‘not a fan of women. They are necessary, but not desirable.’

Martina has her reservations too. Sewell, she says, is ‘very used to being the only person who speaks and when he does, he's used to people listening to him', but adds 'he is a nice man’.
