A thrilling classic from a master of the genre.A thrilling classic from a master of the genre.In a wrecked Croat village, a mass grave is uncovered and the mutilated body of a young Englishwoman, Dorrie Mowat, is exhumed. Her mother, who loathed Dorrie in life, becomes obsessed by the need to find out about her death. But with civil war tearing apart the former Yugoslavia, none of the authorities there or in Britain are interested in a ‘minor’ war crime. So she turns to Bill Penn, private investigator, MI5 reject. For him this looks like a quick trip to safe Zagreb, the writing of a useless report and a good fee at the end of it. But once there he finds himself drawn inexorably towards the killing ground behind the lines, to find the truth of the young woman’s death and, perhaps, the truth of himself. Penn’s search for evidence that could, one day, convict a war criminal in a court of law becomes an epic journey into a merciless war where the odds are stacked high against himDorrie Mowat was a pig of girl. Mary Braddock, her mother, could tell you a horror story about Dorrie for every year of her life – until it ended, in a mass grave in Croatia.Now Mary Braddock cannot rest, cannot find peace until she knows why her daughter was killed with unspeakable cruelty; and who killed her…Bill Penn, ex-M15, goes to Zagreb to find the answers. To be paid well, to speak to the ministers and the diplomats and write a report. But Bill Penn finds he is following the life of someone Mary Braddock didn't know at all. A stranger, an Angel…And learning the truth of Dorrie Mowat becomes, for Bill Penn, the very essence of life, taking him into 'The Heart of Danger'…Brian Cox's reading takes the listener poignantly and horrifically into country where 20,000 people were killed in a few brief months of war; and into darker country inside their souls.
