You'd Better Believe It

A Detective Colin Harpur Mystery

THIS IS BILL JAMES' FIRST MYSTERY IN THE SERIES!

Bill James

Harpur's domain is a small seaport city south of London. It's not unusual for the big-town criminals to consider such a spot as easy prey. At such times, a policeman must rely keenly upon his colleagues, to be sure, and also upon his retinue of "narks," i.e., tipsters.

This time it's Lloyd's branch that's the target. When the heist is postponed, a policeman is killed. One nark, then another, is murdered. As Harpur becomes driven to his limit, he must bypass regulations and settle things once and for all with a vicious crook named Holly. But not necessarily on his own terms.
