The Amen Cadence

This is the fourth instalment in JJ Salkeld's Cumbrian cop thriller series, Border City Blues. And it all becomes intensely personal for DS Pepper Wilson, as she faces up to personal tragedy, intimate betrayal, and an enemy of apparently bottomless evil. But the forces of law and order must always prevail, right? Right? This novella brings the first part of the Border City Blues saga - the Dai Young story - to a dramatic and violent conclusion. Readers love the hard-boiled mix of thrills, detection, reflection and moments of black humour that J J Salkeld always delivers in spades: 'Once again JJ Salkeld has managed to flawlessly weave another portion of this great saga, spiking your imagination with a toxicity that leaves you craving for more.' 'The touches of humor and humanity liven up these books. And those criminals. The local boy made bad, Dai, is a real piece of work.' 'The character development of the main character is interesting. She is a human being full of flaws and good intentions. The "bad guys" are from all levels of crime and society. This is a great read.'
