Pool of Life Pete Trewin

Jack 'Flash' Gordon's private investigation business in Liverpool is in trouble with staffing issues and changing technology. So when Sarah Gladwyn from an old Welsh family commissions the ex-copper to investigate a series of threats and attacks from an anonymous assailant, it seems like a lifeline. The stalker is obsessed with the family's role in oppressing the local slate workers in Victorian times and stealing Welsh water for use in England.

It's a great opportunity for Jack so what could possibly go wrong? How about murders, discovery of skeletons in cupboards, conspiracies, bent coppers, corrupt politicians, violent gangsters and a terrorist threat to Liverpool's water supply. Flash Gordon? He'll need to be Jumping Jack Flash to get through this one.
