Single Handed

by Nathan Burrows

Overview

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...?

About the Author

Nathan Burrows is a writer based in Norfolk in the east of the United Kingdom.

Primarily a thriller writer, he enjoys writing character based books where the people in them are the most important things. His latest series is The Preacher series featuring a unique hero (or is he an anti-hero?) called Caleb who wanders the world—dressed in a robe.

Nathan has worked in some pretty interesting places over the past twenty-five years including Afghanistan, Iraq, Sierra Leone, Bosnia, and Eastern Europe and is still proud to serve. His travels and adventures have helped with writing many of his books, such as the British Military Thriller series, but you’ll have to work out what’s fact and what’s fiction for yourself!

Writing as N.D. Burrows, he's also the author of a dark comedy trilogy. The first in the series is 'The Butcher', a deliciously funny story about - amongst other things - sausages. The second in the series is 'The Baker', which features Norfolk's most useless cult. And finally, 'The Candlestick Maker' is about a fitness instructor with a difference.

Nathan's a keen reader as well as a writer. He occasionally runs marathons, has a Norwich City football club season ticket, and is the proud part-owner of a Daschund puppy called Bertie.

Editorial Reviews

This book kept me completely immersed from the start! The twists and turns kept my head spinning as I tried to guess the outcome. The characters are continuing to evolve and are very realistic. Even though this is a series, each book can be read as a stand-alone.
