Death's Kiss

DS Tomek Bowen Crime Thriller, Book 4

By: Jack Probyn

Narrated by: Scott Fleming

The darkest secrets never stay secret for long....

When the body of a homeless man is discovered on Southend seafront, wedged between the beach huts of Thorpe Bay, the people of Essex don’t raise an eyebrow. But when the post-mortem reveals the identity to be that of local MP, Herbert Tucker, the town begins to sit up.

As the tide of political and media pressure begins to swell, DS Tomek Bowen must navigate the turbulent waters of the MP's past to determine who would want to stage such a dramatic end for him. Although, with a history as colourful as Herbert's, it soon becomes clear there’s no shortage of suspects.

Death's Kiss is the unforgettable fourth book in the DS Tomek Bowen Essex Murder Mystery series by Jack Probyn. Filled with twists, peppered with romance and flavoured with ounces of dark humor, this fast-paced British detective novel will keep you guessing until the very end when the final shocking twist is revealed. Perfect for fans of JD Kirk, JM Dalgliesh, TG Reid, Simon McCleave, and Rhys Dylan.

MEET THE DETECTIVE: Now on the wrong side of forty, DS Tomek Bowen has begun to worry more about the little things. Like the food he puts in his body, how many pints he can have without feeling too hungover, and what beard dye to use for his increasingly greying hair. But now he has something more important to worry about: a thirteen-year-old daughter he knew nothing about until recently. Now he's a father, life and all its delicate intricacies have become infinitely more difficult and troublesome. On an island at constant risk of flooding, will he sink or swim?
