About the Book

There was an air of anticipation in Keighworth Police Station, and a good deal of apprehension. It was time for a change and the station awaited its new head, Superintendent Arthur Donaldson. When he arrived they were all in for a shock and his arrival caused as much upset as if a hurricane had hit the place. He'd no experience in street crime for he'd specialised in office management and traffic control; so when he is confronted with the murder of two widows, he is completely thrown. They were the wives of a local very wealthy merchant banker, Robin Wilkins, quickly befriended by Donaldson when he arrived in Keighworth. Fortunately, he has veteran Detective Inspector Blake Hartley and the younger Detective Sergeant Ibrahim Khan at hand to help him. They are experienced police officers who solve both murders - and more - in a case which takes Sgt Khan to Pakistan and its wild tribal border with Afghanistan. Meanwhile, Inspector Hartley cracks an art forgery racket and discovers how the two widows died. Set in the Pennine country of West Yorkshire and Karachi and the borderlands of Pakistan, "The Merchant Bank Mystery" examines the current British banking underworld as part of the wider social scene.
About the Author: 82 year-old John Waddington-Feather resident in Shrewsbury U.K. for the past forty years is a popular British author who belongs to the West Yorkshire 'school' of writers. His children's novel, Quill's Adventures in Grozzieland, was nominated for the Carnegie Medal in 1989, and his widely produced verse-play, Garlic Lane, (now on Kindle) won the Burton Award in 1999 and was staged in London in 2011 at the Rosemary Branch Theatre, Islington. In 2002 he was awarded the American DeWitt Romig Prize for his poetry. He was the first chairman of the J.B.Priestley Society and is now a vice-president. In 1985 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. A school-teacher all his life, he is also an Anglican non-stipendiary priest and was a volunteer chaplain in Shrewsbury Prison from 1969 to 2009, going into prison the odd night after school and helping in the chapel at weekends. From his forty years as prison chaplain he has much material to draw on for his Blake Hartley crime novels! The Quill Hedgehog novels are a series of novels age-range from 10 to 100! The first, Quill's Adventures in the Great Beyond, was written in the 1970s as a protest against the pollution and urbanisation of the countryside. The third Quill Hedgehog novel, Quill's Adventures in Grozzieland, was nominated for the Carnegie Medal by the Library Association of Great Britain. The first three novels now on Kindle have gone into three editions. A worthwhile read for children and adults alike. Since being placed on Kindle, his wide range of work has sprung to prominence and attracted a growing number of readers in many countries including the USA which he visited often; more recently in translation in mainland Europe where his short stories are used by the British Council in their BritLit educational scheme to promote contemporary British writing abroad. His very popular Blake Hartley crime novels are now published by Kindle as e-books and more of his work, including his drama, Quill Hedgehog novels and ghost stories, will appear on Kindle in the future. Over 80,000 of his works including his romantic trilogy 'Chance Child', have already been sold on Kindle. Amazon has constructed a website for his bio and work at http: //www.amazon.co.uk/John-Waddington-Feather/e/B000API8M2
