THE PALMER CASES BACKGROUND Justin Palmer started off on the beat as a London policeman in the 1974 and is now Detective Chief Superintendent Palmer running the Serial Murder Squad from New Scotland Yard. Not one to pull punches, or give a hoot for political correctness if it hinders his enquiries, Palmer has gone as far as he will go in the Met. And he knows it. Master of the one line put down and slave to his sciatica he can be as nasty or as nice as he likes. The mid 1990’s was a time of reawakening for Palmer as the Information technology revolution turned forensic science, communication and information gathering skills upside down. Realising the value of this revolution to crime solving, Palmer co-opted Detective Sergeant Gheeta Singh, a British Asian onto his team. DS Singh has a degree in IT and was given the go-ahead to update Palmer’s department with all the computer hard and software she wanted. Most of which she wrote herself, and some of which is, shall we say, of a grey area when it comes to privacy laws and accessing certain databases! Together with their small team of officers and one civilian computer clerk called Claire and nicknamed ‘JCB’ by the team , because she keeps on digging, they take on the serial killers of the UK. On the personal front, Palmer has been married to his ‘princess', or Mrs P. as she is known to everybody, for nearly thirty years. The romance blossomed after the young DC Palmer arrested most of her family who were a bunch of South London petty villains in the 60’s. They have four children and eight grandchildren, a nice house in Dulwich and a faithful dog called Daisy. Gheeta Singh lives alone in a fourth-floor Barbican apartment having arrived on these shores as part of a refugee family fleeing from Idi Amin’s Uganda. Her father and brothers have built up a good computer parts supply company in which it was assumed Gheeta would take an active role on graduating from University. She had other ideas on this, and also on the arranged marriage her mother and aunts still try to coerce her into. Gheeta has two loves, police work and technology, and thanks to Palmer she has her dream job. Combining the old ‘coppers nose’ and ‘gut feelings’ of Palmer with the modern IT skills of DS Singh the two make an unlikely, but successful team. All their cases involve multiple killings and twist and turn through red herrings and hidden clues alike keeping the reader in suspense until the very end.Other books in the Superintendent Palmer series are available through Amazon as downloads for Kindle, tablet, Ipad or PC and in paperback.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

B.L.Faulkner was born into a family of petty criminals in South London and although he didn't pursue that career path himself his novels have an air of authenticity gained from spending his youth around the 'geezers' of the 1950-70s and their various escapades. Faulkner started off as a copywriter in an advertising agency in Paddington and got lucky with some material submitted on spec to the BBC which led to a career as scriptwriter and editor for both BBC and independent TV companies. Many hours in hotel rooms whilst working on programmes throughout the UK gave Faulkner time to fill notebooks with Palmer cases. Now he has the time to sort out the notes and write the books. Six done and more coming! He hopes you enjoy them as much as he in writing them.
