Editorial Reviews

Product Description

When the body of a child murdered more than thirty years ago is discovered in the Warwickshire countryside, it reveals hidden secrets from the past which impact upon the futures of so many people.

A former police detective and an ex-gangster each have their own motivation for trying to find who was and, more importantly, who wasn't responsible for the murder but for DCI Danny Isham, the quest for the truth becomes far more personal than he could ever have imagined.

In his search for answers, Isham will discover not only what really happened to the child victims all those years ago, but also that his own life is part of the riddle; a riddle which would destroy his past and alter his future for ever...

More About the Author

Hi, my name is Adam Williams and I am a self-confessed crime fiction addict. Having consumed every volume that Rankin, Billingham et al. could throw at me, there was only one thing left for me to do; create my own.

Whilst now residing in the idyllic Perthshire countryside, I set my first novel, The Future of the Past, in my native West Midlands and decided to create a protagonist detective with a difference. Rather than plump for the somewhat clichéd maverick cop with a troubled past, DCI Danny Isham is, at the start of the novel at least, the exact opposite.

With an exemplary career record, happy and settled personal life and the perfect childhood upbringing, Isham embarks upon the reinvestigation of a thirty year old case of child abduction and murder which leads him along a path of personal discovery which sees everything he thought he knew about his life unravel, leading to him making personal and professional decisions which would have disastrous consequences.

I really hope you enjoy reading The Future of the Past as much as I enjoyed writing it and that you will look out for the sequel, provisionally entitled 'Best Served Cold', which I am working on currently and will keep you all up to date on its progress.
