The Goat Parva Murders: An Inspector Knowles Mystery (The Inspector Knowles Mysteries) - Softcover
Book 1 of 6: The Inspector Knowles Mysteries
Synopsis
Just a typical Tuesday night in the English country hamlet of Goat Parva.
The stalkers in the rhododendrons are busy watching the exhibitionists in the windows. Nothing unusual. Until that is when Bingo the retriever returns with a pair of shoes that were last seen adorning the feet of well known voyeur Clem Shapiro.
Steadily the secret lives, peccadilloes and illicit affairs of the inhabitants of this one time idyll of English Country Life all begin to unravel under the dogged investigations of Detective Inspector Colin Knowles. What seemed like a fairly simple case is rapidly deteriorating under a growing mountain of suspects, witnesses and bodies.
Scratch the surface of this sleepy hamlet and it seems everybody has a motive to want somebody else dead. And D.I Knowles has only just begun to scratch.
The Goat Parva Murders is the first in the Inspector Knowles Mysteries and introduces the reader to a cast of eccentric characters that could have escaped right off the pages of a Tom Sharpe novel in search of mayhem, mischief and murder.

About the Author
I was born in Leicester. I attended school in Yorkshire and university in Liverpool.
My sense of humour is distilled from The Goons, Monty Python, The Fast Show, Brass, Fawlty Towers, and Midsomer Murders.
