In Burning Ambition a burnt-out prison van with three pre-murdered bodies inside doesn't make sense. Especially as one of the bodies wasn't a prisoner and should not even be there. Why would these three be killed and what has it to do with the final signature heist being put together by an Organised Crime boss to rob the Royal Mint in Wales? In Takeaway Terror delivery boys on scooters working for a reputable meal delivery service are being targetted and mown down by a large van. Palmer thinks this has something to do with two organised crime gangs who are about to go to war for the lucrative London West End drugs trade. When an old adversary with skills in bomb-making joins one gang Palmer must act and act fast. Will anybody be left standing once the bullets fly, including Palmer?

Family liasons with European Organised crime come to light as the body count grows and people panic.The Bodybuilder. The Pathology Lab calls in Palmer when two bodies with limbs missing turn up. The worrying part is that the limbs have been expertly amputated, why? The third body sets a pattern that can only mean that there is a serial killer on the loose with surgical expertise who is building a body. Who would do such a thing and for what reason. Another DCS Palmer fast moving thriller that never lets the pace cool down.

When millions of pounds are involved loyalties are broken and bodies turn up.

Barry Faulkner is the youngest of an extended family of South London villains operating in the 50s - 90s and although not involved himself that world he grew up in had given him an insight rarely seen.

THE PALMER CASES Justin Palmer started off on the beat as a London policeman in 1964 and is now Detective Chief Superintendent Palmer running the Serial Murder Squad from New Scotland Yard.Not one to pull punches or give a hoot for political correctness if it hinders his inquiries Palmer has gone as far as he will go in the Met. and he knows it. Master of the one line put down and slave to his sciatica he can be as nasty or as nice as he likes. The mid-1990's was a time of reawakening for Palmer as the Information Technology revolution turned forensic science, communication and information gathering skills upside down. Realising the value of this revolution to crime solving Palmer co-opted Detective Sergeant Gheeta Singh, a British Asian WPC onto his team. DS Singh has a degree in IT and was given the go-ahead to update Palmer's IT with all the computer hard and software she needed to do the job. Most of which she wrote herself and some of which is, shall we say, of a grey area when it comes to privacy laws and accessing certain restricted databases! Together with their small team of officers and Claire, a civilian computer clerk nicknamed 'JCB' by the team because she keeps on digging for clues, they take on the serial killers of the UK. On the personal front Palmer has been married to his 'princess', or Mrs P. as she is known to everybody for nearly thirty years. The romance blossomed after the young DC Palmer arrested most of her family who were a bunch of South London petty villains in the 1960's. They have four children and eight grandchildren, a nice house in Dulwich and a faithful dog called Daisy who Palmer dotes on. They also have a neighbour called Benji, a retired, rich Advertising Executive who Palmer doesn't dote on although all Mrs P's friends seem to! Gheeta Singh lives alone in a fourth-floor Barbican apartment having arrived on these shores as part of a refugee family fleeing from Idi Amin's Uganda. Her father and brothers have built up a good computer parts supply company in which it was assumed Gheeta would take an active role on graduating from University. She had other ideas on this, and also on the arranged marriage her mother and aunts still try to coerce her into. Gheeta has two loves, police work and technology, and thanks to Palmer she has her dream job. Combining the old 'coppers nose' and 'gut feelings' of Palmer with the modern IT skills of DS Singh the two make an unlikely but successful team. The books have been described as 'NCIS meets the Sweeney' which seems to sum them up well. All the cases involve multiple killings and twist and turn through author Faulkner's signature red herrings and hidden clues alike keeping the reader in suspense until the very end. Faulkner comes from a family of small-time South London villains and his insights into that world add a ring of truth to his writing. He assures you he avoided that career path himself.

A fast-moving traditional British detective novel with an 'old school' Detective and his modern IT savvy Asian/English Sergeant pursue a serial killer in Poetic Justice who is targetting celebrities who went to the same Dramatic Art College when younger. Is it revenge, and if so revenge for what? The College has a dark secret that unfolds as the pace quickens. In A Killer Is Calling a bitter Naval Scientist absconds with a Weapon of Mass destruction that can be operated through a mobile phone and demands a ransom from London's Mayor. The Mayor is more worried about his upcoming election than death threats until the killer gives an example of the weapon's power. DCS Palmer with DS Singh and the team have only a little time until the killer will unleash the weapon and kill several million Londoners in one strike. Singh's computer and cyber skills come into their own as they close in on the killer in a roller coaster ride to the finale. If you like fast moving detective stories with twists and turns this is for you. A real treat for crime lovers written by an author who knows his subject.
