WORDS ARE TRICKY THINGS.
A heart-felt compliment can make you feel fabulous but a blast of anger can wound deeply. They can even kill.
This gripping short story features a fresh outing for autistic detective Jonathan Roper. He’s called in when a world-famous critic is found murdered in his London penthouse.
As Roper soon discovers, the critic was uncompromising with his opinions, willing to beat-up the biggest stars of stage and screen if he felt they failed to deliver and his legion of fans loved his honesty.
Which gained him a formidable cast of enemies.
All Roper has to do is work out which of his many, many enemies had the determination to see him dead.
To Kill A Critic is the latest story of the unique partnership between Roper and DCI Brian Hooley.
