An Inspector Christy Kennedy Mystery

In this third Detective Inspector Christy Kennedy Mystery, the Camden Town detective and his team are racing against the clock to discover the truth about two bizarre and savage killings.
First the mutilated corpse of 'Flute' Burton is discovered beside an ornate fountain in Camden Town, his throat seemingly ripped out by a savage animal. Then, two days later, the bludgeoned body of estate agent John B Stone is found nearby. Is there a connection between the two deaths?
It doesn't help when Kennedy's romantic partner Ann Rea leaves London to go and visit an old friend by the seaside. But soon she is unwittingly providing answers to some very disturbing questions...
This third Kennedy mystery pits the Camden Town detective against his most devious adversary to date and reacquaints him with the wheeler-dealings of the music industry. And it doesn't take long before the sparks start to fly...
