Anyone who’s a bit tired of the Dan Brown hoopla (count me in) will enjoy this…

Love the butter. Any other DB inspired titles/themes you can think of?

Congratulations to Deborah Fowler, whose novel A S Congratulations to Deborah Fowler, whose novel A St Ives Christmas Mystery, has been shortlisted for the Holyer an Gof Publisher Awards! Good luck to the other nominated titles and authors, the winners are announced this Saturday 5th July.

Get your copy of A St Ives Christmas Mystery now and escape to a cooler Cornwall …

When tragedy brings Merrin McKenzie back to St Ives, she knows adjusting might take time, even with the comfort of Christmas back in her hometown. Stepping back from her career as a solicitor, she agrees to clean holiday rentals for her friends who own cottages nearby. She anticipates dirty laundry and sandy floors, but she didn’t sign up for a dead body, neatly tucked up in one of the guest beds.

The police are baffled by the young man’s identity and the strangeness of his death. For Merrin, however, coincidences are beginning to stack up. Even though Inspector Louis Peppiatt is sceptical of her theories, something sinister is hiding beneath the festive surface of this charming seaside town. As the case unfolds, a dark side to the Cornish coast emerges.
Did someone say Christmas? 🎄❄️ Coming soon Did someone say Christmas? 🎄❄️

Knave of Diamonds is out now and available on our website via the link in our bio.
 
When Mary Russell was a child, she adored her Uncle Jake, the black sheep of the family. But she hasn’t heard from him in many years, until he presents himself at her door with an abundance of problems for his clever niece to deal with. Not the least of which is the reason the family rejected him in the first place: his involvement in the infamous disappearance of the Irish Crown Jewels from Dublin Castle in 1907.

It was a theft that shook a government, enraged a King and threatened the establishment. Juggling conflicting loyalties and international secrets, Russell is entangled in the web of a case that not even the great Sherlock Holmes could solve.
