The Tangled Skein

The loose ends of murder take crusading cop Martin Nicols thousands of miles from his home beat . and into a steaming hotbed of child vice, inhuman torture and death.But this time Nicols struggles against more than evil puppetmasters with ultimate power over their helpless young victims . he must also contend with hostile and jealous colleagues and infuriating red tape that threatens to hog tie his investigation and let the guilty get away with murder.Unlike lesser crime writers, Kinnon does not insult us by scattering red herrings as he tears through his story. Every lead matters. All the intelligent reader must do is to decide how much. Just like in a real murder hunt, the solid evidence unfolding page by page points in more directions than a weather vane in a gale. It isn't wise to attempt to outguess Kinnon - but it's fruitless to try to resist the temptation as you're drawn into his book as a silent character
