Produktbeschreibung

Having recovered from a nervous breakdown following the sudden death of his wife, Detective Inspector Jaxon Wolfe returns to full-time duties with West Yorkshire Police. Retaining the rank of detective inspector for a trial period of one year, he is assigned to the Fraud Squad, not his preferred option. Six months later, as a result of staff shortage and funding issues, he is transferred to Criminal Investigations to resume his previous tenure. Shortly thereafter, the body of a young man is discovered in bizarre circumstances on a moorland near Wolfe's hometown, Carlton, in West Yorkshire.Less than 48 hours later, another body is discovered in a multi-storey car park in Leeds' city centre. Wolfe soon finds a link between the two victims - a photograph and a manuscript - which leads the investigation from West Yorkshire of today to the city of Sarajevo twelve years ago and the disappearance of a university lecturer.When the third corpse is found, Wolfe realises he is in a race against time. He knows who the next victim will be, but to stop further bloodshed, he has to understand the past and the reasons behind the events that happened in Bosnia more than a decade earlier. It seems, however far-fetched the possibility might be, the discovery and removal of gold bullion from the catacombs of a bomb-damaged building in Sarajevo, where it had lain for more than 100 years, is the catalyst behind the events happening on his patch in West Yorkshire.

Autorenporträt

Charles Collins is the pseudonym of a first-time author born and raised in West Yorkshire where this novel is set. Charles currently works in the construction industry for a company predominately involved in house building. He and his wife have three daughters living and working in other parts of the UK. Charles is a keen supporter of the Rugby League, a lifelong fan of the Leeds Rhinos. Having spent forty years working in construction, this middle-aged man decided to write a crime fiction novel for no other reason than personal enjoyment; his eclectic taste in music is reflected in the lead characters' choice of songs liberally sprinkled throughout the novel. The writer hopes you, the reader, gets as much enjoyment from reading this story as he did writing it.
