Description

Inspector Marshall's murder investigation is hindered by the gypsies. He uncovers historical cases with a similar MO (dead men, naked women dancing on hilltops, missing albinos) and a legend emerges, generations old, of a gypsy gift. He gets caught up in an ancient dance - something the police rulebook never mentioned - and Fenwick's itinerant January visitors make the road to finding the perpetrator much more interesting. A gripping, cross-genre novel mixing the procedure and deduction of a crime story with the magical elements of fantasy, Journeyman, is a book you will never forget. Shortlisted for The Crime Writers' Association Debut Dagger award, this incredible read is inspired by folk music and dance, and interweaves myth and music alongside the dark and disturbing issues of death and violence.
