Riassunto

The Ironbridge Hoard A 1940's Mystery revisited Discharged from the Army, Jack returns to the claustrophobic confines of the Ironbridge Gorge. He is a railwayman, a fisherman and a gifted storyteller. He is liked by the men of the Bridge and fancied by many of the women. Jack has played the field since the death of his wife. He believed he was discrete but the Bridge was watching. Jack’s friendship with June, China’s wife, attracted speculation. Knowing looks progressed to malicious gossip when China disappeared. Jack and Nipper, his Jack Russell cross, discover a hoard Roman coins during a fishing trip with Jack’s best mates Bill and George. From this high point Jack’s simple life begins to unravel, as he is forced to make difficult choices between his lifelong friends, his mysterious lodger, his estranged son, the hoard and the women in his life. Jack reaches breaking point when China’s body is discovered and the finger of suspicion begins to point in his direction. Today John, a discarded executive, meets Joan the aging widow of Jack’s son Tom. They team up as the odd couple to solve the mystery of the Ironbridge Hoard.
