Jim Kelly Book Launch

Cambridge, 1940. It is the first winter of the war, and snow is falling. When an evacuee drowns in the river, his body swept away, Detective Inspector Eden Brooke sets out to investigate what seems to be a deliberate attack. The following night, a local electronics factory is attacked, and an Irish republican slogan is left at the scene. The IRA are campaigning to win freedom for Ulster, but why has Cambridge been chosen as a target? And when Brooke learns that the drowned boy was part of the close-knit local Irish Catholic community, he begins to question whether there may be a connection between the boy’s death and the attack at the factory. As more riddles come to light, can Brooke solve the mystery before a second attack claims a famous victim?

It is always a delight to host an evening with  Ely-based  crime writer Jim Kelly, and we are especially excited to celebrate the launch of the second in the Nighthawk series.  Jim’s talks are always insightful and entertaining, a fascinating window into the writer’s craft – not to be missed!
