Opis

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. What people are saying 'Pure Genius: This is the perfect thriller with a lovable pair of detectives.' Kindle Detective Stories 'This book played my emotions like a musical instrument; brilliantly written, complex, absorbing and edgy.' Post online 'The first part of the book is so fast-moving and tense; I couldn't put it down. This author certainly knows a thing or two about building tension.' Chester Standard 'This is a fabulous book. Short, sharp chapters build up the tension and as usual, we have some great action, drama, and humor.' Goodreads 'Best book I have read this year. Full of tension and suspense and not for those of a nervous disposition.' The Scarborough News 'I adored this book, especially the plot. So original, if a bit scary ' Eastern Press Reviews 'The language is tough and the action, fast and furious. I love Morris and Shoddy; they are such believable characters that are flawed and very human. This is a terrific Five-Star Read' Crime Fiction 'A colorful cast of characters and locations reminiscent of Guy Ritchie films. The dialogue and characters seem very authentic.' Online Review 'Take Hercule Poirot, Philip Marlowe, and Inspector Clouseau, rolled into one, and you have the Penny Detective. This is a highly imaginative five-star read. Post Online
