In Real Life

All Hell breaks loose in Rilton Castle....'You had sex with me in your dressing room. I was thirteen at the time.'Ronny Hudd, lead singer of heavy metal band Hell's Gate and Britain's favourite hard rocker, is being blackmailed. He calls in Tom Flowers to help him but first Tom has to decide if Ronny is innocent before trying to find the blackmailer.Then a boy is found mutilated in the quiet woods behind Rilton Castle village, giving newly appointed Chief Inspector Regina Muga her first murder since arriving in Dorset. The injuries are strangely familiar and Muga fears an old Pasolini film from the seventies might have inspired the killing.With this third Gemini and Flowers mystery, set in the rural community of Dorset's most beautiful village, everyone's a suspect. Mike Ash, the lord of the manor; Bob Kettle, the publican; Nick Honey, the local yob; Ben Hillor, the ex-army man and Derek Smee, the long-suffering husband of Ginny - they are all in the frame plus a host of new characters. Can Tom find the blackmailer before they ruin Ronny and the final Hell's Gate tour? Can Muga find the killer before he strikes again? Has Operation Yewtree inspired a crime wave? Did violent pornography lead to murder and will James Stonely ever recover from giving Dax a lift home?All these questions and many more will be answered before the end of 'In Real Life'. It is the follow-up to 'Country Life' and 'Family Life', also available on Amazon.
