Last respects

by Catherine Aird

A body is found floating in a tidal river - a memento from an historic wreck is found in the clothing. A recent widower and his jilted niece have had a break-in at their boathouse. Sloan and Crosby have to identify the body and work out how and why the victim ended up murdered - did he know too much?
