Detective John Gammon Series 3

Will happiness turn to sadness for Detective Inspector John Gammon? With his life in the balance and little or no chance of him being found, this cruel twist of fate could mean the end of our hero.

DI Gammon will go into dark places in his mind and his life as he battles with right and wrong, good and evil. The Cure is set in the beautiful Peak District of Derbyshire. Many tourists walk the same paths that our hero does. If you are one of them, see if you can work out the fictitious villagers and hostelries that Detective Inspector Gammon frequents. Although Gammon is noted as being an excellent detective, the hierarchy has concerns about his maverick ways. Will this hold him back?

This case would test Gammon on a professional and private level. Things were about to get worse for Gammon. Turmoil was to be the order of the day, and could he cope? Months had passed and with all cases closed, life seemed quite slow for DI Gammon, that was until the phone rang in his office. "Yes, Sergeant?" "A young man has been found dead in Dilley Dale, Sir. I have asked DI Lee and Smarty to attend and I have also sent forensics." "Good man, I will make my way there now." Gammon set off for Dilley Dale.

With unfinished cases to close and coupled with the sad events in the previous book Body Parts, Gammon is feeling vulnerable to criticism from his peers. When a new murder is discovered, it takes Gammon into a dark world, which will question his belief in himself.

Christmas is a special time in England. There isn't anywhere more stunning to spend Christmas than in the beautiful Derbyshire Peak District. The meaning stones are about to disrupt this special time. Detective John Gammon will be tested like never before in his private and professional life. His community is under a real threat.
