Soft in the Middle by Philip Watson

Soft in the Middle by Philip Watson

In 1910 Chief Inspector Walter Dew became the most famous detective in the world after a transatlantic chase resulted in him capturing the American murderer Dr Hawley Harvey Crippen. This was the first time that wireless telegraphy had resulted in the arrest of a murderer and it was Dew's final investigation for Scotland Yard. After retiring from the Metropolitan Police and working as a private detective Dew began to write and in 1938 his autobiography I CAUGHT CRIPEN was published. It subsequently became an important work for crime historians and has long been out-of-print. Dew's accounts of the Crippen case and his futile hunt for Jack the Ripper are the lengthiest ever written by a police officer closely involved in the investigations. The latter part of I CAUGHT CRIPEN deals with a variety of other cases that Dew worked on, including the arrest of the international jewel thief Harry the Valet. THE ANOTATED I CAUGHT CRIPEN makes this classic work available again. It contains a full transcription of the original text, annotated with footnotes including additional material from a newspaper serialisation of Dew's memoirs that has never appeared in a book before. It also features appendices of Dew's other writings and articles written about the celebrated detective during his lifetime.

Philip's passion is discipleship. A passion that people become disciples of Jesus and that they become, informed and effective disciples of Jesus. He began writing in 1986. His first book was a discipleship manual which covered 113 topics and included 1,500 verses from the Bible. Philip brings to his writing: A wide knowledge of the content of the Bible (a result of writing the discipleship manual) A Theological education. A book, soon to be published that makes the case, that God is our creator. A knowledge of the archaeology, that supports the stories we find in the Bible. Perspectives, from several trips to Israel. Strengths: In his writing, Philip combines the strengths of story telling and Bible teaching. He has an ability to analyse the faith and succinctly summarise the message of the Bible. Philip has had the privilege of being married to Dianne for over 38 years and they have three adult children. Philip and Dianne live in Auckland, New Zealand.
