Old evil never dies

When private investigator Charlie Slater is found shot dead in his car on historic Lepe beach, DI Max Angel and his team find themselves torn between the present and the past. Did Slater's own chequered past lead to his death at the hands of the family he wronged? Or was it the forgotten secrets from a lifetime ago he unearthed, old evil spawned in Lager Sylt on Alderney, the only Nazi concentration camp ever to sit on British soil?

As long-dormant, bitter grievances come alive amid rumours of collaboration and black-market racketeering, whispers of a government cover-up protecting the informer known as Father Coutanche suggest Slater isn't the first person to die in an ill-advised attempt to shine a light on war crimes unpunished for eighty years.

Angel knows he's getting close when an agent from the Security Service MI5 hijacks the investigation, his sole aim to bury it for the next eighty years. Except nobody tells Angel to back off, least of all a jumped-up spook in a regimental tie. Angel answers to a higher power, and God help anyone who gets between him and the truth.

Old Evil is the second book in the new Angel & Kincade series of crime thrillers from USA Today bestselling author, James Harper, a gripping murder mystery you won’t be able to put down until you’ve turned the final page.
