The second in the exciting Mark Noble space adventure series, Moonstruck was edited last week (the first novel of 2020!) and is now available for pre-order.
Moonstruck is the second of the Mark Noble space adventures. Reading Moonscape first is strongly advised.
After the frantic escape from the moon at the end of Moonscape, Mark has only just recovered when he discovers that the United States, together with the Chinese and Russians, are planning an invasion of Moonbase, and they want him to command it.
Penny, an old flame of Mark’s, is on the mission and this infuriates wife Linda, who has been grounded. Twenty-six others form the crew. Not only is it the biggest space expedition in history, but it also represents the most people ever to have been on the moon at the same time, and the most manned spacecraft in orbit too. Can Mark control the fourteen strong military contingent? As the story develops, he realises that he does not have as much authority as he believed.
Once again, Harmsworth has combined hard science fiction together with a fanciful, yet plausible story with totally convincing characters.
If Mark has international cooperation and support, how could anything go wrong? Surely a single offensive should be enough? No! The vicious mid-story plot-twist changes everything.
Find out what happens in Moonstruck—launch date 1st February 2020—available for pre-order now.

Another hilarious and quirky mystery from Zach J Brodsky.
Bob Lowe’s pipe dream to become a slick private investigator working the streets of Bangkok is becoming a reality; he’s fast becoming the go-to guy for bizarre cases.
When the police are suspicious about a series of expat deaths, they turn to Bob to do what he does best – go undercover with a drink in a bar. His translator, friend and investigative assistant Pat, continues to quietly prove the brains behind the organisation as Bob tries to solve a unique paternity test and help young go-go dancer Tum get his mojo back in the Bangkok nightlife scene.
Life is very much on an upward trajectory for the bumbling Brit and he even reveals his softer side as he looks to repair fading friendships. Another bizarre and quirky mystery with a large slice of humour and some heart-warming moments. The second in the Bob Lowe Investigation series.
Edited immediately prior to Christmas, the latest in the crime thriller series featuring Harry McNeil is now available.
A killer on the rampage. A detective standing in his way…
As a winter storm covers the city, the frozen corpse of a female is found inside a pile of snow outside Hector Mann’s house. There’s no identity on her, but Hector recognises her. She’s a woman from his past.
DCI Harry McNeil is called in with his team to start the investigation but right from the start, things don’t add up. Does Mann know more than he’s letting on?
DCI Jimmy Dunbar is sent through from Glasgow to join the investigation. They have a cold case murder from two years ago very similar to this one. Coincidence, or more? What is the connection between that murder and this one?
Harry is brought in for questioning by his old department, Professional Standards. His ex-girlfriend is being stalked and she’s pointing the finger at Harry. Suddenly things are not looking good for him.
Harry not only needs to track down a vicious serial killer but somebody who is intent on bringing him to his knees.
Can he catch a killer before his life is not only turned upside down, but ended? As time is running out, Harry is racing against the clock to stop one of the most frightening and lethal killers he’s ever dealt with.
Re-edited in November and relaunched as the first in the Harry McNeil crime series.
** DISCLAIMER – previously published as GOD COMPLEX. This novel has been re-written and re-branded to feature Harry McNeil as the main protagonist.

A woman is found in a local cemetery, crushed to death under a gravestone. A production company is there, filming the remake of a classic sci-fi TV show in the grounds, making the investigation more difficult for DCI Harry McNeil.
It’s his first day in charge of the cold case unit in Edinburgh. After spending four years in Professional Standards, he has little choice but to take the promotion. The Crown Office decides which cold cases should be reviewed, and this time, they’ve decided the murder of a teenage girl from twenty years ago should be re-opened. A girl who was murdered by somebody pushing a gravestone on top of her…
The case gets more complicated when they find out who the latest victim is. Suddenly there are no shortage of suspects.
As the filming continues, so does the killing. And McNeil wonders, has a killer been murdering for twenty years? Or is this case completely unconnected? With Frank Miller’s help, he’s going to find out…the hard way…
Another wonderful and humorous instalment in the Guesthouse on the Green series as Mammy and Moira travel Vietnam.
I love the series and can't wait for book four!
A quick but emotional read - reading about the cruelty to the dog was heartbreaking but this was a lovely tale of the love and healing that animals can bring to our lives.
I would have given five stars but for the missed typos - a few t...
I get the impression that this could be a nice story but I've had to give up after forcing myself to go as far as 15% of the way through. If this novel has ever been near a remotely professional editor then the author was conned.

Another very enjoyable story but with a few niggles, hence the four stars rather than five. Maybe it's because I was tired but the editing issues grated on me more than in the first story and, do people really generally believe that 'ear...
