Synopsis
The
setting for DEATH DUTY is 1999, with the world on the brink of a new
millennium. Jack Mowgley, it is commonly agreed, is on the brink of
enforced early retirement. Or worse. Attitudes are changing, and those
in authority think officers like Mowgley have no part to play in the
Modern Police Force. Without doubt, Jack Mowgely is caught in a
time-warp with regard to policing policies and procedures, and PC he
most definitely ain’t.
Author's Biography
While
trying out a number of life options, George East scraped a living as a
private detective, film and TV extra, club bouncer and DJ, demolition
worker, brewer’s drayman, magazine editor, pickled onion manufacturer,
snooker club owner, publican, failed rock god, TV and radio presenter,
PR and marketing supremo, seamstress and the world’s first and probably
only professional bed tester. He gained his knowledge of police
procedure and attitudes as a result of a number of arrests for violent
behaviour in his extreme youth.
Reviews
"I was totally absorbed as the tale unfolded. Not so much by the plot, but by waiting for the next assault on political correctness." Ed. FPN (French Property News)
