ISBN: 9781908747662 / Angielski / Miękka / 2020 / 230 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) It's the dying days of World War Two, and a child is born during a dramatic air raid that badly damages the family home and destroys the midwife's bicycle. At least, that's what George East's mother told him in later years. But then she also claimed that the painting-by-numbers picture of a bunch of sunflowers in the passageway could be a preparatory sketch for the real thing by Vincent Van Gogh. George's beloved but eccentric mother also claimed royal blood and that her ancestor and not Captain Hardy was the sailor Lord Nelson asked for a kiss as he lay dying on board HMS Victory. In Just...

For starters, how many police officers have 'ACAB' (All Coppers Are Bastards) tattooed on their knuckles? Or get booze and baccy supplies by smuggling them through the continental ferry port he is supposed to be keeping free of crime? Or dispense sometimes very rough justice without troubling the courts? For these and many other reasons, Inspector John 'Jack' Mowgley is a very different detective. He also finds the rules and requirements of political correctness a closed book. After proving a great disappointment to his wife, a painful divorce...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) It's a mystery to his colleagues how Jack Mowgley reached the rank of Detective Inspector.

In the first Mowgley Mystery, the resolutely unreconstructed, unredeemable and unapologetically out-of-date policeman learns that a passenger has gone missing on a ferry crossing to Cherbourg.
