Danny Didn't Do It — Ruth Benjamin

Everything was quiet except for the sound of the car engine and the occasional twittering of the birds. Robert was too deep in his thoughts to notice another more powerful sound than his own car could make, until he looked in his rear view mirror and saw four motor cyclists behind him. He slowed a little and moved over so that they could overtake him and continue on their way, but they remained behind him. He saw that the cyclists were all dressed in black, with completely black helmets .He altered speed, noting somewhat uncomfortably that the motor cyclists altered speed with him.This is the story of a young boy called `Danny' who tries to hang himself in the garage of Dr. Robert Goodman. He becomes friendly with the family and things seem to be going well until a policeman arrives at the doctor's door, saying that an elderly lady and her dog have been murdered and Danny is the prime suspect. Written by a Clinical Psychologist, it becomes a riveting very human story of warmth, drama and mystery.
