Hung, Drawn and Cured is now available on Amazon for the kindle.
The place: Great Yarmouth. The time: 1899. The event: Murder most foul.
Douglas Knight saved Edgar from the gallows. Because this act cost Douglas his career as a London police detective, Edgar is now his faithful associate. However, finding the real murderer was only a small part of the conspiracy he uncovered. When the new Special Branch begin to investigate the pair, they have no alternative but to discover the organisation that has ruined their lives. They have one clue - a fish curer in Great Yarmouth named Thomas Atherton.
The pair leave London and start a new life in Great Yarmouth. Among the investment properties they purchase is one half of Atherton’s smokehouse, which he leases. Before they can find the proof they need to destroy the organisation, somebody murders Atherton inside the locked smokehouse and steals the evidence.
Time is now against Douglas and Edgar. They have to solve the murder before the police arrest them, or call in his estranged friends from Scotland Yard for help. Also, Special Branch now know they, and the link, are in Great Yarmouth and could suspect the pair. Another problem is the discovery that the detective in charge of the murder investigation is Douglas’s boyhood friend who married his intended fianc
é when Douglas moved to London. Their mutual distrust can only hinder the investigation. Douglas must try to renew their friendship if they are to solve the crime.This is the first book in The Great Yarmouth Murders series. Each book will give Douglas Knight and his friends a new murder to solve.http://www.amazon.co.uk/Douglas-Knight-Yarmouth-Murders-ebook/dp/B00CX6U7UC/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1369229214&sr=1-1&keywords=hung%2C+drawn+and+cured
