Body Breaker

The second dark and twisted thriller in the Avison Fluke series by M. W. Craven, the acclaimed author of The Puppet Show.

Investigating how a severed hand ends up on the third green of a Cumbrian golf course is not how Detective Inspector Avison Fluke has planned to spend his Saturday.

So when a secret protection unit from London swoops in quoting national security, he's secretly pleased.

But trouble is never far away.

A young woman arrives at his lakeside cabin with a cryptic message: a code known to only a handful of people and it forces Fluke back into the investigation he's only just been barred from.

In a case that will change his life forever, Fluke immerses himself in a world of New Age travellers, corrupt cops and domestic extremists.

Before long he's alienated his entire team, has been arrested under the Terrorism Act - and has made a pact with the Devil himself.

But a voice has called out to him from beyond the grave.

And Fluke is only getting started...
