Here comes the copper

by Henry Wade

About this book

Unlike Wade's mysteries with his series detective Inspector Poole, this book is set of short whodunnits, each chapter covering a crime investigated by an ambitious young policeman who hopes someday to make his way into the ranks of the CID. From fantasticfiction dot com: "PC John Bragg is young and full of ambition, and with his eye on making Superintendent one day, he squares up to each case that comes his way as an opportunity to show himself brave, reliable and a good detective. In town and country, at scenes of murder, robbery, fraud, abduction, military and industrial spying and arson, PC John Bragg's character grows as his mettle is tested. From dealing with artists' models in a murder case, to ensuring a bejewelled, high-spirited American heiress doesn't attract the wrong sort of attention, to protecting the pay destined for a staff of quarrymen, PC Bragg has his work cut out for him."
