Описание: Introducing the Penny Detective Eight: The Hangman Mystery
Morris Shannon and his long-suffering sidekick Shoddy are on the trail of a brutal killer in this eighth book in the Penny Detective series. This is a story of murder and suspense that is set against the backdrop of Liverpool in the 1980s.
Morris is working for a journalist who wants to track down a killer. He is trying his best to cut through a web of intrigue and lies to get to the truth in this classic British Detective page-turner that is often funny, sometimes very tense but never dull.
The Hangman Mystery will keep you guessing until the last page
WARNING: This Book will not be a life changing experience
Fans of intellectual literature should look away now, or try something more classical. All Penny Detective books contain no messages, big words or complicated plots, but they will, hopefully, while away a couple of hours and entertain. If you are still not convinced; the terrific thing about Amazon is that you can read the first couple of chapters for free. Believe me; these books don't get any better or worse after that.
John Tallon Jones is to literary intellectuals what John Milton (Paradise Lost) and Leo Tolstoy were, to having a 'good laugh.' This is disposable fiction at the sharp end, nothing more.

Описание: Introducing: Inspector Visco 3 Cheer An Italian murder Classic
Set in the South of Italy in the 1980s, Inspector Visco is an honest Italian cop swimming against a tide of corruption and criminality.
You are either a fan of Inspector Visco, or you haven't read any of the books yet. Every novel is an addictive mix that is set in the beautiful but dangerous South of Italy. Visco is not like your average police detective but is as much of an enigma as the south itself. Colourful, tough, dry-witted and occasionally crooked, but at the end of the day, a hen-pecked Italian husband and fashion guru.
Three deaths in a couple of days set alarm bells going about a possible serial killer. The murders lead Visco and his team into a world of Italian cheerleaders and prostitutes. Under pressure from his boss, it is a race against the clock to see if he can connect the clues and find the killer. As always with Visco, nothing is as it seems, and the twist at the end is brutal.
Cheer is part of the Inspector Visco series.
What people are sayingChester Mail
Deliciously Italian and a real page turner set in the sun.
Crime Readers Gazette
Police procedural at its very best. I dare you to guess the murderer.
GoodreadsAny of the stories by English author John Tallon Jones are a pleasure to read, and the Visco series give you a fly-on-the-wall insight, on life in the South of Italy and the shadow of the mafia.

Описание:
Anno Domini: The Coming of the Messiah is the fourth novel by the author Peter Tallon and the first instalment of the Anno Domini trilogy. During the beginning of the reign of Augustus Ceasar, Rome had not long ended a civil-war and was restoring stability in the provinces of its empire. In what is now modern-day Israel and the city of Jerusalem there seemed to be an epi-centre of passive hostility. Perhaps the jewel of the empire, it garnered special dispensation and treatment from the imperial senate from its puppet vassal, King Herod - though his cruelty, paranoia and unending ego had created many an enemy amongst his people. In these tensions, find our story's hero, Centurion Lucius Veranius. Conflict has arisen from a fanatical organisation, the Zealots, in the aim to remove the Roman puppet Herod and his Imperial masters. However, their task is almost insurmountable, leaving much of their ambition resting on the unsuspecting shoulders of a new-born infant: the future King-of-the-Jews, the Messiah, Jesus. Anno Domini: The Coming of the Messiah is an ambitious tale of violence, conspiracy, intrigue and insurrection.
