Synopsis

This, the opening novel in Dylan H Jones’ DI Tudor Manx series is a gritty, atmospheric tale of murder, betrayal and revenge.

Recently transferred from the London Met to the North Wales Constabulary, DI Tudor Manx has returned to his native island of Anglesey, hoping for a quiet life. But his hopes are dashed when a brutally mutilated body is found nailed to the bow of a fishing boat, sending shockwaves through the peaceful community.

Is the body a message, a warning of more murders to come?

Manx is under pressure to solve the case quickly. But his team is inexperienced, and Manx is distracted by his own troubled past. In particular, he is haunted by a cold case: the disappearance of his sister, Miriam.

Can Manx solve the case before the body count rises? And how will he cope when he is forced to choose between his family and his duty as a police officer?

Anglesey Blue is a gritty tale of murder, with vividly-drawn and memorable characters who populate a stunning backdrop. It is perfect for fans of police procedurals and Scandi/Scottish noir.

Praise for Anglesey Blue:

ʻAs a character, Manx grew on me so much so that by the end of the book I felt I could happily go for a drink with him. I love it when an author creates a warts and all character that seeps into your blood and, in Tudor Manx, Jones has done just that. A highly recommended read!’ – The Crime Warp

‘… an entertaining read, with the promise of more to come.’ – Booker Talk

‘There are many crime novels out there to choose from but miss Anglesey Blue at your peril, it’s a gem.’ - Grab This Book

Dylan H. Jones was born on Anglesey and now lives in Oakland, California. Anglesey Blue is the first in a series of crime novels featuring the sardonic, sharp-witted but troubled detective, Detective Inspector Tudor Manx. It was longlisted for the Guardian’s prestigious readers’ choice award, Not the Booker Prize.
