Game Over (Detective Inspector Slider Mystery #11)

Description

Incorrigible middle-aged Detective Inspector Bill Slider and his team investigate the murder of an ex-BBC journalist - and find corruption in high places - in the eleventh mystery in the critically acclaimed series.

The murder of any journalist is bound to whip the news media into a frenzy. So when ex-BBC correspondent Ed Stonax is found dead, the last thing Detective Inspector Slider needs to complicate his life is the reappearance of an old enemy issuing death threats. Trevor Bates, aka The Needle, is on the loose and trying to kill him, and with a high-profile murder to solve, he must try to find a spare moment to marry Joanna before their baby is born - and stay alive long enough to do it . . .

Game Over finds the everyman hero and his team grappling with corruption in high places as two old cases come back to haunt him.
