Stark Realities: An Adam Stark Novel - Paperback

by Peter Carroll (Author)

The body of a young girl has been washed up on the shores of the River Forth near Alloa. At first, it seems like a tragic suicide. However, as DI Adam Stark and his team start to investigate, things appear to be less clear-cut. Links to an influential local family, Stark's old adversaries the McDuffs, a semi-professional footballer, and the loner who discovered her body, slowly begin to weave together, forming a different story. Something dark lurks in their shared past. Meanwhile, Stark's own past is taking its toll. He's going through a bit of a crisis. Loneliness and self-doubt are gnawing at him. He doesn't realise it yet but these feelings will soon pale as the case heads towards a shocking conclusion.

Author Biography

Biography Peter is a Scottish person who's nearer fifty than forty now and has no idea how that happened! He's been married for a long time and has one daughter. When finances and time permit, he travels the world in search of birds and other wildlife and is a committed conservationist. As a self-taught bassist, saying he's a musician may be stretching it, but he has a go now and again. Literary influences include Christopher Brookmyre, Stephen King and Irvine Welsh, so expect bad language, violence, black humour and significantly fewer adverbs than most...oh... So far, he has six novels published. You can connect with Peter on his website at www.petercarroll.ravencrestbooks.com Twitter @PeterCarroll10 and Facebook at www.facebook.com/PCNovel1
