DEATH BY KITCHEN SINK a gripping British crime mystery full of twists (Slater and Norman Mysteries Book 4)

Description

Meet Detectives Slater and Norman, an unlikely crime-solving duo. They might seem like they have nothing in common, except a love of doughnuts and banter. But they never give up on a case, no matter how tough things get . . . Please note, this book was previously published as The Wrong Man. Detectives Slater and Norman receive an unexpected call. The well-heeled residents of exclusive Bishop’s Common keep to themselves and have no need to trouble the police. But not today. Forty-something Diana Woods lies face-down on her kitchen floor, dressed in a slinky black negligee. Stabbed in the back as she stood at her kitchen sink, filling the kettle. Slater and Norman quickly deduce that Mrs Woods must have known her killer. So who did she let into her home that evening? Suspicion immediately falls on her estranged husband. According to the neighbours, he’s a vile bully. Diana was attractive and fun-loving, and for too long, he made her life a misery. But was Mrs Woods the perfect wife she appeared to be? As Slater and Norman dig deeper, they discover that nothing about this case is what it seems. Could they have the wrong man in their sights? This absolutely gripping detective mystery full of twists and turns is perfect for fans of Rachel McLean, J.D. Kirk, Pauline Rowson, Elly Griffiths, Matt Brolly and Simon McCleave.

It has suspense, mystery and murder . . . what more could you ask for.’ Colleen ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘Ford knows how to create characters . . . polar opposites who become mates . . . a perfect English mystery.’ Paul R. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘So twisted that I had a real hard time figuring out who did it and who was lying. This author is really talented.’ Lee MEET THE DETECTIVES DS David Slater is a youngish (not quite forty, thank you!) copper who knows his quiet corner of Hampshire like the back of his hand. The ladies can’t resist his strong, silent manners and bestubbled charms. But among the top brass, he’s persona non grata. Smooth- talking is not one of Slater’s many strengths. And so, he ends up unfairly blamed for a botched operation in the city. Will his unlikely new partnership with DS Norman Norman be the saving of his career? Before he moved to Wales, DS Norman Norman — so good they named him twice — once patrolled the twisty streets of Tinton. His shabby dress sense and aversion to the gym may raise more than a few sniggers among the younger recruits down in Tinton. But what he lacks in fitness, he more than makes up for with hard-won experience and crime-solving nous. Will they be enough to win him the respect of his new partner? ALSO BY P.F.
