Ghost and Ragman Roll

Kind Hearts and Martinets, Book 4

By: Pete Adams

Narrated by: Sheila Daly Payson

A corpulent gangster gone missing, but found skinny. A banker murdered in Paris. As new schemes are exposed, a brilliantly unfortunate detective persists in solving the crimes.

With his French honeymoon continually interrupted by a series of seemingly unconnected misdeeds, disaffected detective DCI Jack Austin returns to Portsmouth and attempts to find the missing link. As the arrival of an ambitious new detective infringes on his territory - and his ego - Austin resorts to illogically effective tactics to protect those who matter most.

The fourth riveting comedic crime novel in the Kind Hearts and Martinets series, Ghost and Ragman Roll follows DCI Austin’s antics to uncover an ongoing military mystery and foil a perplexing plot. As a cast of colorful characters new and old come to Austin’s aid, will he persuade the perpetrator to reveal himself - and bring him to justice?
