Lady Dianna Scott Cartwright is dead on her bed with a hole in her forehead, the lady is fully dressed and now the late wife of Sir James Cartwright Diplomatic Ambassador to Honduras.

The body is inspected by Jack Hammond who is a detective in the Diplomatic Investigation Unit, an invisible unit responsible for the security and integrity of the government. His brief is simply to investigate misuse and serious corruption of power by serving politicians and if necessary is to proceed with extreme prejudice. The murder of the Lady leads Hammond into the murderous world of a “Snuff
Film” gang operation ran by two very senior politicians. This is later confirmed by the themes police in a news report that a number of bodies of homeless people were among those of young gay men floating in the Thames River with the same ligature markings and method of death.

Hammond finally uncovers the names of the politicians and sets out to “correct” the situation with his normal enthusiasm to do what the law wont. To Hammond the law is in the hands of the beholder….and as he is the beholder….his law is in his hands.

Read more about Jack Hammond and his methods and how he dispenses justice, justice the public need never concern themselves with.

THE KILLING ROOM

There comes a time in a man’s life when he has to stand up and be counted. Today that man is Jack Hammond of the Diplomatic Investigation Unit. Hammond is a detective that works purely in the interests of investigating politicians who may be acting against the public interests by bringing discontent and embarrassment to the government.

During his investigation into the murder of Lady Dianna Scott Cartwright, Hammond realises that there are many similarities between the ladies death, and the death of others, mainly homeless people, gay people and prostitutes who suffered and died in the most horrendous of circumstances.

As his investigation progresses, Hammond stumbles across a “snuff film” gang ran by two senior politicians, and after conferring with his seniors, Hammond is told to use his digression and to deal with the situation as he sees fit.

This Hammond does and although his methods are unorthodox they bring results.

Read all about how Hammond goes about this task and the deadly circumstances that arrive from his actions in…….book one…..

The Killing Room.

 Hi I'm John Madderson author of this blog. 

 

That's me on the right of the page promoting my book "The Killing Room" at the London book fair.

Anyway, getting to the point. I want to ask you a question.

Are you satisfied with the law?

Do you think todays laws fail to punish the offenders adequately?

Do you think the law is in the hands of mealy mouthed self serving clowns who live in gilded cages in the sky?

Well you are not alone.

 Jack Hammond of the Diplomatic Investigation Unit does not!

Jack Hammond is.....dare I say a "corrections officer" who punishes politicians when they break the law, the degree of punishment depends on the degree of the offence and if necessary, Jack is licensed to act with extreme prejudice. 

At the present time, Jack is investigating two senior  politicians suspected of running a "snuff film" gang when the body of Lady Dianna Scott Cartwright is found at her home. Her body showing the same method of death as in the three dead gay men floating in the Thames River.      

 You can read all about Jack Hammond and how he deals with the people involved.
