The Tufton Street Series

The series begins with 'The Death of a Smoker'.

Is a Cambridge Science Park company collaborating with a Soviet germ warfare agency? Why have they imported a potential bioweapon virus?

Described as 'an intellectual cat-and-mouse game, layered upon the proclivities of British scientists, spies, and spy masters'.

'Unsavoury Business' sees Harry Nevile and his team facing a new bioweapon threat, but is a virus that kills only 10% of infected people really a threat? 'Tantalising the most clued up fans of the genre.'

'Imperfectly Innocent".

Once suspicion is woken from its slumbers and raises its head, it never sleeps again.
