THE KILLING BAY

A FØROYAR NOVEL

CHRIS OULD

The arrival in Tórshavn of environmental activists campaigning against oil exploration in Faroese waters creates tension and conflict as islanders defend their rights to self-determination in the face of foreign ideology. Hours after a violent clash between islanders and protesters, a Danish woman from the activist group is found dead and apparently raped, for which a local man is arrested and charged. But as Hentze and Reyna look deeper into the case it gradually becomes clear that the killing has other motivations, and that both sides are being manipulated in a way which brings betrayal and another death before it’s resolved.

WRITTEN IN DEAD WAX

A VINYL DETECTIVE NOVEL

ANDREW CARTMEL

He is a record collector – a connoisseur of vinyl, hunting out rare and elusive LPs. His business card describes him as the ‘Vinyl Detective’ and some people take this more literally than others. Like the beautiful, mysterious woman who wants to pay him a large sum of money to find a priceless lost recording – on behalf of an extremely wealthy (and rather sinister) shadowy client. Given that he’s just about to run out of cat biscuits, this gets our hero’s full attention. So begins a painful and dangerous odyssey in search of the rarest jazz record of them all…

“An irresistible blend of murder, mystery and music… our protagonist seeks to find the rarest of records – and incidentally solve a murder, right a great historical injustice and, if he’s very lucky, avoid dying in the process.”
Ben Aaronovitch, bestselling author of
Rivers of London

“The Vinyl Detective is one of the sharpest and most original characters I’ve seen for a long time.”

THE RUN-OUT GROOVE

A VINYL DETECTIVE NOVEL

ANDREW CARTMEL

His first adventure consisted of the search for a rare record; his second begins with the discovery of one. When a mint copy of the final album by Valerian – England’s great lost rock band of the 1960s – surfaces in a charity shop, all hell breaks loose. Finding this record triggers a chain of events culminating in our hero learning the true fate of the singer Valerian, who died just after – or was it just before? – the abduction of her two-year-old son.
Along the way, the Vinyl Detective finds himself marked for death, at the wrong end of a shotgun, and unknowingly dosed with LSD as a prelude to being burned alive. And then there’s the grave robbing…

“Like an old 45rpm record, this book crackles with brilliance.”
David Quantick

“This tale of crime, cats and rock & roll unfolds with an authentic sense of the music scene then and now – and a mystery that will keep you guessing.”

I, the Jury
). Walking romantically along the boardwalk, they witness a brutal beating at the hands of some vicious local cops—Hammer wades in to defend the victim.

COMPLEX 90

A MIKE HAMMER NOVEL

MICKEY SPILLANE & MAX ALLAN COLLINS

Hammer accompanies a conservative politician to Moscow on a fact-finding mission. While there, he is arrested by the KGB on a bogus charge, and imprisoned; but he quickly escapes, creating an international incident by getting into a firefight with Russian agents. On his stateside return, the government is none too happy with Mr. Hammer. Russia is insisting upon his return to stand charges, and various government agencies are following him. A question dogs our hero: why him? Why does Russia want him back, and why (as evidence increasingly indicates) was he singled out to accompany the senator to Russia in the first place?

“It may be Spillane’s hero throwing the punches in these stories, but make no mistake—it’s the writer who knocks you out.”
BarnesandNobleReview.com

“[Collins’s] prose never lets up for a second… a slam-bang climax that had us needing a drink when it was over.”
