It is 1984. Cumbrian detective DI Sam Tognarelli is facing problems at work and a looming crisis at home. As he struggles with difficult decisions three things happen: a burglar dies in the home of a well-known local man, the body of a baby is discovered on the tip, and his wife Judith gets a threatening letters first at work and then, more worryingly, at home. Is there a connection? ‘Corruption’ is the latest in a series which began with the dramatic life of Judith’s grandmother Jessie Whelan and follows the family of Judith’s relationship with Sam and his police work in West Cumbria. Interwoven characters and a fascinating setting connect the stories, drawing the reader into this remarkable corner of north-west England in the twentieth century.
