About this deal

mile circular trail that starts from either the train station, or the car park at the recreation centre, and takes you down Acle Dyke, along the River Bure past the Bridge Inn to Fishley, and then inland to Upton and back across the fields, passing some of the pillboxes and spigot mortar pedestals that remain. Overall this is a brilliant first serious book for David and I can’t wait to read the sequel, which is due out later this year.

The Flotilla consisted of fast, armed motor boats which patrolled the inland waterways, investigating suspicious activity and laying mines on the open broads to prevent enemy sea planes from landing.A girl’s body found mutilated by a boat’s propeller, another dumped at the bottom of a slipway, and a disused Norfolk mill, hiding the secret to both. Characterisation was a little two dimensional and the interactions between the police officers was superficial.

A brief synopsis: After losing his daughter, Detective Inspector John Tanner moves from the bustling city of London, England to the small boating city of Norfolk. It was a monumental change for DI John Tanner: used to the shortened vistas of life in London it wasn't going to be easy to come to terms with the wide open skies of Norfolk. Perhaps this is because the author does not want to give too much of him away since this is the first novel of a series, but I would have expected more personality from him than I got.It sits at the junction of three major roads – the road leading up from Acle Bridge, the Yarmouth Road and the Reedham Road. Soon the disappearance turns into murder and Tanner clashes with a veteran of the department, DI Burgess. Moving on a few years to 1910 when Donald, along with his brothers Charlie and Archie, joined a group of friends aboard the wherry Bertha. With the discovery of a second similar murder things take a darker and more sinister turn, and the race is on to catch a killer bent on revenge.

Detective Inspector John Tanner is a destroyed man by his daughter's murder and from the crowded and crime-filled streets of London, he moves to a small village, Wroxham near Norwich, England. The photograph, below left, was sent to me by Katy Roy and showed the presentation to Hubert Newstead on his retirement as manager of the ironmongery department of Roys in 1961. I want to thank NetGalley and Black Oak Publishing for forwarding to me a copy of this book for me to read and review. I could not help but compare the characters and situations found here with the tv series “Midsomer Murders”.

I didn’t feel I got to know any of the characters very well, didn’t understand the interactions between John and Jenny finding them rather inappropriate for strangers working together on a case and ultimately came away feeling the story a bit unbelievable. It’s been a difficult year for all and Christmas is going to be very different, but let’s hope that 2021 is kinder to everyone. from Salhouse, an avid reader of adventure novels who worked in China and Glass and cycled home to give lunch to her mother each day. The police interviews under caution are also cringe worthy and the response of the suspects dim and dimmer.

New boy to the team, just transferred in, DI John Tanner is teamed up with born-and-bred DC Jenny Evans to investigate. I was recently sent a set of images by David Coote who holidayed as a babe in arms with his family aboard the houseboat “Gray Malkin” at Brundall in 1964.The latest hand-held detection device and Licence Administration Support System is demonstrated by model frogman Chris Wilson.
