The Terry Sneed series launched G.F. Newman’s career in 1970. Sir, You Bastard introduced readers to a Scotland Yard detective who was thoroughly corrupt, taking bribes and running protection rackets while wearing a badge. The book became a bestseller and drew attention for how closely it mirrored real allegations of police corruption in London.

Two sequels followed, tracking Sneed through the 1970s as he navigated an increasingly dangerous double life. The trilogy remains one of the defining works of British crime fiction from that era.
