Book description
Al Greenwood lives in a bungalow by the sea. His passions, in no
particular order, are his Vanden Plas motorcar; his well-kept caravan
(perfect for assignations); and his two Koi carp. But for now Al has
something more pressing on his mind.
His wife, Audrey, has got too much, and Al wants her gone. But she
is tenacious, despite his best efforts, and Al's nosey neighbours are
also beginning to sniff around. There's Mrs Poke Nose spying from the
tree at the bottom of her garden; Kim the fisherman, catcher of the
town's oldest lobster and lover of Miranda (also close to Al's heart);
and Detective Inspector Rump, whose instinct for human beings comes a
poor second to his instinct for fish.
And that's just for starters.
How will Al evade his neighbours? Can he really orchestrate a
cover-up of a cover-up? And what really happened that day on the
cliff?
Cliffhanger is a big ride through Little England, a thriller
unlike any you will have read before, and a stunning debut from a
wholly fresh and original new voice in crime fiction.
Also available, only as an eBook, is Cliffhanger: the Other
Text, the first complete, unedited version. It has a number of
differences - not the opening, that never changed, but the ending and
some important bits in the middle.
