The Dark Shepherds — Ian Kennedy Martin

Newly resigned from the Welsh police to avoid being sacked ex-detective Petroc Corrigan is hired to investigate a bizarre murder in France with a background of the daily machinations of the Bordeaux wine trade. He is soon to confront the unlikely pairing of a psychopathic millionaire poet and his pet hitman. And also be faced with bloody encounters with others as dangerous. He'll soon have to learn that might can definitely become right, and wrong can just as easily become right. There are two more Corrigan novels on Lulu and Kindle. Ian Kennedy Martin is the creator of the Sweeney and other T.V. series.
