Read An Unsafe Pair of Hands Storyline:

An Unsafe Pair of Hands is a quirky murder mystery set in rural England charting the descent and rise of a detective on the verge of a nervous breakdown.Peter Shand is the 'safe pair of hands' - a high-flying police administrator seconded to a quiet rural CID team to gain the operational experience he needs for promotion. On his second day he's thrust into a high-profile murder case. A woman's body is discovered in an old stone circle - with another woman buried beneath her.The pressure on Shand is enormous. The case is baffling. A local journalist is out to discredit him and then, goaded at a press conference about lack of progress, he invents a lead. And keeps on lying – to the press, his boss, his team - telling himself that he'll solve the case before anyone finds out.And then another murder occurs. And had there been a third?Which will break first? The case, or Shand?
