I Live by the River — James Craig

Retired, relocated and restless, former Metropolitan Police cop John Carlyle still has a talent for finding trouble. The mysterious death of his glamorous neighbour, Bella, leads Carlyle into a world of chancers, treasure hunters and criminals.
Groping his way towards the truth about Bella's death, he finds himself up against his most dangerous adversary yet, a killer known simply as 'The Torturer'. One false move and Carlyle's golden years could come to a bloody and premature end.
