FORTY years ago, Darlington’s mayor was a man who had profited from a life of crime: he was Bill Newton who wrote 125 thrillers, featuring heroic cops like Joey Binns and Miles Dresser, which had been translated into 13 different languages. Indeed, in the early years of his career, one of his stories was considered too racy for America where it was banned by magistrates and his publishers were ordered to pulp 1,200 copies. And his year wearing the golden chains of office began when he published his 84th novel, The Way to Get Dead. It was, said the Evening Despatch newspaper, “a pacey tale of crime and killing from the Darlington mayor, including a fair dollop of sex”, and the front cover featured a dead young lady in a brassiere.
