A condemned Blackpool hotel. A surveyor dead during a final inspection. An accident that becomes less convincing the closer Frank Mercer looks.
Martin Hargreaves knew dangerous buildings. The Norchester Hotel had been closed for years, condemned for months and mapped for demolition. He also knew which areas were off limits.
When Martin dies inside the hotel, the official explanation is straightforward: a workplace misadventure in an unstable building.
But the route does not fit. The plans do not agree. Records have been altered, a room appears where no room should exist, and an older death at the same hotel begins to matter again.
Frank Mercer starts with the practical questions. Where could Martin actually have walked? What had changed inside the building? And who needed a dangerous place to provide a tidy explanation?
THE LAST INSPECTION is Book Three in The Frank Mercer Files - a grounded British crime series set across Lancashire, where evidence matters more than the story everyone agreed to accept.
