Arbroath Smokie Slaying

by Steve Higgs

Overview

On a culinary tour of the British Isles, a retired detective and a failed police dog intend to taste the kippers that made the town famous ...

... but when the first person they meet turns up dead a few hours later in an apparent suicide neither one of them believes, both man and dog must accept they've stumbled into another mystery.

All too soon, they wish they hadn't poked their noses in because what they have uncovered could be truly sinister.

Hidden in the past, a crime few know about yearns to be revealed, but there are some who will do anything to ensure the secret never sees the light of day.

Is the slaying finished?

Baking. It can get a guy killed.

About the Author

At school, the author was mostly disinterested in every subject except creative writing, for which, at age ten, he won his first award. However, calling it his first award suggests that there have been more, which there have not. Accolades may come but, in the meantime, he is having a ball writing mystery stories and crime thrillers and claims to have more than a hundred books forming an unruly queue in his head as they clamour to get out. He lives in the south-east corner of England with a duo of lazy sausage dogs. Surrounded by rolling hills, brooding castles, and vineyards, he doubts he will ever leave, the beer is just too good.5
