Publisher Description
Someone is killing British war veterans. Homicide can't see anything suspicious. In fact, the only person asking questions is a jaded Met detective with breakfast beers on his mind. Shame for the killer…
You shouldn't underestimate Brook Deelman.
Standing between Brook and the truth: a police cover-up, a professional hitman, and a dark secret going back to the final throes of WW2. But what exactly happened in those last days at Stalag IV-B? And why is the past catching up with people now?
In a web of loyalty and betrayal, revenge and redemption, an old police saying has never been truer: Assume nothing. The closer Brook Deelman gets to the heart of the conspiracy… the more seismic the twists will become.

Non-suspicious Detective
Very good book
It’s a small world
A great story split between two decades
Two fascinating plots interweave in this book as a detective pieces together clues to a murder that has its origins in the horrors of a concentration camp. The vivid character descriptions made it easy to step into the shoes of the respective protagonists - even sympathizing with their aches and pains and sharing their lighter moments. Together, the storyline along with the well fleshed-out characters, action scenes and place setting will keep you racing to the end to see how it all turns out!
Great story
As someone who reads one mysteries & thrillers book every day or two since my retirement- this is one of the best I have read- storyline, characters and a twisting and turning plot full of surprises.
