    About this series

    1894. Mr Simeon Crosby, a retired executioner, comes to Wigan with his wife and brother to give a talk on his life’s work. Whilst he has an eager following, there are also many people who strongly object to Crosby’s profession and do not wish his melancholy shadow to be cast over their town.

    Protests have been organised and threats have been made. Detective Sergeant Brennan is tasked with overseeing the security of the controversial visitor and all seems to be going to plan…until a murder is committed on the night of Crosby’s talk. As Brennan and his brawny constable Freddie Jaggery begin their lines of inquiry, they become overwhelmed with suspects and frustrated at the ambiguity of the evidence.

      Poetic Licence

      I know a man who evaporated like a drop of water into the air. He melted into the shadows, his figure became as indistinct as a whisper in the wind. There was a fire involved in his disappearance too, but it wasn’t a brazen prison escape with a dead

      A Rebuke From A Much Gentler Age

      This is a story of road rage gone good. The incident happened long ago and was unremarkable in and of itself. It was even forgettable – but for Captain Crosby’s reaction to it. It was the year after my father retired from the US Navy. In the transiti
