ABOUT THE BOOK August 1976 and it seems as though the long hot summer will never end. Early morning at Clacton on the north Essex coast, a light aircraft takes off from the airstrip but struggles for height and crashes into the sea. First on the scene, Sgt Cyril Claydon pulls the pilot’s body from the wreckage. But something else catches his eye. A bulky package wrapped in black plastic is on the passenger seat. Returning to investigate, he makes a grim discovery – another body. And so begins a series of events that puts him and others in danger as he is drawn into the investigation, having to work alongside DI ‘Dick’ Barton, a man with totally alien attitudes. Can they work together? MY REVIEW DISPOSAL by David Evans is an intriguing police procedural novel that will capture your interest from the outset and hold it to the end. Set during the long hot summer of 1976, the police department is struggling and needs more men when a curious case lands in their laps. Sgt Cyril Claydon is coming up to retirement when a small aircraft crashes into the sea in front of him. With the pilot dead, an explanation needs to be found, but when a package in the front sea reveals a dead body, this 'accident' takes a far more sinister turn. Finding himself suddenly promoted, Cyril finds himself working with DI Barton, a man known for his differing attitude. Can these two contrasting men work together to uncover the truth? And will they be able to survive the danger they will find themselves in? I found DISPOSAL by David Evans an easy crime fiction read where the story just flowed and there wasn't too much information to keep track of. I enjoyed the relationship between Cyril and Barton and watching it evolve into respect, and I love some good old police work which there is plenty of in this story. All in all, DISPOSAL is a solid story and I will certainly read more from this author. Author Bio: David Evans is a Scots-born writer who found his true love as well as his inspiration for his detective series, set primarily in Wakefield. Having written all his life, in 2012 he decided to go for it – successfully as the next year, in 2013, he was shortlisted for the CWA Debut Dagger Award. The Wakefield Series became an International Bestseller in June 2017 with success in Canada and Australia as well as the UK. But now, whilst the Wakefield Series awaits the next instalment, David Evans has written Disposal, the first in the Tendring Series, a completely new detective series set in north Essex in the 1970s.
