#1 – Never Seen
The victims are young men. Their killer drugs them and slashes their wrists. Then he cleans their bodies, combs their hair and wraps them in protective sheeting before leaving them where they’ll be easily found.
Is it a compulsion? A game? Or a brutally delivered message?
These are the questions Homicide Detective Lawrence Hoskins must answer as he takes on the lead role in his first serial murder investigation. But as the bodies keep coming, he feels like he’s the one holding the blade, the one standing between life and death. Under mounting pressure he turns to former colleague Cass Fletcher for help. She knows how a serial killer thinks and why they can’t stop. If she can tell him why, perhaps it will lead him to who.
Except Hoskins has already made one mistake he’s not aware of. Involving Fletcher is another. And as the killer continues to elude him the case takes its toll in ways he never expects. More so when the signs start pointing in a new direction…
"Five beautiful boys lined up in a row
No longer unnoticed but seen by all
The officers who killed them soon everyone will know
Because the tougher they act, the harder they fall."
#2 – Never Heard
How do you get the truth heard…
When those who’d rather keep it silent fear nothing?
"There was one twist in particular that took me completely by surprise."
Detective Lawrence Hoskins hasn’t been back to work yet; not since the incident that almost cost him his career, his pride, his dignity and his life. He tells everyone he’s doing fine. Sometimes he believes it. But when a former work acquaintance opens up about her missing twin he welcomes the chance to busy his mind with something else. In more ways than one.
Attractive medical examiner’s assistant Catherine Marshall describes her brother Simon as a good man with a kind heart who simply vanished without trace in the summer of 2014. But it’s not long before Hoskins learns not everyone remembers the nightclub DJ in the same way. The more questions he asks, the more the picture distorts.
With no other means of getting to the truth, Hoskins retraces Simon’s steps to the exclusive nightclubs of the east coast where – five years on – danger still lurks beneath the bright lights and under-the-table exchanges. And when he’s singled out as an unwelcome tourist the walls close in around him fast.
His every instinct screams at him to run. But finding Simon is about more than impressing Catherine, it’s a test of nerve…
One he’s not at all sure he can pass any more.
#3 – Never Spoken
It’s not the things we say that do the most harm.
But the things we don’t.
"Great characters, edge of your seat twists, thrills and intrigue."
Rosa Marie Santago said she was innocent. Even though she was found with her lover on her lap, his throat cut, his blood on her nightgown. Even though her prints were all over the blade, no one else in the house. Even though the jury was quick to secure her conviction. Three years into her sentence and she still says the same.
But Rosa’s innocence is less of a concern to Private Investigator Lawrence Hoskins than his partner’s guilt. The case is a no-go, but was handed to Cass Fletcher by her former field training officer on his death bed and now she feels obliged to see it through. So how to solve a murder after the jury has already convicted?
Then there’s the silent calls at all hours of the night. The feeling he can’t shake that he’s being watched. Paranoia maybe, after his last case rattled enough chains in the criminal underworld to come back and choke him. Or is it that the deeper they go into Rosa’s life, the clearer the parallels between that case and this one become until it’s hard to separate them?
Once again Hoskins and Fletcher find themselves caught up in a world where the enemy is silent and wears many faces. A world of illegal drugs and dirty money, in which the hunted turn hunters without a word spoken.
And with danger closing in from all directions, Hoskins is forced into a decision he can’t tell anyone about. Not even Fletcher.
#4 – Missing Piece
Sometimes to defeat the monster, you have to become the monster…
In the summer of 1985 an eight-year-old boy vanishes near his home.
Five years later and eighty miles away, a nine-year-old girl reappears after going missing for six months. She doesn’t speak at first. When she does no one believes where she says she’s been, what she’s done, who she’s seen. But three decades later and the now thirty-nine-year-old ordained pastor may be private investigator Cass Fletcher’s only hope; a last chance to find the missing boy before his mother loses her battle with a terminal illness.
The two cases couldn’t be more different – the children were from different districts, different schools, different ages and social status, one child returned, the other didn’t. Only their faith offers the faintest of connections. But it’s enough for Fletcher. She knows that for her and her partner to do in months what law enforcement haven’t been able to do in thirty-five years they’re going to have to look in the places no one else has.
Except while time might be their greatest enemy, it isn’t their only one.
Because the closer Fletcher gets to the ghosts of the past, the clearer the consequences of disturbing them become. Devastating for some. For others deadly.
#5 – The Violet Hour
Meet Violet
She takes after her father…
Private investigator Lawrence Hoskins has one job to do. Locate a teenage runaway. He knows what the young woman looks like, and with some degree of guesswork where she is. It should be a piece of cake. Except the client requesting the job is the missing teenager’s father, and also a cold-blooded murderer and fugitive on the run.
When Hoskins first developed an alliance on a previous case with organized crime boss, Jimmy ‘The Drain’ Rosedale, he’d known it was only a matter of time before it would come back to bite him. And now that the man has resurfaced when he should be in hiding, the teeth that nip are sharper than ever. If Jimmy goes down, Hoskins goes with him. The only way to get the gangster off his back and out of his life for good is to do as he says. Find his daughter, whatever it takes.
But as Hoskins soon learns, Jimmy’s kid is no ordinary young woman. How could she be? She may have changed her name, her appearance, and travelled three thousand miles to get away from home, but she can’t outrun who she really is – the daughter of a man with a price on his head so lucrative there are those who’ll do anything to find him. So when Hoskins discovers Jimmy’s daughter has exchanged one crime family for another, he knows they’re all in trouble. Because secrets never stay hidden for long. And crime bosses take deception very, very personally.
