Wall's End: A Ryan Jarrod Tyneside Crime Mystery

By Colin Youngman

Join Acting Detective Inspector Ryan Jarrod as he keeps friends and enemies close in his quest to discover a truth hidden behind a veil of police corruption.

When a young man is found dead in a disused and derelict community facility, a seemingly straightforward case of accidental overdose proves to be anything but.
The body is that of Liam Wall. Believed to have ties to a north London County Line drugs operation, Wall and Jarrod are unknown to each other - so how come the dead man has Jarrod's telephone number inked on his forearm?
Unravelling the threads which bind them together sees Jarrod join forces with the Met as they follow a trail of abuse left in the wake of a ruthless gang; a gang who, somehow, remain one step ahead of the enquiry.

Think of Ann Cleeves or LJ Ross with the gritty, urban twist of Ian Rankin and Peter James - that's the Ryan Jarrod series: explosive crime fiction in the mould of traditional dark thrillers.
