Deftly Kilned

DEFTLY KILNED Second book in the Hatter Street Private Investigation Agency Series Trust is fragile. Instinct is strong. Don't ignore either. Chronically suspicious Pember Quinn is proving to be a forthright private investigator in Bury St Edmunds. But nothing has prepared him for the vicious sting in the tail of a 'regular' car cloning scam. And instead of investigating, he's reluctantly house sitting for a client who collects porcelain... With Pember distracted, retired DI Clive Merry is determined to get to the bottom of the cloning scam. But after a suspicious death, it takes all his detecting and diplomatic skills to work alongside old colleagues and the victim's solicitor. Decorative porcelain and a glass kiln mask vital evidence. The stories tangle as the cases ramify. Murders nearly pass undetected. Can the police be brought on board in time, or will it be down to Clive and Pember to find the killers before anyone else dies? DEFTLY KILNED is a British detective novel based in rural Suffolk UK. Written in British / UK English.
