The beautiful wife of Sir Charles Millhouse, the local MP, is found choked to death in a reservoir. Her clothes and an antique pearl collar she usually wore are missing. Within a short space of time another body is discovered, and the modus operandi repeated. With no clues and little forensic evidence to go on, will quirky Yorkshire policeman Michael Angel's guile be enough to reveal the identity of the choker?
Roger Silverwood writes crime stories about Detective Inspector Michael Angel who lives tolerably happy with his wife Mary in the town of Bromersley in South Yorkshire, UK.
Angel isn't a drunk. He doesn't take drugs. He doesn't smoke, he stopped a year or two back. He doesn't usually chase other women but sometimes he has a fancy and would like to. He's usually hard up and in debt but, up to now, has stayed honest.
He has a reputation of always 'getting his man' - like the Mounties. That's not because he is especially gifted, it's because he's dogged, stubborn, thorough and will use unusual methods if necessary.
If you start reading about him, you'll probably stay reading about him.
