Out Now
The Cardiff Newshound Investigations
Blurb
A worried High Court Judge. A missing Civil Servant. On a dark winter morning in a churchyard in South Wales, a human head found impaled on a stake. The only connection between them – the number thirteen.
Trevor Gwyn Jones, the Cardiff newshound, scents a story.
He starts an investigation that will reveal criminal scheming, commencing in 1916 during World War One, extending to a powerful group today. But his discoveries lead to peril, for himself and those close to him.
The more he discovers, the closer the organisation moves towards him, to eliminate Trevor, to stop him publishing his story.
Can he reveal the extent of their criminal activities as the pressure mounts? In a world of subterfuge, deception and betrayal, finding someone to trust will prove elusive.
