In The Midst Of Life (An Inspector Angel mystery Book 1)

Twenty years ago, a nurse in a hospital for the criminally insane was brutally and savagely murdered by a patient.

It later turned out that the patient had had his medication withheld by another nurse, who had been stealing and selling drugs for her own gain €“ and her subsequent disappearance triggers the beginning of a gruesome trail of enquiries.

Then the disgraced nurse€s sister arrives in Inspector Michael Angel€s office with news of a murder, and fears for her own safety.

With some mysterious clues €“ a dead woman wearing one stocking inside out, an American class ring, and two dead cats €“ and a lot of clever humour, Inspector Angel scrambles to find the killer in south Yorkshire.

Despite obstruction from the Chief Constable, the doggedly determined and charismatic Inspector Angel stubbornly ferrets out the suspects.

By relying on his eternally willing right hand man, and resorting to an unusual strategy, he manages to narrow the long list of suspects down.

But are his suspicions right?

And can he stop the killer before anyone else is cut down In the Midst of Life€¦?
