Find My Way Home

Nick Sharman Mystery #12

by Mark Timlin

Harry Stonehouse had been a cop, a good one—and straight, unlike Nick Sharman. After taking early retirement he’d landed a job at a security firm. Now he’s dead, and his wife wants Nick to find out who killed him and why. Nick’s been taking a close look at hell recently and doesn’t care too much about anything beyond the next Jack Daniels. But Harry had been a friend, and Nick had screwed his wife and he feels sorry for her. Big mistake. In an unlikely partnership with ex-DI Robber, escaping from resentful retirement at his sister’s, Sharman sets off in pursuit—and finds himself swept along in the deadly aftermath of a £20 million heist. And with that much money at stake, betrayal, double-crossing and murder are just for starters.

[Pat · Rating 4 out of 5]

Fun, hard boiled crime story set in South London. A quick entertaining read with a character you like. Nothing revolutionary but quick, violent and comes together at the end. Also I enjoy the jokes about Croydon but those work for those who know South London.
