A missing record should be a simple correction.In Bramleigh, it becomes something else entirely.When a development approval is discovered to have never been formally registered, investigator Thomas Hale is called in—not to solve a crime, but to reconstruct a failure.What he uncovers is not a single mistake, but a chain of them:a verbal handover,a misread system,a missed letter,and a decision to stay silent.As the timeline is rebuilt piece by piece, the consequences begin to surface—for the council, for the applicant, and for the one person whose objection was never heard.This is not a story of guilt.It’s a story of process.And what happens when it breaks.©2026 Richard Ashcombe (P)2026 Richard Ashcombe
