Dying Day

by James Mitchell

Bill Day – former RAF Wing Commander, war hero and superb pilot. Did he really help fly five fugitive SS men - and their loot - out of Berlin during the 1948 airlift in his company’s Dakota… none of them to be seen again? Forty years on, Anglo-Italian private eye Ron Hogget is hired to find that missing aircraft but soon finds he is not the only one searching for it, its pilot and its cargo. All he has to do is follow the trail of bodies and hope one of them isn’t his…
In the 1980s, after massive success as a writer for television with Callan and When The Boat Comes In, James Mitchell returned to novel writing with a new Tommaso Ronald Hogget, the Anglo-Italian private eye who excels at finding things, in a trilogy of fast-paced, jet-setting thrillers.
