Overview: I’m an English author who doesn’t write regular. ‘Regular’ is fine, but it’s not what you’ll find on our journey. Vibrant, fast-paced plots wrap around the pleasure and pain of equally-vibrant love stories, woven together to bring you the unexpected and fire up your emotions!
Genre: Historical Mystery
1. Murder at the Green Mill: When Sandie witnesses her client committing a cut-and-dried murder, her head tells her to walk away. Her heart tells her she can’t.
Keeping away from the mob is Sandie’s first rule of survival… until the day someone comes to call, and changes everything.
If you enjoy Daisy’s approach to life, you’ll love Sandie’s. She’s a little grittier than Daisy… and she has to be. Living in a different era, and in a vastly-different place, it’s something of a prerequisite…
1920’s Chicago. What came to be known as the ‘roaring twenties’. For private investigator Sandie Shaw, ‘roaring’ was hardly the flattering kind of way she would ever describe it.
Born and raised in the city, she despises everything it has become. In her view, Chicago typifies the false decadence gripping America. Still recovering from the lawlessness of the Wild West, her city and the rest of the country then entered the world war for a brief time, and when that was over, the whole nation seemed to lose all sense of reason.
People went crazy. Prohibition raised its ugly head, and the mobsters and the flappers took over Chicago. Her beloved city had fallen at the mercy of those who believed they were above the law… once again.
Now fifty-three, for a long time Sandie has had to be strong willed to stay in one piece. Being gutsy and taking no nonsense helps to maintain a sense of right and wrong, and to retain her very individual identity. Taking over the one-man agency when her father died, and making it a one-woman business, she knew from the off that in a male-dominated environment she would have to be tough, and witty, to succeed.
And that keeping well away from anyone with a machine gun was a big part of staying alive.
For eight years she has avoided anything mob-related. Then one day someone comes to call, and without Sandie even realizing what she’s getting into, suddenly she’s up to her chin in murky waters.
And that changes everything…
2. Christmas in Chicago is Murder: A face from the past appears at a glitzy, high-society Christmas party in Chicago. An hour later, a body is found floating in the swimming pool. Are the two things connected?
Sandie and the team have been invited to a glittering festive party by a wealthy new client, who suspects her husband of being unfaithful. The object of his desires is also there, and the client thinks it a good idea for the guys to observe them at play, and see if they do anything to give themselves away.
Someone else is also present. Someone who knows too much about one of the team’s very personal past life. Coming out of the blue, it is a disturbing and unexpected development. Then, as the merry-making continues, things turn even more worrying. A body is found floating in their swimming pool.
Sandie is convinced the mysterious stranger and the dead body are connected. There is no evidence to suggest that, but the face from the past is a coincidence she can’t ignore, as well as a real threat to one of the team. To make life even scarier, before the police arrive on the scene the stranger has disappeared into the night.
The feeling won’t go away there is a link. But with precious little in the way of hard facts, it’s going to take a huge effort to unravel the thread that ties things together. Especially when matters become an awful lot more complicated…
