About this series

A burglary gone wrong turns complicated in this mystery marked by “solid plotting, realistic descriptions of police work, and dry wit” (Booklist).
 
At near midnight on a sweltering hot July Saturday, Det. Chief Inspector Harry Brock is called to a murder in a house at West Drayton, close to Heathrow Airport. The murder victim is Clifford Gregory, the accountant husband of attractive air stewardess Sharon Gregory.
 
Sharon’s account of the break-in that resulted in her husband’s murder does not ring true, however, and when Brock and his assistant Det. Sergeant Dave Poole seek to interview Sharon a second time, they find that she has disappeared.
 
Brock and Poole soon find themselves caught up in a complex investigation where nothing is as it seems and the more they discover about the case, the less they really know.
 
“A consistently entertaining series.” —Publishers Weekly

    A murder at the airport leads two detectives to an international crime ring in this “consistently good British police procedural” series (Booklist).   On Christmas Day, Det. Chief Inspector Harry Brock’s celebrations are interrupted when he is called to a murder at Heathrow Airport. Kerry Hammond was due to fly out to New York with her husband—but never made it further than the car park. Brock and his sidekick, DS Dave Poole, put Kerry’s husband at the top of their suspect list, but the case becomes increasingly complex, and they find themselves embroiled in a complex case of smuggling that stretches from the South of France to Central London.   Writing as always “for readers who enjoy their mysteries laced with witty dialogue and lightly comedic moments,” Graham Ison delivers another delightful package of mystery (Booklist).
