The Wave Maker by Solomon Carter (Kindle eBook)
Amazon £0
A body on the beach. A detective out of his depth.
When the tide washes a teenager’s body onto Clacton’s shore, DI Joe Hogarth wants to keep his head down. Southend kicked him out, and this quiet seaside town was meant to be his exile.
But the case drags him back into the darkness he thought he’d escaped — where dirty money flows, secrets rot, and a disgraced MP hides the truth behind a perfect smile. And at the heart of it all is a name Hogarth hoped he’d never hear again…
A ruthless gangster.
A ghost from his past.
A reckoning that could destroy him.
Now Hogarth must decide how far he’s willing to go for justice — because in these waters, even a good detective can drown.
Perfect for fans of Ian Rankin, Mark Billingham, and Peter James, The Wave Maker is a gripping British crime thriller packed with twists, atmosphere, and a detective who won’t quit — no matter the cost.
