Billoughby- book 1
This is the first in the series i am working on. The tales are set in the early 1900’s and are centred around an Inspector and his family.
Billoughby had been used to a quiet village life. That was, until a dark and sombre tale reared its ugly head. The Inspector was soon to discover the secrets of a war long since forgotten, a private war that still burnt deep into this small community. The year is 1910. The quiet rural village in Kent, England is rocked by the murder of Craven Stanhope. Discovered in the graveyard of the local parish church. Could it be that the Reverend just might hold the biggest clue to unravel this mystery? They say diamonds are a girl’s best friend, its true to say they weren’t one man’s best friend. Family histories entwined over years are brought to light in the race to catch a killer. https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=Billoughby&i=stripbooks&dc&ref=a9_asc_1

Coming soon
Hi there, having bitten the bullet and published my first book I am now half way through writing a sequel to Billoughby- The long shadow. My aim is to let the reader get to know the family and friends of Inspector Billoughby. I have read many books in my time, my favourites being mystery/crime stories. My one bugbear with many is that i always want to learn more of the background of the characters. I hope to remedy this for like minded readers. The sequel, I hope, will be more polished in its delivery. As my first attempt had a few glitches, publishing glitches, I aim to go over the next with a fine tooth comb!
The sequel will still be based amongst the Kent countryside with the added hustle and bustle of an ever changing London. 1911 was a pivotal time for many associations and events in England. It was the start of the suffragette movement, without which many women would not be in the positions they are today. The coronation of a new King. The first outing of the Titanic. All things that shaped our lives in one way or another.
Stay tuned for more updates.
Thank you
D.M.Roberts.
