Roderick Hayle-once a decorated Air Service captain, once a condemned killer-lives again as Silver Skull: a haunted avenger with a silver plate in his skull and a single mission to undo the crimes his darker self once enabled. In A Clue to the Copper, Richard Howells Watkins delivers a relentless, hardboiled noir of high-flying escapes, brutal underworld cleanups, and a hunt for the unseen mastermind known only as the Copper. From ruined airfields and storm-lashed islands to smoky tenements and shotgun-studded streets, Silver Skull tracks crooked pawnbrokers, corrupt fences, and the lethal Fingy Catlin-each clue dragging him closer to a voice on the telephone that owns a city's crime. Brilliantly paced and crackling with pulp-era atmosphere, Watkins blends aerial adventure, forensic cunning, and gritty detective work into a crime thriller that reads like a lost classic of pulp noir. For readers of classic mystery, noir detective fiction, and vintage crime thrillers, A Clue to the Copper is a must-read: a taut, atmospheric mystery series that restores honor to a broken man and delivers payback to the underworld.
