Description
Murder on the Second Tee is the follow-up to the popular crime fiction novel Murder on Page One. The directors of the niche Bucephalus Bank are meeting in a St Andrews hotel. One of them is found dead on the golf course. It is Flick Fortune's first case as a detective inspector. As she struggles to uncover the murderer behind the bank's respectable facade, she receives unexpected help from Detective Sergeant Bagawath Chandavarkar (Baggo), who is investigating a multi-million pound money laundering scam. Another murder follows and Flick's old boss and tormentor, ex-Inspector No, makes an unwelcome intrusion before the truth is revealed... Ian Simpson is inspired by a number of authors, including PG?Wodehouse, John Mortimer and William Boyd. His writing style is comparable to Christopher Brookmyre. Murder on the?Second?Tee is a pacey whodunit, laced with the humour that drew glowing reviews for Ian's first novel, Murder on Page One.

A rollicking read.' -- The Journal of the Law Society of Scotland 'Definitely a series to watch out for from a new talent on the crime writing scene.' -- Crime Fiction LoverMore details
