The Poisoned Rock by Robert Daws
“Robert Daws is an exciting addition to the canon of 21st-century crime writers…he brilliantly and vividly brings the darkness of wartime Gibraltar into the glare of contemporary crime-busting searchlights.”
Peter James. International bestselling author of the Inspector Roy Grace series.
With only five weeks to go before the end of her secondment to the Royal Gibraltar Police Force, D.S. Tamara Sullivan is enjoying life on the Rock. With one murder investigation successfully under their belts, Sullivan and her commanding officer, Chief Inspector Gus Broderick, settle down to regular police work under the sunny Mediterranean skies.
As the summer reaches its zenith in Gibraltar Town, a film crew has arrived on the Rock to shoot a movie about one of the most enigmatic and legendary spies of the war years –‘The Queen of Diamonds’. Starring Hollywood A-lister Julia Novacs and produced by Gibraltarian filmmaker Gabriel Isolde, it is the talk of the Rock.
It's only a matter of time before past and present collide, and a dangerous battle begins to conceal the truth about the Rock’s poisonous wartime history. Detectives Sullivan and Broderick become caught in a tangled web of intrigue and murder that will test their skills and working relationship to the limit.
'Atmospheric, tense and thrilling. All the hallmarks of a top crime thriller. Sullivan and Broderick are destined to become two of our best-loved detectives.' Adam Croft. International bestselling author of 'Her Last Tomorrow'.
'Robert Daws is such a good actor – how come he can also write so brilliantly? It shouldn’t be allowed!’.
BAFTA and Emmy award-winning writer William Humble.
