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.
