Death Surge

When a colleague's nephew goes missing, Detective Inspector Andy Horton is recalled from his sailing trip to France. But when the charred remains of a body are discovered in a disused tunnel at the Hilsea Lines in Portsmouth, what began as the hunt for a missing man becomes the search for a ruthless killer.

Un apel telefonic al unui sergent frenetic Cantelli pentru a spune ca nepotului sau, Johnnie Oslow, ii lipseste scurtarea calatoriei de navigare a inspectorului Horton in Franta. Convocat inapoi la Insula Wight, Horton afla ca Johnnie nu s-a prezentat la curse in timpul saptamanii Cowes, asa cum s-a aranjat anterior.
