The Coopers Field Murder by Wonny Lea
The first novel in this series, Jack-Knifed, saw the introduction of Detective Chief Inspector Martin Phelps, together with his sidekick, Detective Sergeant Matt Pryor, and their team, investigating the horrendous murder of a gay man in Cardiff. Now they are faced with a body found in Coopers Field, a Cardiff beauty spot - a naked body that has lain there so long it is almost unidentifiable. Pathology reports establish that the body is that of a woman - but who is she, and how did she die? Local nurse Sarah Thomas, a helpful passer-by when the body is found, soon finds that she has another unexpected death to deal with - at Parkland Nursing Home where she works. Colin James, one of her favourite residents at the home, dies suddenly - but the reactions of those closest to him are surprising. Was Colin's death due to natural causes - or is there something more sinister afoot at Parkland? The Coopers Field Murder is the second in Wonny Lea's DCI Martin Phelps series, set in the thriving Welsh capital city of Cardiff.
Wonny Lea’s career as a nurse started in the ‘Swinging Sixties’ and she went on to become a midwife, managing breech deliveries, twins, and various other complications without an obstetrician in sight and loving every minute of it. After her marriage, and with a young family, she changed direction professionally, variously managing her own florists, working in the tourist trade, and running a pub. She also worked on and off for the NHS and worked her way up to the position of Chief Nurse at one of the largest NHS Trusts in the UK before retiring. Wonny Lea lives near Cardiff in Wales and is a passionate Welshwoman. Her Cardiff Bay Investigation series of detective novels featuring DCI Martin Phelps is set in the Welsh capital and features the darker – and lighter – sides of life in one of Europe’s most vibrant cities.
