Everyone would rather be somewhere warmer, which is why it's a big surprise when a wanted drug smuggler, Bruce Hopkins, risks a return to his old haunts in Colchester after a decade long exile on the Costa del Sol. Lured back by a letter from the wife Hopkins left behind, no one is more surprised than him when he finds himself abducted and stripped bare only to be sent to a watery grave in the boot of a stolen Ford Sierra. The police wonder if it could be retaliation from a Spanish gang, sending a warning to their English counterparts?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDS Daniel Kenton is teamed up with the unorthodox DS Brazier to investigate a crime wave which takes in not only the murder of an expat dope smuggler, but a sophisticated arson attack on a Norman church and the unexpected suicide of an ageing florist. Could there possibly be a thread that connects them?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWritten with the humour and period detail that have become his trademark, and set in the badlands of his beloved Essex, \u003ci\u003eThe Winter Visitor\u003c\/i\u003e is James Henry at his inimitable best.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Quercus Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44895273025765,"sku":"NP9781529431735","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/O_eb9ce549-5d1f-4937-a86e-0f20b5f5fc03.jpg?v=1773107023","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/the-winter-visitor-isbn-9781529431735","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
