Murder and rock music – the rhythm of life…and death. Wanna dance? DC Harry Stallard nearly died in a botched undercover operation and, no longer fit for frontline duties, he is confined to an office, reviewing cold cases. His first one is the suspicious disappearance of Joey Doane, a brilliant musician on the brink of stardom, which is filed as a suicide. Harry quickly discovers that the original investigation made a breath-taking mistake, and Joey’s family need answers. The problem is, Harry’s not cut out to sit behind a desk, and can’t help reverting to his persona as an undercover officer. So, he dives into Sheffield’s vibrant music scene, and the more waves he makes, the more convinced he is that Joey has been murdered. Is it drugs or the bitter rivalries within the band? Or is it something far more sinister? When people connected to the case start turning up dead, the race is on for Harry to discover the truth, before someone very dear to him becomes the next victim. Perfect for lovers of crime mysteries and popular music alike, Last Verse will keep you on the edge of your seat until the final shocking reveal. Print length - 374 pages.
