Book Description HTML
After losing his wife to cancer, Nicks tries to steadily drink himself to death and discovers it takes longer than he thought but then a mysterious encounter one evening sets his life on a completely unexpected path. Taking over his new desk at the Major Investigation Team, DCI Thurstan Baddeley was expecting the odd murder or two but not the arrival of an assassin and certainly not one who would stay so long. Organised crime he’d be happy with but the hidden clues found along the way convince him it’s a much bigger problem.
Reader Reviews

Dan Wheatcroft
A former member of a north of England, gritty, metropolitan police force, the author has thirty years experience of day to day policing. Breathless pursuits on foot, car chases, riots, firearms incidents, bomb searches, murder investigations, excessive tea drinking and hours of boredom were complimented by his knowledge of hiding in bushes and dodging wayward tanks, acquired in another life as a Military Policeman. A recent diagnosis of ‘high functioning Aspergers’ has helped explain an almost obsessive interest in the Kennedy assassinations and lack of it in sport, big trucks, car parts in general and social events. He lives on a small hill, in Romania, with his wife, three cuddly toys and Lily the dog. Dan Wheatcroft is a pseudonym.
