Produktbeschreibung

Detective Inspector Catrin Sayer is in her first year leading the art investigation team within the Art and Antiques Unit of the London Metropolitan Police. Her friendship with a lawyer in Hong Kong has drawn the attention of SIS, the security service, and she is approached to assist them. As she thinks about the implications of the proposal, her team is suddenly assigned to assist Trident, the organized crime unit of the Metropolitan Police, at a crime scene investigation in East London where a valuable painting has been found.

It is a suspicious death; a young woman has fallen from the balcony of an apartment owned by a gang leader. The painting is by a Scottish artist, Leslie Hunter and has links back to a Glasgow drug gang led by a man called Dominic Connolly. Some years ago, Sayer was part of an investigation that led to Connolly and others ending up in prison. Now she is sent to Scotland to conduct interviews of the gang leader and his accountant, with instructions to 'stir them up a bit'.

She does; and it has surprising consequences.

Autorenporträt

I live in Ontario, Canada but was born and grew up in Merseyside, England. By profession a chemist, I worked for many years as a consultant on international chemical regulation, a role with a lot of international travel.
So far, I have written and published The Catrin Sayer Mysteries (10 books) covering the cases and career of a Welsh police officer working for the Metropolitan Police in London. It takes her from a rookie detective through to the rank of superintendent, and a range of criminal investigations including art crimes, scams and fraud, organized crime, undercover work and supervision of a major homicide investigation.
My current work is a trilogy set in Cumbria, UK with a quite different protagonist; a community police sergeant, Harriet Calder; a widow and a part-time Methodist preacher. Canons, the first novel, was published in 2019. The second, Compline, has just been released (Sept. 2023).
