Omschrijving

Detective Inspector Michael Angel returns to face his toughest case yet - and this time, he's missing his right-hand man!

Discover a brand-new, page-turning murder mystery in the bestselling series. One million books read!

One dead actor, murdered on set while the cameras roll.

When dashing Rodney Pertwee is shot at Northern Film Studios, everyone assumes it's part of the script. Until Rodney's leading lady spots a bloodstain that's anything but fake.

Enter Inspector Angel. He arrives to find a room full of shaken witnesses. They all watched Rodney die. Yet no one saw the real-life shooter.

Who's telling the truth - and who's turning in an award-winning performance?

Out of the corner of his eye, Angel glimpses a mysterious woman in green, slipping out the exit. No one knows her name. Or what she was doing on the closed set.

Angel's determined to find out. But he can't do it without his loyal DC Scrivens - who's been kidnapped by a ruthless local gang.

Can Angel save his friend before the killer returns for one final cut?

A brilliantly absorbing and twisty mystery. Perfect for fans of J.M. Dalgliesh, Faith Martin, Peter Robinson, Reginald Hill, and Agatha Christie.

THE DETECTIVEMichael Angel is over fifty, married to Mary. They don't have any children. They are a devoted couple but the relationship sometimes breaks down due to his job or due to the problems of Mary's sister who lives in Edinburgh and imposes on their easygoing natures. Michael works at the small local police station and is devoted to defeating crime, murder, and dishonesty of any sort and has no personal ambition beyond being a good husband and a successful detective. He doesn't want promotion with all the routine office work and stress that goes with it. THE SETTINGBromersley is a market town at the bottom of the Pennines surrounded by stone and hawthorn-edged fields grazed by cattle and sheep. It is cold as anywhere in the winter but its closeness to the mountains protects it from many gales and heavy falls of snow. The town's industry today includes the manufacture of ball bearings and whisky bottles, and a huge brewery produces Bromersley's best bitter, which is considered the finest beer for miles around.PRAISE FOR ROGER SILVERWOOD: 'Solid plotting, unpretentious writing, thoroughly reliable entertainment.' Morning Star'A cast of characters you really want to populate with familiar faces of actors you see each week on TV - great fun. Angel is terrific.' Books Monthly'Once again Silverwood combines a classic mystery plot with well-developed characters.' Publishers Weekly⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'A really good storyline with all the twists and turns I have come to expect from Roger Silverwood and just the right amount of humour.' Marie⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Well written and humorous, I couldn't put it down.' Jenny M.
