    DCI Sara Hoyland Mysteries Series

    By David Menon

    ()

    About this series

    When a bomb rips through Manchester's Piccadilly railway station during rush hour, DCI Sara Hoyland narrowly escapes with her life but soon comes to realise that all is not as it would first appear.
    The city is plunged into crisis and the usual scapegoats are wheeled out in the media and extremism seems to be taking hold on all sides. Yet just as moderate elements such as local MP Craig Sutherland seem to be calming the situation, terrorists strike again leaving a member of Sara's team fighting for his life.
    Establishment fingers are pointed at the usual suspects but are they really the perpetrators? Is there a more sinister force at work hiding behind the cover of democracy? And why is MP Craig Sutherland receiving anonymous death threats and why has a respected political journalist gone missing leaving only his dead girlfriend in his apartment?
    Uncovering the plot takes DCI Sara Hoyland into uncomfortable territory in this, the gripping third instalment of David Menon's acclaimed detective series

      A nice girl from the ‘right’ sort of church going family shouldn’t get pregnant in 1950s England. But when they do it is seen as good form to leave their child in the care of the catholic church who collude with the government and send him off to an uncertain future in Australia. Sixty years later, a nice middle-class couple in Cheshire with two grown-up children and a thriving business try to ignore that their son, a local doctor, is gay. The mother has a close association with the local Catholic Church where she’s housekeeper to old family friend Father Brendan O’Donnell. Meanwhile an inmate at Strangeways prison in Manchester with a strong Australian accent is opening up his soul to a psychologist prior to his release. As she begins to investigate a series of murders, DCI Sara Hoyland quickly becomes aware that a killer is targeting the family and associates of the nice middle class couple in Cheshire. The prejudices of 1950s society have dramatic and tragic consequences for the intrepid detective as she attempts to get to the bottom of a very modern murder mystery.
