The Return of the Murder Squad in The Black Country
Inspector Walter Day and Sergeant Nevil Hammersmith arrived to a chilly reception. The villagers of Blackhampton have their ways, superstitions, and secrets, and they don’t want the outsider detectives to be upsetting their lives. Despite the lack of help from the village, Day and Hammersmith forge ahead in their investigation but the apathy from the village develops into hostile undertones.
Day and Hammersmith have only two days to find the family before all hope fades, yet the danger grows for both men with the threat of dying in this isolated village. The Black Country is a historical mystery set in 1890 at the beginning of modern investigation and continues the story from the bestseller, The Yard, by Alex Grecian.
