Detective Sergeant Sean Delaney was not having the greatest time at the county force in Luton. When he is deployed to the Criminal Investigation agency to help fight crime bosses that had taken the town by storm, he hopes the “bigger role, bigger league” will give him a break from the norms and failures of his former local duties. But then, he has no idea how far from the truth this is. DCI Chief Inspector Simms is his first nightmare. A serial killer is on the loose and Simms wants Delaney to catch the perp. Simms also asks Delaney to “get in bed” with a crime boss’ wife, in the effort to bring down the crime syndicate that had infiltrated the town. As Delaney works his way around his new responsibilities, he quickly learns that Simms has a deep-seated animosity toward him, and is out to destroy him. As if this is not enough, he finds himself trapped in the middle of a silent but raging war, and he has to pick a side. Will it be the cops or will it be the filthy-rich goons terrorizing Luton? And is there an end to it? Find out in Eddie Heaton’s Luton Unveiled.

This page-turner will have you hooked and flipping from cover to cover. If you are looking for a gripping crime thriller laced with action, suspense, adventure, and so much more, Eddie Heaton’s Luton Unveiled is a must-read for you. Weaving an intriguing plot, Heaton features an exciting cast. The tone of the storyline, spell-binding cliffhangers, and sharp conversations had me on the edge of my seat, at the mercy of Heaton’s words. The evocative depictions colorfully bring the scenes to life, dropping me into the criminal underworld where betrayal, blackmail, murder, drug and sex trafficking, and retribution are the order of the day. And the price of loyalty, honor, and freedom can only be equaled to deceit, dirty money, and ruthless power. Heaton has a knack for making the scenes tremendously dramatic, giving the story a suspenseful backdrop. I would love to see Luton Unveiled on the big screen. It is a great piece of work and I loved it.
