Made a scapegoat for someone else’s failings, who wouldn’t jump at the chance to put the record straight?
When DS Dave Slater is unjustly suspended from duty after a botched operation, he soon gets bored sitting at home waiting to hear his fate. Then his boss unexpectedly asks him to investigate a case “discreetly” and before long Slater realises he has a chance to redeem himself.
Joined by fellow scapegoat DS Norman Norman, Slater is plunged into a tangled web of corruption, blackmail, deception, and probably one of the most cunning murders ever. But can he and Norman wade through the ever-widening pool of suspects to find the killer?
Death of A Temptress is the first book in P.F Ford’s Slater and Norman Mystery series. If you like British Detectives, you’ll love this classic blend of character, suspense and humour.
