THE DETECTIVES
Detective Kate Hamblin is a feisty, young police detective with a dynamic approach to her job. She is plucky and tenacious, but prone to being impetuous and headstrong, which often lands her in tight spots and does not exactly endear her to her crusty boss, DI Ted Roscoe.
In stark contrast to Kate, her detective partner, Hayden, is an untidy ex-public schoolboy, with a pompous, laidback attitude, which drives her to distraction. But he is also highly intelligent, with a keen, analytical mind and a practical, reasoned approach to everything, which often acts as a brake on some of his partner’s more impulsive actions.
THE SETTING
A patchwork of fields, peat moor and marshland, dotted with picturesque villages and criss-crossed by man-made irrigation ditches or rhynes, the Somerset Levels covers an area of about 160,000 acres between the Mendips and Quantock Hills. Sparsely populated and prone to flooding with a brooding stillness, which creeps into the very soul; a secret place bound to fire the imagination of any self-respecting crime novelist, whose thoughts will invariably turn to . . . murder.
THE AUTHOR
David Hodges is a former police superintendent, with thirty years’ service. He has received critical media acclaim, is the author of seventeen published crime novels, with his Somerset Levels Murder series attracting keen interest in Europe, the United States, Canada and Australia, as well as in the UK.
