Summary

Past and present explode in murder.

A counter-terrorist organization stops the murder of a French politician in the Pyrenees. The would-be assassin is killed at the scene. He has a disturbing tattoo on his arm.

Eric Ward meets Ben Shaw at a bankers’ dinner. Ben hires him to look into his old rival and Eric’s ex-wife’s probable new lover, Jason Sullivan. Jason’s disappeared and so has the money for a project he was working on.

DCI Spate is looking into illegal immigration in Newcastle. He speaks to Peter Olinger, local construction magnate, who seems a little shady and has large gambling debts. What’s he hiding?

What connects the three strands is very dark and dangerous indeed.

My favourite book of the series.

This book was such a treat! "The Tattoo Murder" (book 14) and "The Quayside Murder" (book 3) are the best mysteries of the Eric Ward series - flawlessly plotted and paced and full of twists and turns.
