About

For fans of the hit show, Death in Paradise, comes the real story of a British detective fighting crime and uncovering mysteries in the Caribbean sun . . .

The Real Death in Paradise recounts the two years Inspector Richard Preston spent as one of twelve young police officers seconded to the seemingly idyllic Cayman Islands. Who wouldn't love the opportunity to work in a tropical paradise and immerse yourself in the local culture as you sunbathe on the sandy beaches and swim in the crystal clear waters? What could possibly go wrong . . . ?

When faced with the reality of police life in the Caribbean - including smuggling, rescuing turtles and mysterious murders - Richard soon found out that the truth was far more interesting than he ever could have imagined.

Follow Richard's adventures in this murderously enjoyable sun-kissed memoir Richard Preston is an ex-DCI who joined Greater Manchester Police as an operational officer in a busy semi-rural area in the Pennines. Richard then joined the CID and subsequently worked undercover in Manchester before being seconded for two years to the Royal Cayman Islands Police.

After returning to the UK and becoming an Inspector, Richard then became a Security Advisor to Counter Terrorism Policing in the North West of England. He currently works for the Red Cross and lives in Cheshire with his wife and children. For lovers of the BBC show comes the real life Death in Paradise... 8 million UK television viewers regularly tune into to the prime time BBC1 series Death in Paradise, and it is aired in over 250 territories worldwide.
