Inconvenient Corpse

A top London villain like Georgie Parks had no business getting himself murdered in the sleepy village of Cookstone. There was no proper hospital, only a small police unit, and a general lack of facilities. It was nothing short of inconsiderate of Georgie, in local Superintendent Michael Brent's opinion. Chief Inspector 'Actor' Sam Hudson of Scotland Yard's Serious Crimes Squad took a different view. The murder provided him with an opportunity to stir up trouble between rival gangs, and he seized it. Notorious Blackie Webber was quickly involved, and so was stolen jewellery, plus a mysterious connection with the Arena, an expensive gay bar.
