The Maltese Connection

By Peter K. Tyson

For this revised, updated paperback edition (August 2021), I have corrected a few mistakes and added some new material. It can be read as a standalone or as book 1 in the D?ra the Detective Trilogy or book 4 in the Inspector Morose Series.
Frustrated at the low murder-rate in Iceland, D?ra leaps at the opportunity to participate in a six-month job swap in Malta as part of a new UNESCO cultural exchange programme ("The Inter-Islands Initiative"). Having vowed never to be separated from D?ra again and not averse to some hot weather, Morose tags along with the twins, Elegy and Embalmer. D?ra is hoping to find herself a nice juicy murder in sundrenched Malta which is conveniently situated at the crossroads of international crime with its French, Libyan and Sicilian connections. Soon, she is helping her boss, Inspector Deboneo of the Maltese CID, an original but eccentric thinker, solve the murders of two single mature female tourists. Will they be able to catch the Bugibba Strangler before the serial killer destroys the Maltese tourist industry? And has poor old Morose been left on the sidelines holding the babies?
