NOTES

"Classy and able thriller, with crunchy London backgrounds . . . An agile and ingenious plot . . . (The) forecast for the series is excellent." -Literary Review A married airline pilot lies dead in his London flat-a shattered champagne bottle left protruding from his abdomen. Film footage shows Teddy leaving Heathrow with an unidentified man. What secrets is he hiding? Ex-cop turned private investigator Billy Rucker joins the case on the exhortation of Teddy's brother, a well-known MP. For Rucker it's the start of a lonely trail through the city, clutching a grainy black and white photograph and a gnawing suspicion at the pit of his stomach. Until a chilling phone call in the night changes everything . . . Packed with chilling suspense, Adam Baron is perfect for fans of Stuart MacBride, Robert Bryndza or Peter James. Praise for Adam Baron: "Rucker is an intelligent, reflective hero, a man well worth keeping an eye on." -Donna Leon, New York Times-bestselling author of the Commissario Brunetti series "It is Rucker's disillusioned monologue that makes Shut Eye stand out . . . An accomplished first novel." -The Times "A surefire hit." -Aberdeen Evening Express "Good gritty stuff." -Crime Time "A treat." -Evening Standard
