Intent to Murder

(1948)
A novel by

 
 
Two words "Not Guilty". To an innocent man they bring validation and relief, but what if the man isn't innocent, what if they had literally gotten away with murder? Bruce Harrison knew that this was the wrong verdict, but even worse than this, to add insult to injury this murderer had stolen Harrison girl.
Soon it became apparent to Harrison that no one was happy with the verdict, not himself, not the police and not the mysterious stranger that dropped by one night with a shocking revelation.

Fiction maestro John Creasey ( 1908 - 1973 ) was and remains an enigma. He was one of the biggest selling and (by most measures) the most prolific producer of fiction, of the 20th century, writing over 620 novels in both his own name and through over 25 different pseudonyms including; Norman Deane, Michael Halliday, Jeremy York, Gordon Ashe, JJ Maric and Anthony Morton.

Creasey's popularity is as staggering as his output with book sales approaching 100 million copies across 29 languages in over 100 countries. At the peak of his commercial success Creasey was selling 4 million books a year in the UK and USA alone. Protagonists such as Gideon of Scotland Yard, The Baron and The Toff are lynchpins of British post war crime fiction, and several Creasey works were adapted for TV and film.
