DI Declan Walsh Novel #6
Thirty years ago a group of five child detectives and their dog Dexter made the national press with their ongoing series of crime solving activities. Nicknamed the Magpies their adventures were written up as novels by Reginald Troughton. But now, someone is targeting the Magpies, with Reginald brutally murdered while writing a last "lost" adventure. DI Declan Waish (a childhood fan of the series) and the team of the Last Chance Saloon crime unit are on the case.
At least this outing takes place a month out from the last book and involves a new separate case, the previous couple of books all concerned a single plot line and were best served as reading them as one long novel. I am really enjoying this series. Mr. Gatland is a talented prolific writer and I look forward to reading all of his books. Highly recommended.
