Nickson, Chris2026
Books
Leeds, 1944. Cathy Marsden's happiness at her boyfriend Tom's brief leave from the army and marriage proposal is short-lived as she embarks on a new case in the Special Investigation Branch. Eric Carr, a local gangster, is dead after crashing his car on the outskirts of Leeds. Not only that, but an alarming discovery is made in the boot: weapons, including guns, stolen from a US military base, to be sold on the black market. Was the crash simply an accident, or something more sinister? One thing's for sure, Eric's death has set a chain of murder and gangland chaos in motion. As the number of people disappearing increases, and men start dying, Cathy must work out who is pulling the strings, and why.
