A young journalist and his girlfriend visit a small remote island to investigate rumours about the Baron Grevas and his disciples who are believed to be establishing a new peace cult.
David, an untidy, inconsiderate yet determined young man is on a mission to find his story.
When David and Susan stumble upon on a murder, they soon find themselves involved in a series of curious incidents, which they cannot connect, until... the death of Baroness Grevas.
Susan and David are plunged into a mystery with some surprising revelations.
Will David and Susan work through their differences?
And can David finally get to the bottom of the murder and provide his paper with that first-class 'scoop'?
A Coil of Rope is a gripping thriller from a master crime writer J F Straker.
'A perfectly plotted story that is both chilling and memorable.' - Robert Foster, best-selling author of The Lunar Code.
J F Straker was born in Farnborough, Kent and lived in Sussex. During the war he served with The Buffs and on the General Staff and then became a schoolmaster. His interest in writing began at an early age but it was not until the war when he had to spend long periods in the desert with very little distraction that he completed his first novel. He was the author of twenty-five novels including Murder of Miss Emily and Death on a Sunday Morning.
