Michael Terence Publishing Announces the Release of "Beggars Belief: Deadly Disguise and Web of Lies" by Tony Flood
Michael Terence Publishing is excited to announce the release of "Beggars Belief: Deadly Disguise and Web of Lies," a faced-paced whodunit, written by Tony Flood.
Oxford, United Kingdom, May 14, 2026 --(PR.com)-- About Beggars Belief
A gunman, disguised as a beggar, waits for financial wizard Timothy Marshall to leave his office, then kills him in cold blood.
At his side is his personal assistant, Vicky Appleby. Smart, determined, and just twenty-eight, she is devastated by the murder but resolves to help DCI Harvey Livermore track down the killer.
Suspects include: disgruntled clients, a furious husband, an ex-partner and an egotistical actor.
But did one of them pull the trigger, or did they hire someone else to do it?

About Tony Flood
Tony Flood spent most of his working life as a journalist, initially on local and regional papers and then on nationals. He was also editor of Football Monthly, Controller of Information at Sky Television and enjoyed a spell with The People before retiring in 2010.
He recalls: “My work as a showbiz and leisure writer, critic and editor saw me take on a variety of challenges - learning to dance with Strictly Come Dancing star Erin Boag, becoming a stand-up comedian and playing football with the late George Best and Bobby Moore in charity matches.
“Now I spend much of my time writing books, and theatre reviews and articles for online magazines Unknown Kent and Sussex and The Write Site. I recently retired from playing veterans football, having been one of the oldest - and slowest - players in the country!”
Tony's first book was fantasy adventure Secret Potion, which went to No. 1 in its Amazon category and has been recommended by other authors for Harry Potter fans of all ages.
His celebrity book, My Life With The Stars – Sizzling Secrets Spilled! is full of anecdotes and revelations about showbiz and sports personalities, including Eric Morecambe, Elvis Presley, Kylie Minogue, George Best, Frank Sinatra, Joan Collins, Strictly Come Dancing stars, Muhammad Ali and Bobby Moore, with whom Tony worked.
The versatile Mr Flood then turned to writing in another genre with spicy crime thriller Triple Tease, endorsed by best-selling writer Peter James, actor Brian Capron and The Sun newspaper's Stuart Pink.
Following the success of Triple Tease, Tony wrote Stitch Up! – Killer Or Victim? and Fall Guy.
In BEGGARS BELIEF compassionate copper DCI Harvey Livermore and his Major Crime Team are again trying to put a killer behind bars in a gripping, fast-moving story.
Tony has also co-written, with his wife Heather Flood, Laughs and Tears Galore – Stories and Poems With Twists!
