Single Handed

When a dismembered hand is discovered in a lobster pot off the North Norfolk coast, it’s one less missing person for the police to look for. Until something much darker emerges…a blackmail note.

Gareth Dawson, a reformed criminal whose gruff exterior hides a kind heart, is trying to deal with the aftermath of his brother-in-law's death. But if the extortionist reveals the shameful secret that Gareth’s brother-in-law has been hiding, the truth will destroy both his memory and the lives of those mourning him. As well as those who aren’t.

With his sister refusing to go to the police, Gareth realises that he will have to deal with the situation—alone and single handed. But who is telling the truth? And who is lying?

Can Gareth identify the blackmailer and uncover the truth about his brother-in-law? Or are some family secrets best left hidden…?
