A psychotic with an ear for melodies. A detective trapped inside his own mind. Can he catch the killer before the final beat?

Welsh Inspector Ian Drake barely manages to keep his OCD under control. So after two fellow police officers are brutally murdered on an isolated mountain road, the pressure to solve the case threatens to make him crack. But Drake feels his carefully constructed world falling apart when the killer taunts him with cryptic song lyrics and promises of more death.

As tensions build to a crescendo both at home and at work, the weary detective’s fears are realised when a local politician appears slain by the same sinister hand. And as Drake keeps receiving the culprit’s cruel gibes, his head pounds at the thought of more victims.

Can he catch the sociopathic felon before he loses his sanity… or his life?

Brass in Pocket is the first book in the dynamic Inspector Drake crime series. If you like police procedurals, clever mysteries, and gripping page-turners, then you’ll love Stephen Puleston’s unnerving whodunit.

I write mysteries and thrillers. I have published the first novel in a series featuring Inspector Drake based in North Wales and also the first in a series with Inspector John Marco based in Cardiff. The first Drake mystery is called BRASS IN POCKET and the second WORSE THAN DEAD available as a paperback in July 2014. The third, AGAINST THE TIDE will be available in July 2014. My second detective is Inspector Marco who comes from an Italian/Welsh background and he lives in Cardiff, the capital city of Wales. The first Inspector Marco novel SPEECHLESS has been published on Amazon and the second and third in the series will be published in November 2014 and May 2015. they are presently available as e-books only. Before turning to crime fiction I had written three other unpublished novels and you can read about my writing and about Wales, one of the most beautiful countries in the world, on my website - www.stephenpuleston.co.uk. I was brought up on the Isle of Anglesey, off the North Wales coast and went to school in Holyhead. After a degree in theology from London University I decided to train as a lawyer and returned to work in the practice run by my father on Anglesey. For many years I worked as a lawyer in a small practice representing clients in the criminal courts and doing divorce work all of which has given me valuable raw material for my novels. I still live and work in North Wales where the Inspector Drake novels are set. You can contact me on twitter @stephenpuleston or @inspector_marco Facebook: http://on.fb.me/17G6iIA
