Missing lecturer mystery

Police are investigating the mystery of the missing lecturer in a quiet corner of leafy Buckinghamshire. Detectives have spent the day digging up the garden of a house in the small village of Drayton Parslow near Milton Keynes after being told by locals that the owner hadn't been seen for six months. Samuel Alexander is a retired university English lecturer. His disappearance has sparked a major inquiry with one man already arrested and bailed on suspicion of murder.
