An unputdownable psychological thriller full of breathtaking twists by a best-selling author.

DID SHE OR DIDN’T SHE?

PLEASE NOTE THIS BOOK WAS FIRST PUBLISHED AS “CAGING THE TIGER”

She’d planned the perfect murder of her husband so many times. And now he’s dead. But did she really kill him?

Dr Helen Wilkinson stands over the body of her husband, Edward. It’s just as she’d imagined it so many times before. He looks calm, asleep almost. And yet something isn’t right: in her fantasies there was never so much blood.

Her husband was a professor with few friends. A manipulative and sadistic man who delighted in the humiliation of others. Many wished him dead. But Helen has fantasised, planned and committed the crime so many times in her head she doesn’t know what is real anymore.

Now she’s the prime suspect. How can she convince the police she didn't murder her husband — when she doesn't know herself?

LAST CALL

Jackie and Dursha are two friends in dead-end jobs. They supplement their income by selling pics of themselves as stock photos online.

The abandoned Red Water Hotel is the perfect location for a shoot. But when they enter the decrepit building, Dursha begins to feel a strange presence. Jackie dismisses her concerns and they head further in.

Strange moths have clustered, and the light filtering through has an eerie shimmer. The young women see a telephone number scrawled on the wall.

By now Dursha is totally creeped out. But Jackie is already calling it...

 

THE WIDOW

Dan decides to go to a party held by an old friend. It’s a no-good group, but it might help him put his worries aside. His life is spiralling and he has a serious toothache to add to his woes.

At the party he strikes up a conversation with an enigmatic man who has excellent whiskey, and promises him a quick way to make money.

In all honesty, Dan just wants enough cash to pay for a dentist, but he journeys with his new friend to a house deep in the country. The hazy plan is to rob it of a known stash of money.

It sounded good in theory, but now his friend is nowhere to be seen and Dan is stuck inside the house, face to face with the widow who lives there...

A BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN COZY VILLAGE MYSTERY FROM A BESTSELLING AUTHOR

Meet the Colonel (hardly anyone calls him Hugh). He moves to a quiet country cottage in Dorset, which he’d once visited with his late wife.

He finds it easy to slip into local society and decides that Frog End’s upcoming annual fete will be the start of his mission to be a pillar of the community.

But when Lady Swynford is found dead on the night of the fete, it becomes clear that Frog End has a darker side. And as Inspector Squibb investigates the case, the Colonel finds himself more involved than he could possibly have imagined.

DISCOVER FROG END, A BEAUTIFUL ENGLISH VILLAGE WITH SOME DARK SECRETS

Perfect for fans of Faith Martin, Agatha Christie and Stella Cameron.

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING THE VILLAGE MYSTERIES

“A thoroughly enjoyable British village cozy mystery that is the first in a series. I'm looking forward to reading the rest.” Sherri

“I enjoyed this, and look forward to visiting Frog End again.” Laura

“If you enjoy Miss Marple or the Midsomer Murders type of story then you'll like this.” Carole

THE DETECTIVE
At the grand old age of 55, the Colonel had been put out to grass by the British Army. In the same year, his beloved wife, Laura, died after a long illness. He found himself facing a bleak and lonely future. There were the children, of course, but they were grown up and had busy lives of their own.

One summer, years before, he and Laura spent their leave in England, touring the West Country. They stopped at a village in Dorset called Frog End which had a spit-and-sawdust pub called the Dog and Duck. Laura had fallen in love with a stone cottage seen across the village green. She had admired the thatched roof and the pink roses round the door. Years later, after her death, the Colonel had revisited the same village alone and seen Laura’s dream cottage had aged badly and that it was up for sale. Against his better judgement, he bought it.

THE SETTING
The cottage was called Pond Cottage and the Colonel soon discovered that he had made a big mistake. The two-hundred-year-old building had deathwatch beetle, rising damp, a falling roof, rot and decay throughout. There was no heating and the wiring was a dangerous disgrace. Logs for an open fire were kept in a tin bath in the scullery and the nettle-infested lavatory was housed outside in a jungle. There was no sign of any pond.

But there were compensations: a view over the beautiful village green, clusters of other stone cottages, a Norman church built on Saxon foundations, a graveyard of ancient tombs leaning at perilous angles. And, of course, the Dog and Duck.

A forensic physician fuels political uproar when she sticks to her findings

 

When bodies of immigrants begin to wash up on a Hastings beach, no one would envy police doctor Callie Hughes’ sad job of checking for vital signs or pronouncing death.

 

Hughes works alongside detectives DI Miller and DS Jeffries, slowly cataloguing some dozen deaths from a boat suspected to have capsized during an illegal crossing from France to England.

 

But one victim stands out to Hughes. Body number nine. It has several characteristics that mark it as different from the others. Could it be the body of a people smuggler?

 

Despite Dr Hughes having supplied crucial information about previous homicides, Miller and Jeffries are quick to dismiss her theories.

 

But without their backup, will her desire to get to the bottom of the case land her in deep trouble?

Detective Superintendent Ray Paterson is a young and (thanks to family money) wealthy womaniser, separated from his model wife and tipped to be the youngest ever commissioner of police. He knows he’s weak when it comes to practical policing and struggles to find a place among his peers, desperate to be a good policeman and not just a 'climber'.

Detective Inspector Johnny Clocks is a foul-mouthed, working-class officer. He grew up surrounded by rogues and villains to become a first-class thief taker with the Met police. However, his childish attitude has short-circuited his career and he spends his days antagonising as many people as he can.
