Having spent fifteen months convalescing after being hit on the head with an adjustable spanner, Cliff Summers returns to his home town with no job, no prospects and no memory at all of the day he was assaulted. Also returning, after fifteen months spent in prison for his criminal assault on Cliff, is Tony Clayton. Cliff has no intention of trying to recall exactly what happened that day until Clayton himself approaches Cliff for help. Clayton's wife is missing, and he is convinced that Cliff - if only he could remember - would know why. As a Social Security Inspector, which he was until his injury, Cliff had access to the financial records, and secrets, of many people in the town. With the help of pretty Nicola Waldron who now does the job he used to do, Cliff reluctantly sets about trying to reconstruct that vital day. But each fact he uncovers seems directly - and often horrifyingly - at variance with what Cliff knows of his own habits and principles: as he slowly pieces the facts together, the jigsaw-picture of himself that seems to be emerging is one he does not recognize at all. Something terrible happened the day he was assaulted, and as one murder after another is revealed, Cliff cannot be sure how deeply he was involved. But one thing seems to be certain if he remembers too much, his life could be in danger. And Nicola's as well. This is Roger Ormerod's fifth exciting and complex thriller published by Constable. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Satisfaction Guaranteed. Richard Patton, an ex-detective inspector enjoying early retirement, is asked by his wife's old college friend, a successful novelist, to investigate unofficially a suspected burglary at her house overlooking the Norfolk Broads. Although the place is full of treasures, apparently there has been nothing stolen; no sign of fingerprints or footprints, just a broken roof tile and, Raffles-like, three telltale bags of Earl Grey tea. Yet Patton, digging deeper, soon discovers evidence of an apparent murder, a young woman's drowning which has been officially accepted as accidental. At this point, Richard finds his loyalties severely strained, and as his investigation progresses, he unearths a background of family strife sufficiently emotional to have provoked violence. But it is still unclear how the dead young woman could have been the victim. In pursuit of this conundrum, Richard traces the linking motivation, but, if he takes the matter further, he will provoke a situation in which the loyalties involved even come between himself and his wife. Reluctantly he withdraws, only to learn that another death has occurred. Realizing he might have prevented this second fatality, he returns to a final, angry and dramatic interrogation, which ultimately reveals the truth. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
