HAGGARD HAWK - Synopsis

Haggard Hawk is an English Country Crime Novel with a Sharp Edge, Sharp Wit and a Big Central Character.

Nathan Hawk is a retired police officer. A widower with four children scattered all over the world, he has gone to live in a typical English village. He spends his time there struggling with Anger Management Disorder and gardening for all he’s worth. He’s trying to kill time - time he never had when he was head of a Murder Squad ... time he never wanted, time he doesn’t want now.

Then, driving home one night from a dinner party, in the company of a young, female G.P. he comes across a brutal murder.

Much as he resents being told to keep his nose out of the investigation by the arrogant Detective Inspector Charnley, Hawk tries to ... even though he knows the police are on the wrong track.

Then a second murder occurs – that of a new friend Hawk has made in the village – and he’s right back where he used to be. Where he wants to be. Where he feels most at home. Catching a murderer.
