A quirk and entertaining novel.

 

When an egotistical dog decides to be a hero, he messes up relationships, creates angry enemies, and panics the U.S. government.

In a shabby house in Ohio, a Schnauzer named Whiskers listens to tales of heroes and imagines that he could be one. Then fate intervenes and forces him to leave home.

In his travels, the spunky pooch rescues dogs and people, but his big ego strains friendships and gets him on the wrong side of dangerous individuals.

Saving himself becomes a top priority, including running from hungry hillbillies, matching wits with a merciless pile of manure, and staying ahead of the human federal agency that wants to arrest him.

But the day is coming when Whiskers will meet his greatest challenge. The fate of a panic-stricken America will hang in the balance, and so will Whiskers’ chance of ever finding a new home.

The fourth novel in this superbly intricate murder mystery series.

 

A ruthless murder. A hint of the occult. A serial killer on the loose.

Three months have passed since tragedy made another strike against the Lancefields. And with a dangerous killer still on the loose, DCI Ennor Price is facing an ignominious end to his otherwise unblemished career.

Three hundred miles away in London’s exclusive Canary Wharf Estate, a young woman’s body is found floating in the murky waters of the West India Dock. It looks to DCI Chris Greenway like an opportunistic mugging – except for the tawdry and curious collection of objects that had been draped around her neck.

When Greenway’s investigation leads him to DCI Price’s door, Price feels his blood run cold: the victim had connections to both the Lancefield family and the ruthless killer. And when another Lancefield cousin steps unexpectedly out of the wings to present himself to the family, the detective can only fear the worst.

Will Price succeed in capturing his elusive nemesis? Or is history is about to repeat itself in the worst of all possible ways?

A threatening letter is sent to a Cornish news website, warning that a dead body has been hidden at a remote clifftop location.

When Detective Inspector Zennor races to the scene, she discovers that the victim is still alive – but barely. Journalist Jason Blake has been beaten and left to die in the elements of the wild Atlantic coast. The man has a checkered past… could it be that an old score is being settled?

The news comes just as DI Zennor, Cartwright, and Boswell are ready to make a breakthrough in the human trafficking case – forcing them to divert their time and attention elsewhere. DI Zennor is frustrated, Cartwright is almost mutinous… but neither one will back down.

The furious attack on the coast seems motivated by revenge, so the culprit is bound to strike again…
And when they do someone will almost certainly die.

As they try to identify their prime suspect, Cartwright’s secret entanglements drag him back to the trafficking case at the worst possible time.

Will his costly mistakes cause a colleague to lose their life?

In The Silent Plea DI Verity Zennor must fight hard to catch a killer-in-waiting, keep her team together, and dig deeper into the trafficking case before the NCA makes things worse for everyone.

And as Cartwright’s personal affairs spiral, Zennor begins to see another side of Inspector Bligh – one she is starting to like…
