Tunnel of terror
Losing Control
Terror in Teesside
A dead body washes up in Hartlepool Historic Quay. The autopsy reveals he was murdered. Police officers trace the scene of crime to the south bank of the River Tees where night watchman, Alf, keeps watch over a shrine. A woman comes forward to identify the victim, claiming to be his sister. The murder weapon is found in the possession of the colleague who reported him missing. It seems that the case can be closed.
But DI Julie Cadell is not so sure.

In Houston for the day job, I went back to visit my old house and primary school from when my dad had a sabbatical at Rice University. Fleming park is much smaller than I remember but the fire ants are still there! Highlight was a full Tex-Mex with Theresa and Bhopal expert Kenneth Bloch – plans afoot for a new book.

Celebrating the re-issue of the Jaq Silver thriller quartet – I`ll send a book anywhere in the world to the first person to correctly identify the exact location of the photo(s) after each book title.

I swam 24km in 5 days. Hard work?
Try tuna canning, salt drying or sulphur mining…
