Blood Brother — Frank Palmer

A queasy Detective-Inspector "Jacko" Jackson is at the post-mortem examination of Penny Browne, who was shot through the head at close range in her country home.
Penny was the sister of Russell Browne, a right-wing MP and Home Office minister in charge of the police. A television producer, Penny was as radical as he is reactionary, spending a great deal of time with Rich Richardson, a fiery trade union leader who is young, ambitious - and married. A professional contact - or was he responsible for the pregnancy the pathologist reports Penny had terminated recently?
Frank Palmer's new police thriller is a story of political and business intrigue, tender love, and mounting tension.
