Judokill

Sensei Akeni is whistling when he strolls into a local bank to make a deposit, unaware that just seconds later he will be lying unconscious, the victim of a violent robbery. After he is questioned by the police and released from the hospital, the sensei of the town's popular judo club returns home, only to be murdered as soon as he hangs up his coat. After officers Bill and Smithy are assigned to the investigation, they soon discover there are few clues to go on and that the town is being infiltrated by powerful criminal elements. Corruption has reached deep into the town, and it appears that no one, including the police and judo club, is immune from the tendrils of a wayward lord, a London gang, and a Chinese triad. While danger lurks in the back alleys and a notorious coffee bar, the two cops, aided by a feisty retired schoolmarm and a laidback MI5 agent, must face down the powerful aristocratic and criminal forces. But will they be able to save the town-and the county-before it is too late? In this exciting prequel to the Chaos Factor, two young policemen in a sleepy market town launch a murder investigation that propels them down a dark path they never expected.
