Quayside Murder

AN OFFER TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE

Former police officer-turned-solicitor Eric Ward is recovering from a serious eye operation when the offer comes in.

Come down to London.

Help Philip Scarn, a successful entrepreneur, break into the North East.

Get paid handsomely doing it.

On the journey, Ward is nearly killed. At the other end of a phone call, a shadowy voice warns this is just the beginning. Then a young woman is murdered. Ward finds himself caught up in a turf war between gangs as he races to prevent another killing. Is an old enemy from his policing days on his tail? Or is this something to do with Scarn?

Can Eric Ward discover his enemies when what’s preventing him from seeing them has nothing to do with his eyes?
