Tim Willocks: Bloodstained Kings [1995] hardback

BLOODSTAINED KINGS is an extraordinary Gothic thriller - DIE HARD meets TOSCA. Set in the American South, it is the story of the Malign influence one man - a corrupt and evil policeman - can exert even beyond the grave. Torture, murder, honour and betrayal: all the Willocks ingredients are here - in a beautifully plotted, wonderfully written novel that will confirm him as one of the few British writers who can sell in all markets, highbrow aand lowbrow.
