    About this ebook

    The third of the Thadeus Burke series continues the antics of the aristocratic Lloyd’s insurance broker and his sister Dr Freddie, together with Inspector Johnny Jackson of Scotland Yard.
    It is now the spring of 1927 and our hero, assisted by his loyal staff, divide their time between the City of London and the City of Cambridge.A wealthy racehorse owning spinster is murdered at her house in Newmarket and we follow the unravelling of this mystery, interwoven with passionate affairs involving the prime suspect and our hero and his sister.Entwined within this tale there are bodies at Brooklands’ motorraces and at horseraces, on the golf course, at the theatre and by the seaside; in addition to the now customary shenanigans at Lloyd’s of London. All these minor interruptions are speedily resolved by Thadeus between his flying lessons in the new Cirrus Moth.More great fun in Britain’s last elegant decade, the nineteen twenties.

    Author

    Terry Minahan

    Terry Minahan lived from an early age in London then for the last twenty years has resided with his wife Lydia in Newmarket; this suited his work with bloodstock insurance and her work as an artist.He left school at sixteen years of age and went straight to a firm of Lloyds’ Brokers, starting in the accounts department then spent many years wandering around the Underwriting Room as a broker, gathering friends and enemies in consideration of a modest monetary reward.He was always an avid reader of detective fiction along with a love of Shakespeare and Plato, and more recently with a passionate interest in classic and baroque music and the study of music theory, coupled with attempts at playing the clarinet.His first book, The Adventures of Thadeus Burke was published in May 2008, and the Further Adventures a year later; the present effort is another sequel following the antics of the same heroes. Look out for the fourth, and maybe final, instalment of the adventures of Thadeus Burke which is progressing well.
