Description

THREADBARE - A Strange Case of Murder! - Hollingdrake is to Harrogate what Rankin (Rebus) is to Edinburgh.

An intelligent crime thriller. - TOP 1,000 REVIEWER

Yet another masterpiece from the warped imagination of Mr Hollingdrake

Another unique and well written book

The Harrogate Crime Series - for fans of J R Ellis, Angela Marsons, Ian Rankin and LJ Ross.

Readers LOVE Threadbare - 'It works perfectly as a standalone read'.

The team is seeing changes. Cyril is away and for the second time, Owen finds himself in charge of the investigation. An elderly gentleman dies of a snake bite and unfortunately his carer is also attacked. The second murder is a shooting, an unusual weapon being used, again an elderly victim.
A photograph of four friends celebrating a win at the Great St Wilfred's Stakes at Ripon races in 1986 seems to be significant, but the relevance, at first, is lost in the investigation.
Another victim, one of the friends in the photograph, is found dead in his home. Only one of the friends remains alive and Owen and his team fight against time to prevent his murder.
The investigation is hampered by two siblings, the Bostock brothers, who have a history of rivalry and hatred; one of them is in the Ripon races photograph.
DS April Richmond's biblical knowledge proves critical in solving the crime. The snake, Lilith, conjures the Garden of Eden. Two more fatalities occur before the crimes are solved and the motive is revealed.

'An excellent, well-written, twisty tale again in the DCI Bennett series. Nicely revealed plot and I'm enjoying the continuing personal stories interwoven into the crime story. If you love your UK crime, I'd suggest starting this series from book 1, it's a cracker!'
Donna Dee - America

'Hollingdrake is to Harrogate what Rankin (Rebus) is to Edinburgh - able to build a realistic landscape to portray his characters against - I love the way the characters are evolving, the pace is good and the plots compelling - Enjoy!'
