Dan Calder is back.

​

Back in his native England once again; to help his best friend and ex-partner Nick Hetherington. Nick’s daughter has been arrested in connection with the death of a Nottingham prostitute.

​

Back to face his darkest moment; as old acquaintances and old enemies set his cupboard full of skeletons rattling once more. ‘The Second Grave’ has Calder facing the battle of his life to fulfil a solemn promise to his dearest friend.

​

New foes including a local gangster are prepared to do anything to prevent the truth being revealed. Left at home in New Zealand, Calder’s girlfriend Tara senses he also views this return as an opportunity to settle old scores.

Time and the odds are against him; incredibly so too the upholders of law itself, his beloved police force.

​

Rushing headlong towards the past; whoever coined the phrase you couldn’t even make this stuff up was very wrong.
