City Crime

von Ian Richardson

When a body is found floating down the canal, Detective Chief Inspector David Gould of the City of London police is called in to investigate, and his inquiries lead him to a secretive travel agency. Gould enlists the newly promoted Detective Sergeant Philippa Cottrell to go undercover but, soon afterwards, Neil Harvey - the high-flying owner with a mysterious past - is found shot dead in his office. Gould and Cottrell work tirelessly to solve the case, drawing them into further murders, blackmail, drug dealing, a bitter family feud and a past that comes back to haunt... With many suspects who have motive - the neglected wife, the belittled business partner, the scorned mistress, the humiliated daughter - this compelling, twisty page turner will keep you guessing right up to the end.
