Operation WetFish Book 3: The Hunt for Charles Baronaire

Police incompetency, witness intimidation, expensive lawyers. There are many reasons the guilty walk free of court. For Operation WetFish, a legal and entirely unorthodox department of the London police, the courts never have the final say. Frame-ups, alerting rival gangs or simply making the bad guys disappear . . . Operation WetFish employs a variety of methods to clean up the mistakes of the courts. Charles Baronaire lives for the thrill of making the streets safe. But Baronaire has other things on his mind. He’s stronger, faster, more agile than ordinary human beings; he can focus his mind to alter people’s perceptions, can establish command over nature’s baser creatures. And he has an insatiable appetite for human blood. Charles Baronaire is dead, killed by his partner’s incompetence. As Detective Jen Thompson drowns her sorrows in whiskey, an investigation is set underway by Jeremiah and Detective Foster which reveals the death of Baronaire may not have been quite as it seemed. As Thompson struggles with the constant failure of her life choices, she realises she is the only chance Baronaire has of rescue. But it’s a long climb out of the bottle for her, and there are far too many ghosts to exorcise before she’s any good to anyone.
