Produktbeschreibung

His dream was Eden Park - Number 10 jersey. His nightmare Mt Eden Prison - cell block 10 with a promising All Black rugby career shattered. A sentence of a life behind bars can do much to change a man's thinking. 'A grave miscarriage of justice,' were the words on the paper the Minister of Justice had handed to Terry Stamp when it was decided after fourteen years of incarceration he had not killed his wife. 'Go home, my man. Start your life again. You have plenty of good years remaining.' Yes, plenty of good years to control the bitterness filling his heart and driving him on in his personal quest for his wife's killer. He and Cavanagh had been married ten years when she was taken from him in a brutal attack by a spurned group of rugby supporters at a time Terry Stamp was a name on everyone's lips whenever All Black football was mentioned. It was a misinformed and foolish man who dared to say Terry wouldn't pull on the number 10 jersey the next time the All Blacks ran onto the field. It was inferred he might even lead them. Cavanagh's death changed everything and with the nation against him he was sent to prison. He was found unconscious and intoxicated in his smashed car close to where his wife had died. Her blood was on his clothes. Witness stated they had heard his words that day when he threatened to kill her. Five years of fruitless search has Terry accepting those responsible may never be brought to justice, but the double death of his closest friends in their home opens up an incredible line of inquiry. Ken and Jean Fraser died because it was thought they knew too much, but they died for what they didn't know. They knew nothing. Terry's quest carries him to the gates of Maidstone Prison in England to meet an unsavoury character who has first hand information on the killing of twenty years earlier. Paedophilic Elliott Page has personal knowledge of the men who raped and strangled Cavanagh Stamp, an act of lust, but also retribution for being punched out by Terry at an after match function on the night of the murder. Elliott Page has been blackmailing the killer with the intention of revealing all to a glossy weekly for a substantial sum. The killer is ready to pay and ready to kill again.

Autorenporträt

Roy Jenner is the author of fourteen novels such as this one. Each reflects his experiences as he travelled the world from his homeland of London England to eventually settle in the Antipodes and make Auckland New Zealand his home. Each page of each book is flavoured with the knowledge and understanding of life's experiences gleaned along the way. Three years service with Her Majesty's armed forces prepared him for life away from the docklands of London's East End, where he was born, to taste the arid and vital atmosphere of Egypt and its controversial Suez Canal Zone where he served two years on active service. Forty years in the meat industry were superseded by twenty years of equal success in the real estate sales. He was thrilled in later years to become involved with the magic of Nashville and Memphis Tennessee and venture into the challenges of the Australian Outback, being always pleased to return to the security of his home in New Zealand. A strong family man he has four sons, eight grandsons, three granddaughters and now five great grand children. He continues to write for your pleasure.
