THE NEW SLIM HARDY MYSTERY – RELEASED JULY 5th 2022
Traumatised by a recent case, private investigator John "Slim" Hardy tries to create a new life for himself on the remote Cornish coast. However, when he is recognised by a local woman, he is unable to resist the draw of a dark mystery which has left a long shadow over the village.
Fourteen years earlier, a local man, Richard Maynard, died in mysterious circumstances. The only witness was his five-year-old daughter, Ellen. Now, Richard's sister, Wendy, wants answers. But the only person who might have them is Ellen, now a wraith haunting the dark recesses of a nearby town.
Was Richard murdered? And if so, by whom?
And does Ellen have the answers? Or only more questions?
When the Wind Blows is a dark mystery of small town lies and deceit, and secrets that remain buried until the last page from Jack Benton, the acclaimed author of The Man By the Sea and The Clockmaker's Secret.

What a surprise
My only expression is wow! The book just grab my interest from the very beginning. Slim is such an amazing character. It seems like his betrayed as a person that has a hard life but makes the best of it. I was captivated till the very few pages at the end! I never expected that ending! What a surprise! My heart was beating as I was reading the last couple of pages. I read a lot of books but this book had my heart beating so fast as I was coming to the end of the book. Very few books get that kind of response from me! I just finished it and I have to take some time to settle the beating of my heart! What an amazing book!
