Murder on a secluded farm outside the village of San Pablo de Buceite, in Cádiz province, thrusts DI Leon Prado, a seasoned detective, and his trusty translator Phillip Armitage into a chilling old mystery buried deep within the wartime tunnels of Gibraltar with the potential to shake the foundations of the Rock’s sovereignty.
Since Britain’s departure from the EU, Gibraltar’s citizens have been anxiously awaiting the outcome of post-Brexit negotiations that could drastically alter their lives. Years of ongoing talks and missed deadlines have only heightened the tension. Another key decision is imminent.
Unwanted investigations by the Spanish police at such a sensitive time set sparks flying at the highest levels, and they hit dead ends everywhere they turn. Someone is deliberately sabotaging their efforts, burying old secrets that could wreak havoc on current affairs. As Prado and Armitage edge closer to the truth, the investigation takes a personal and dangerous turn.
Darkness in Gibraltar is the sixth instalment in Paul S Bradley’s award-winning Andalusian Mystery Series. A collection of gripping whodunits set in Southern Spain’s rich and diverse autonomous community.
