Picking up more or less where All The Rage left off, it throws something of a softball in the form of the central plot – a crime that we know is staged before we even start – and manages to distract our attention from the meat of the story. The Whole Truth, DI Fawley’s fifth outing, is the longest we’ve had to wait since Cara Hunter first grabbed our attention back in 2018. With a wife on the verge of labour and the worry – at the back of his mind, but ever-present nonetheless – that the Roadside Rapist has been granted his freedom, Fawley doesn’t exactly have his eye on the ball, and that’s going to land him in all kinds of trouble. Strapping rugby player Caleb Morgan claims that the diminutive Marina Fisher tried to take advantage of him the night before.
