Description
An Asian man is found shot dead on a remote moor road between Bradford and Halifax and a police search begins to discover his identity. Meanwhile, an Asian woman reports that her husband has gone missing. The two are found to be connected and the police believe this to be an honour killing. This is the story of the police investigation culminating in a trial of those thought to be responsible. A powerful, intense and compelling read.In an almost unprecedented career move, a Senior Yorkshire Judge has turned himself into a prolific novelist. James, who as a QC worked out of the top Leeds Chambers at Park Court, was involved in many high profile criminal cases all over the UK and in the South Pacific. Then, as a Judge, he presided over some of the notorious murder cases that came before the Bradford and Leeds Courts. The experience of these cases lies behind all his novels. The first, The Honour Killing came out in late 2017 (under a pseudonym J S Hamilton), to be followed by Missing, about a vanished au pair girl, and then Slaughter, soon to be followed by Ripper2 (all written under the name James Stewart).
