The murder of a promising footballer, son of Brighton’s highest-ranking police officer, means Detective Superintendent Jo Howe has a complicated and sensitive case on her hands. The situation becomes yet more desperate following devastating blackmail threats.

'⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Two slow burn romances, lives saved, lots of crossed wires and a race against the elements. I absolutely loved this book and was left wanting more' Amazon Reviewer⁠
⁠
Kingscastle by Sophia Holloway is our June Ebook of the month, get it now via the link in our bio, only 99p for a few more days 😍⁠
⁠
It is a truth universally acknowledged that love is never smooth sailing. ⛵⁠
⁠
Captain William Hawksmoor of the Royal Navy never expected to inherit Kingscastle, his family's estate, and finds himself all at sea when he does so. Especially when he learns that he must marry within a year or be forever dealing with trustees.⁠
⁠
As the new Marquis of Athelney, the captain takes command of Kingscastle and discovers much to be done to set it in order. He must also contend with his aunt, Lady Willoughby Hawksmoor, who is determined that her daughter will be his wife. When she discovers he is far more interested in Eleanor Burgess, her underpaid and much put-upon companion, Lady Willoughby shows she will stop at nothing to keep them apart.⁠

Kitty Baxter, author of I’ll Take That One: An E

Kitty Baxter, author of I’ll Take That One: An Evacuee’s Childhood describes the moment she read to her mother that her father had been killed in action…

If you want to read more about Kitty’s fascinating story, her memoir is out now!

Kitty Baxter was born in London in 1930, the daughter of a road sweeper and a cleaner and one of five children. War broke out just as Kitty turned nine and she became one of thousands of children evacuated to the countryside. This would be the first of three times that she was rehoused far from home over the course of the war.

Sometimes treated more like a servant than a small child, Kitty endured gruelling years cut off from her parents rather than a safe haven from war. She recalls her experiences living with strangers’ families in environments radically different to working-class London and how she navigated joyful moments and times of struggle and loss.

One of the last generation of women from this era, Kitty’s voice remains as whip-smart as her irrepressible nine-year-old self who triumphed over the adversity of a most unusual childhood.

Book launches are back! 🥂

On Wednesday night @gbpoliceadvisor celebrated Bad for Good at Goldsboro Books in Brighton. Sadly, train strikes meant none of the A&B team were able to join but others managed to catch these great clips of what looks to be a fabulous evening celebrating Graham’s debut novel!

Congratulations once again Graham 👏🏻

Convincing you to read The Season based on its aesthetic…

This regency romance is out now 💖

A lovely regency romance that follows Henrietta Gaydon who is making her debut in London society. However her popularity and apparent ease disguises the fact that she is out of her depth and that she dreads the objective of finding a husband. She longs for home, her father and Lord Henfield, who she has always treated as an older brother.⁠
⁠
Charles Henfield stopped thinking of Henrietta like a sister when she was sixteen. And he is determined to try his luck with her in London. Mistakes and misunderstandings, the complication of a feud between mamas, and Henrietta’s no longer fraternal feelings for Henfield, all conspire to make this a Season to remember.⁠
