Murder In The Park (The Ralph Chalmers Mysteries Book 10)

In this, Thurbin's tenth book of the series, Ralph Chalmers joins forces with Colonel Stigart from MI6 to flush out a suspected ‘mole’ in the system. Meanwhile the tranquility of one of the Royal Parks is threatened when a Phd student’s body is found among the bracken. Ralph’s challenge is to discover who wants to use the student’s work to break into secure communication systems, and why. Muslim fundamentalists and City equity traders provide contrasting sources of motivation for murder and corruption in this fast moving tale. Our protagonist, aided by his indomitable partner, Katie, confronts religious fundamentalists, helps the police track down the killers, and unmasks the mastermind behind the tragedy. As always, the reader will find the descriptions of the places that Ralph visits charming, and the twist in the final denouement will both excite and surprise. Readers who enjoy the John Le Carre thrillers will love a romp through Murder in the Park.
