A man’s past condemned him. But who delivered the sentence?
Clive Palmer’s dark history followed him long after his release from prison. A disgraced history teacher, he sought refuge in a quiet Wiltshire village, hoping to leave his mistakes behind. Ten months later, he was found stabbed and mutilated—a crime as chilling as the secrets he tried to escape.
Detective Gus Freeman and his Crime Review Team specialise in uncovering long-buried truths, but Palmer’s murder is unlike anything they’ve faced before. As they delve into his tainted past, they unravel a web of grudges, betrayals and unanswered questions. Each discovery brings them closer to a truth more unsettling than the crime itself.
Did Clive Palmer’s past seal his fate, or is his murder hiding an even darker story?
Tame the Storm is a gripping cold-case thriller that explores the blurred lines between justice, vengeance, and redemption.

Ted Tayler is the international best-selling indie author of the Freeman Files and Phoenix series. Ted lives in the English West country, where his stories are based. He was born in 1945 and has been married to Lynne since 1971. They have three children and four grandchildren. His thought-provoking mysteries appeal to readers of Sally Rigby, Joy Ellis, Pauline Rowson, and Faith Martin. His action-packed thrillers are a must for fans of Mark Dawson and J C Ryan. Gus Freeman’s cold case investigations are carried out with reasoned deduction rather than bursts of frantic action. In each of the 24 books, unsolved murders are accompanied by romance, humour, and country life. The core message in the 12 Phoenix novels is that criminals should pay for their crimes. Unfortunately, the current system fails to deliver the correct punishment, so Phoenix helps redress the balance.
