Description
03:45 hours, Friday 15th February 1974.
A small figure stands silently in the gusty breeze.
He draws out a strange device from within his pocket and places it firmly on the wooden window frame.
After securing it tightly he deftly bores into frame, creating a gap for him to release the latch and enter into the darkness of the frame.
Waking the sleeping occupants with a jab of a double-barrelled shotgun he forces them to hand over the keys to the post office safe.
It is only the attempted heroism of Donald Skepper that ruins the plan. Unfortunately for Donald, the burglar is quicker on the trigger than he is in his assault and twenty lead pellets rip through the postmaster’s ribcage.
This is no ordinary burglar, he is the notorious ‘Black Panther’.
A vicious man who has ripped through the post offices of England and whose crimes appear to be becoming increasingly violent.
Detective Sergeant – currently Acting Detective Inspector – Groat has been called upon by his colleague Detective Sergeant Ted Pearson to assist him in the pursuit of this brutal criminal.
As their lives become increasingly intertwined and ever more complicated will they be able to catch their man?
And as the Panther moves away from simple armed robbery to search for ‘The Perfect Crime’ their pursuit is made ever more urgent.
‘The Perfect Crime’ is a gripping crime thriller that chills to the bone.
Roger Forsdyke. 32 years a copper, then civilian investigator. Everything from shoplifters, drunks and burglars to rape and murder, via fraud, robbery and bent coppers. Born in the East End and educated at the same establishment that produced Frank Muir, Jonathan Ross and David Jacobi. Started writing as an escape from police work, but in spite of that, became a member of the Crime Writers Association in the 1990’s. Likes cars, boats, loud music and the odd tipple. Married, with three sons – all police officers – he lives in the beautiful cathedral city of Lincoln.
