Synopsis

Brontë Falls is a crime story like no other. Exciting, suspenseful and intensely funny it follows the brutal crimes of a copycat serial killer, punctuated by the amusing goings-on of a very odd Yorkshire precinct.
Detective Inspector Charles Brontë, long-suffering, irreverent but effective is on the case along with tough-cookie, Sergeant Jennifer Pepper.
Brontë, ready for retirement is most certainly not ready for a vicious psychopath moving onto his beloved patch, slaying locals Willy-Nilly whilst posing and displaying their dead, mutilated bodies in the villages of the Yorkshire Moors.
Initially Brontë and Pepper struggle to make a connection between the murderer and the victims, making the likelihood of a successful arrest out of reach. It is only with the help from unexpected quarters: an outlaw biker gang, a coven of witches and an American newspaper hack, that Brontë and Pepper can get anywhere near to the gruesome truth... and gruesome is what the truth really is. You will really enjoy this book it is a good fun exciting thriller with a twist and turns and certainly unexpected ending.

    Writing Partners

    Agatha Christie, Arthur Conan...

    To celebrate the new Tommy & Tuppence TV series, a brand new anthology of Golden Age detective stories by the writers who helped to inspire Agatha Christie's Partners in Crime. 
    Agatha Christie’s Partners in Crime paid tribute to her crime-writing colleagues by including references to their detectives in a game of literary pastiche. These detectives and their authors were household names in the 1920s, but most are now long forgotten and the ingenuity of Christie’s parodies is lost to time. 
    The blurb on Partners in Crime's first edition declared: ‘This delightfully witty book will come as a pleasant surprise to all admirers of these ingenious detective thrillers for which Agatha Christie is famous. It tells the story of the amazing adventures of two amateur detectives – Tommy, a remarkable young man of thirty-two, and his equally remarkable wife, Tuppence – who follow the methods of famous detective heroes, such as Sherlock Holmes, Inspector French, Roger Sheringham, Bulldog Drummond, Father Brown and even Monsieur Poirot himself.’  
    Nowadays we might recognize Sherlock Holmes, Inspector French and Father Brown, but who were Malcolm Sage, Thornley Colton, Desmond Okewood and Dr Thorndike? How did Inspector Hanaud, Reggie Fortune and the Old Man in the Corner solve crimes? And did Agatha Christie really parody herself? 
    Featuring some of the finest authors of the Golden Age, this long overdue anthology will have special resonance for Agatha Christie fans. Introduced and contextualised by Agatha Christie expert Dr John Curran, these stories will shine a new light, not only on the unfamiliar authors who inspired Agatha Christie, but also on one of her own most enjoyable short story collections.
