Charles Otterbourne’s New Century company should have been the perfect partner for Professor Alan Carrington’s radical new gramophone. After all, Charles Otterbourne was not only a leading manufacturer but a public figure, noted for his good works and philanthropy. Too good, perhaps, to be true?
Did Alan Carrington discover Charles Otterbourne’s secret or was there another explanation for what happened at that meeting? And how did it lead to murder in a London hotel?
In a desperate bid to save a man from the gallows, Jack Haldean takes up the case. But has he saved the wrong man? The answer is Off The Record…

A hundred thousand dragons lie, underneath an Arabian sky.
Adler Madison wrote those words and left them in a book in the Savoy. Poetry? Perhaps, but what are the dragons? And who was Adler Madison?
The answer threatens to tear Jack Haldean apart. How does a chance encounter in a London hotel, a death in Sussex, and few lines of poetry lead to a lost city of Arabia, to the tombs of the Whispering Dead?
Jack has evaded the truth for years but now, enmeshed in the web of murder, theft and deception, he must find the answer and face up to the truth – a truth as deadly as any dragon.
