2 posts | 1 read
Leeds, June 1913. Deputy Chief Constable Tom Harper is a busy man. He's overseeing a national suffragist pilgrimage due in Leeds that his wife Annabelle intends to join, and his daughter Mary has exciting plans of her own. Then a letter arrives from police in New York: Davey Mullen, an American gangster born in Leeds, is on his way back to the city, fleeing a bloody gang war.
Despite Tom's best efforts to keep an eye on him, Davey's arrival triggers a series of chilling events in the city. Is he responsible for the sudden surge in crime, violence and murder on Leeds's streets? Facing a mounting workload, Tom must hunt down a cold-blooded killer while also confronting danger and tragedy close to home.

This was the 17th book that I have read which was written by Chris Nickson. Brass Lives is the latest in the Tom Harper Mystery series. A series which gets better with each story that is published. The majority of the story is police procedural with occasional action. Totally engrossing and heartwarming but with a sad undertone it is a literary must for those who like historical crime. On a par or better than many other crime writers of the past.

I Can't believe that a new book in the Tom Harper series was published without me knowing it. I only found it by chance while browsing. The purchase price varies from £23 downwards. The best I found it for was £16.55 on the Speedyhen online book website with free delivery. Due to the cost of the Chris Nickson books I have decided to join the local library where they have this title available. An amazing Historical Police Procedural series.
