Product Description Will appeal to fans of John Harveys crime novelsLibrary Journal Arthur Meadows has just returned home from a trip to southwest Europe, supposedly bringing back a consignment of cloth, but actually bringing back something far more deadly. Meanwhile, a young Asian couple are murdered in their small house in Gloucester, the killings done with ruthless efficiency. Beverley Wharton, now Chief Inspector, does not relish the investigation of the murders: partly due to the choice of pathologist, Charles Sydenham. She would have preferred John Eisenmenger, but he has his own problems trying to work out why Arthur Meadows died so unexpectedly . . . From Booklist Chief Inspector Beverley Wharton has always been ambitious. Her subordinates fear and dislike her, and her superiors disdain and disrespect her. Her only saving grace is her amazing solve rate. Her latest case is a real humdinger that could make or break her career. A series of brutal murders has occurred, and while the methodstabbing, then throat slittingis the same, its difficult to find a link between the victims. Pathologist John Eisenmenger has been out of commission after a mental breakdown, but now hes back, and Wharton is eager for his input, which has helped her solve cases in the past. But this case is full of challenging conundrums: possible human trafficking or drug smuggling; a vengeful, tragic mother; a man damaged by a military blunder; militant terrorists; and a potential dirty bomb aimed at a highlevel target. With his usual consummate skill, McCarthy weaves these disparate elements into a suspenseful, gripping pageturner of a mystery thats sure to keep readers glued to their seats and offers up yet another mustread entry in his John Eisenmenger series. Emily Melton About the Author Keith McCarthy lives in Ledbury, England.
