Murder at Canary Wharf (The Ralph Chalmers Mysteries Book 8)

In his eighth book in the Ralph Chalmers mysteries, Thurbin pits Ralph and the indomitable Katie against ISIS, the Islamic State terrorists who are determined to bring their cause to London. The shadow of the radicalisation of UK students that falls across the Tall Ships Festival at Canary Wharf in London threatens innocent lives unless Ralph can help SO15, the British police special branch, to thwart the terroristsâ€™ efforts. The action takes the reader from London to Falmouth in Cornwall, and to Pripyat in Ukraine, the site of the Chernobyl disaster of 1986. This thrilling episode reaches crisis point in the docklands of St. Petersburg when the Russian militia and the KGB unleash their forces against would be dissidents and it takes all of Ralphs reserves to survive the crossfire. This fast-moving, action packed story has the reader revelling in the tranquillity of the Cornwall countryside one minute and thrilled by a chase across Europe the next. As always, there is a sting in the tail as Ralph wrestles with his conscience and the pragmatism which eventually drives his action. Thurbin turns out another cracking mystery that is topical, thoroughly researched, and impeccably crafted.
