Though the Heavens May Fall by E V Thompson

Though the Heavens May Fall by E V Thompson

It is 1856. When three men are murdered in Cornwall, Amos Hawke, a Cornish detective working from London's Scotland Yard, is sent to investigate. He finds lodgings with one of the murdered men's wives - and her daughter, Talwyn. But while Amos's relationship with Talwyn gets off to a bad start, she is to prove crucial in helping him bring her father's killers to justice. A wonderful tale from a master storyteller, Though the Heavens May Fall has its heart and soul in the lore and landscape of Cornwall.

'[E V Thompson] finds top form with his latest dramatic tale.. remarkable, readable and believable' West Briton ** 'Ideally, you should read this, his thirty-third novel, and all the others, slowly, appreciatively, as if you are drinking a sophisticated claret ... Like Daphne du Maurier, he [Thompson] is a master of hooking his reader on the opening pages ... Another top-class literary cocktail ... a novel to savour' Cornish Guardian **

E V Thompson was born in London and spent nine years in the Navy before joining the Bristol police. He moved to Hong Kong, then Rhodesia and had over 200 stories published before returning to England to become a full-time award-winning writer. He now lives in Spain.
