A Choir Of Assassins
ByPublisher Description
Ancient conspiracies and modern-day crimes collide in Pete Adams's 'Choir Of Assassins'. When the seventh officer of Hegemon is assassinated in the Temple Round Church, the body is taken under the London Bridge. Meanwhile, in Portsmouth, the Brainy Boy gang is found not guilty of assaulting Professor Violet Smith, leading former Detective Inspector Cherry Clarke to take matters into her own hands.
However, each of the Brainy Boys is brutally assassinated soon after. As the retired First Sea Lord of the Admiralty is also killed, the discovery of seven severed pinkie fingers sets off alarms in the Mammon crime profiling and data storage programme. With the help of Bong from the Serious Crime Unit of Scotland Yard and Grace Church of MI5, Cherry investigates the mysterious links between these crimes and the Royal Peculiar. But when Professor Smith asks her to become her avuncular, Cherry realizes she might be in over her head.
Full of suspense, twists, and turns, 'Choir Of Assassins' is a must-read for fans of gripping mysteries.

About Pete Adams
Pete Adams is an architect with a practice in Portsmouth, UK, and from there he has, over forty years, designed and built buildings across England and Wales. Pete took up writing after listening to a radio interview of the writer Michael Connolly whilst driving home from Leeds. A passionate reader, the notion of writing his own novel was compelling, but he had always been told you must have a mind map for the book; Jeez, he could never get that.
Pete describes himself as an inveterate daydreamer, and escapes into those dreams by writing crime thrillers with a thoughtful dash of social commentary. He has a writing style shaped by his formative years on an estate that re-housed London families after WWII, and his books have been likened to the writing of Tom Sharpe; his most cherished review, "made me laugh, made me cry, and made me think".
Pete lives in Southsea with his partner, and Charlie the star-struck Border terrier, the children having flown the coop, and has 3 beautiful granddaughters who will play with him so long as he promises not to be silly.
