Edited in September 2022, this is the second in the thought-provoking Lancefield mystery series. Another compelling page-turner.

The Lancefields of Salvation Hall built their wealth on the misery and misfortune of others, and being connected to them – however distant the connection – is proving to be a dangerous occupation.

Six weeks on from the murder of the late and unlamented Lucy Lancefield, heiress to the extensive Lancefield fortunes, DCI Ennor Price finds himself knee-deep in a hate campaign against Lucy’s grieving family. Dealing with vindictive threats is one thing, but when death unexpectedly rears its head four hundred miles away on Merseyside, Price can’t help feeling that someone just walked over his grave.

The fatal road traffic accident outside Liverpool’s Lime Street Station looks like just another routine investigation for DS Kate Jenkins until a search of the victim’s pockets turns up a letter from Lucy’s grandfather. Kate believes that the death was something far more sinister than an accident and when news of it reaches DCI Price, he is only too ready to agree with her.

In fact, Price is convinced that the Liverpool accident was nothing short of cold-blooded murder. But how can he prove his case from four hundred miles away in Penzance? And what can he do to stop the killer from striking at the Lancefields again?

Edited in August 2022, this is the second instalment in the latest thrilling DI Hogarth Series.

A man dies in a remote boatyard. He is stabbed in the back, abandoned with few clues left as to the motive for his brutal murder. The cluster of wounds around the heart suggests a professional execution. Hogarth must decipher the crime before a vicious murder becomes something far, far worse.

Larry Spellman was a reformed man. Convicted in his youth, he had spent the last twenty years walking the straight and narrow. He was a family man with two children. When he died, his savings account was empty. Hogarth and the team must dig into a murky past to see the truth behind Spellman’s last few weeks on Earth.

Unless Detective Inspector Joe Hogarth and DS Palmer can solve the mystery, they will never be able to prevent the far darker crime that is about to unfold.

A plot is in the offing.
Witnesses are few.
And more blood will soon be shed…

Meanwhile, Sue Palmer is getting sucked deep into a dangerous quagmire, one she cannot escape.
Temptation plays a hand – and the cards are rigged against her in a game she cannot win…

Edited in July 2022, this is the first in the new, gripping DI Hogarth series. Another thrilling page-turner from Solomon.

 

A local campaigner is found dead in the garden of an infamous house. Among the clues Detective Inspector Joe Hogarth finds a clear attempt to throw the police off the scent. Someone is determined to keep them from the truth behind a vicious murder, but who?

Penny Wharton was murdered in the wild garden of a derelict house – the house that had become a symbol of her campaign to save the victims of Storm Archie. Wharton had spent her life whipping up a storm to bring justice. But in the end she was the one struck down.
The motive for Miss Wharton’s murder seems straightforward, but there are many players in this game, and everyone has something at stake.

Meanwhile, Detective Sergeant Sue Palmer has a serious problem with local gangster Alex Galvan Galvan wants a pound of Palmer’s flesh, and he will stop at nothing to get it.

Fighting against a rising tide of pressure, greed, and corruption, Detectives Palmer and Hogarth are in danger of going under… and losing everything they hold dear.

Their integrity. Their careers. Their lives.
