Broadland: A chilling Norfolk Broads crime thriller (DI Tanner Norfolk Broads Murder Mystery Series Book 1)

Product Information

The cavalier approach to policing is so amateur that it begs the question: Do they have to be so stupid just to allow the plot a sporting chance to work at all? Norwich is so close to Wroxham that you wonder when a serial killer is suspected they do nothing to assist and manage the PR nightmare. At the outbreak of war in September 1939, a programme of building pillboxes, anti tank blocks and traps, roadblocks, gun emplacements, barbed wire barriers and slit trenches was quickly put in to place both along the coastline itself and also inland. Mark Jermin, the stage school’s director said: “I was delighted when we found out that Thomas had got the part.

And a big thank you to NetGalley and Black Oak Publishing for giving me the chance to read this ARC in exchange of my honest review.A war veteran murdered in his home, a property developer with links to organised crime, and an old family secret that seems unwilling to stay dead.

According to his daughter, Jennifer Woods, in her book “A Famous Broadland Pioneer”, Herbert also purchased several acres of marshland at Horning, just upstream of Swan Corner.

All the evidence points to her husband who had plenty of motive but he has an unexpected alibi, and detectives Tanner and Burgess have to cast their net wider for a suspect. The common features of all of these camps were a large, central main building of very modern design with tennis courts, gymnasiums, ballrooms, dining halls and rows of holiday chalets designed to house the average family comfortably for a week or two. More evidence too that our Broadland holidaymakers may have travelled to the area from north east of the country. These were a modern interpretation of the classic Victorian and Edwardian Broads yachts, and were each named after original Collins yachts – ‘America’, ‘Palace’ and ‘Lapwing’.
