The Blood-Dimmed Tide written by Rennie Airth performed by Nathaniel Parker on Cassette (Abridged)

It is 1932 and John Madden, former Scotland Yard Inspector, is now a farmer in the peaceful Surrey countryside. Peaceful, that is, until he discovers the mutilated body of a small girl hidden in a wood. Uneasy about the police enquiries he quietly begins his own investigation.

And it is an investigation that will involve not only Scotland Yard but also the world of secret agents - and the German police. The investigation leads to Germany - where the Nazi's are on the brink of power. And the mutilated bodies the killer has left in his wake are just a shocking foretaste of the horrors to come . . .
