'With the tough matriarch at its heart, this second instalment of
Brett's Great Yarmouth-set series is brilliant seaside noir, the
action playing out at cracking pace in the rough and seedy resort'
Sunday Times Crime Club 'Be prepared to immerse yourself in Great
Yarmouth's murky underworld with this great thriller' Five Stars,
The Sun - 'Book of the Week' Tatiana Goodwin has finally begun to
piece her life back together after the events of the past year.
Having taken over her late husband Rich's empire, Tatty has put
together a massive deal to capitalise on his dirty dealings - and
hopefully extricate herself from a life of crime she'd been
unwillingly drawn into. But following a suspicious fire in the
firm's new HQ, and a number of unexplained deaths in the town, it
soon becomes clear that there's more than one person who's after
the Goodwin family assets. With her daughter in a rocky
relationship and her teenage son Zach beginning to follow in the
footsteps of his gangster father, everything is getting a little
too close to home for Tatty's liking . . . As the family is pulled
further into the criminal underworld she sought to protect them
from, Tatty has some difficult decisions to make - before her
enemies make them for her. 'Things are hotting up . . . But the
book offers more than just crime: the characterisation is strong
and the relationships between the various family members and their
associates and enemies skilfully depicted. A particular treat for
anyone familiar with Yarmouth' East Anglian Daily Times 'Brett's

'The Godfather in Great Yarmouth' Ian Rankin 'An atmospheric and
riveting tale' Guardian * * * * * The Sun 'Harry Brett writes a fun
plot with witty elegance' The Times When local crime boss Richard
Goodwin is pulled from the river by his office it looks like
suicide. But as his widow Tatiana feared, Rich collected enemies
like poker chips, and half of Great Yarmouth's criminal fraternity
would have had reason to kill him. Realising how little she knows
about the man she married, Tatty seeks to uncover the truth about
Rich's death and take over the reins of the family business,
overseeing a waterfront casino deal Rich hoped would put Yarmouth
on the map. Out of the shadows at last, it is Tatty's time now, and
she isn't going to let Rich's brother, or anyone else, stand in her
way. But an American has been in town asking the right people the
wrong questions, more bodies turn up, along with a brutal new gang.
The stakes have never been higher. With her family to protect, and
a business to run, Tatty soon learns that power comes with a price

'Brilliant seaside noir, the action play[s] out at cracking pace in
the rough and seedy resort' Sunday Times Crime Club 'Be prepared to
immerse yourself in Great Yarmouth's murky underworld with this
great thriller' Five Stars, The Sun - 'Book of the Week' For the
first time in years, Tatiana Goodwin feels in control. She has
survived events which would make most people give up and go into
hiding. Yet Tati is still here, surrounded by her loyal family and
even daring to expand the Goodwin empire. But when her son Ben gets
kidnapped by a rival gang and the blame lies with her, the ghosts
of Tati's past catch up and she begins to crumble. Now, it is down
to the ever-loyal Frank to do everything he can to get Ben back and
keep the family together. Frank has been in this business for a
long time - he knows who to confide in and who will give up the
information he so desperately needs. But what he doesn't realise is
that there is a new threat in town, and all those old trusted
sources are answering to a different power. Tati needs to wake up
fast to the fact that it is not just their empire on the line -
their lives are at serious risk, and only a heartbreaking sacrifice
can save them. More praise for the series so far: 'The Godfather in
Great Yarmouth' Ian Rankin 'An atmospheric and riveting tale'
