The latest addition to Sarah Hawkswood’s Bradeco

The latest addition to Sarah Hawkswood’s Bradecote and Catchpoll series is here! 🤩

Too Good to Hang transports the reader to April, 1145. Thorgar the Ploughman is found by the bloodied body of Father Edmund, a village priest in Ripple, and is summarily hanged for being caught in the act, despite his pleas of innocence.

When his sister goes to Worcester to seek justice for Thorgar, the lord Sheriff sends Hugh Bradecote, with Serjeant Catchpoll and Underserjeant Walkelin, to discover the truth. They soon expose strong motives for placing the blame on the ploughman’s shoulders, some unpleasant secrets festering among the villagers, as well as the whisper of a treasure long lost and now rediscovered.

The shadow the noose casts is a long one, but the Sherrif’s men will need to plumb the darkness to uncover the true killer.

The Camden Murder by Mike Hollow is now available

The Camden Murder by Mike Hollow is now available in paperback!

November 1940. As dawn begins to break, blackout regulations are rendered pointless by a car burning fiercely near the Regent’s Canal in Camden Town, north London. In the burnt-out vehicle police find the charred remains of a body. The victim is Les Latham, a commercial traveller for the Baring and Sons confectionery company. He liked to be known as Lucky Les, but it seems his luck has finally run out.

Detective Inspector John Jago discovers a mysterious photograph and some suspicious-looking petrol ration books among Latham’s belongings. These lead him off on a murky trail of deceit, corruption and murder. It seems that the Blitz Detective will have to make his own luck to bring to light an unexpected killer.

Hollywood loves a dead girl. She’s always so

Hollywood loves a dead girl.

She’s always so photogenic. 📸🌴🎬
 Salma Lowe is the offspring of Hollywood royalty and a former child-star turned guide on a true crime bus tour. She understands better than anyone how Hollywood chews up and spits out starlets. Her own sister, Tawney, dubbed the ‘Hurricane Blonde’, was murdered in the mid-‘90s, and the case remains unsolved. Salma herself has sworn off acting and just hopes to stay sober and out of trouble, until she discovers another dead woman with an uncanny resemblance to Tawney on the very property where her sister once lived and died.  Salma has to face the fact that a killer has struck again and with the police investigation going nowhere, she needs to plunge herself back into Los Angeles’ seductive allure to find the culprit. But the search for the truth will take her deep into the rotten heart of Hollywood past and present, and into her family’s dark secrets.

The Hurricane Blonde by Halley Sutton will be hitting your bookshelves this summer. Pre-order now via the links in our bio!

PS. We are looking for Hollywood-loving bloggers to take part in our social media campaign, DM us if you are interested ✉
