Facing justice
(Book)

Dealing with a murder, a shooting, big-time gangsters with deadly scores to settle, police corruption, a sick friend, awful weather conditions, an amorous landlady and a wild cat that may be loose on the moors is not the sort of short winter break Detective Superintendent Henry Christie had envisaged. What should have been a pleasant hike through beautiful countryside and an overnight stop in a picturesque village, with his old friend FBI agent Karl Donaldson, turns into a fight for survival in the worst snowstorm for thirty years. But things get much worse as they stumble exhausted and injured into the village pub, and find themselves slap-bang in the middle of a blood-soaked stand-off.......(from inside flap).
