A CRIME THRILLER WITH A COMPELLING DETECTIVE WHO WILL STOP AT NOTHING TO BRING THE MOST VICIOUS CRIMINALS TO JUSTICE.

Please note this book was first published as WILL POWER.

British Detective Kate Power struggles to keep her personal life together while investigating a difficult cold case . . .

Still trying to find her feet in Birmingham, Kate is back in the Fraud Squad. It’s under-staffed, under-funded and under the leadership of a hostile boss who seems to actively dislike her.

Kate lands the driest, most unexciting case ever — until a member of the public brings new evidence: a will has been forged by a man who is set to inherit millions.

The case is far from clear cut, and the investigation is hampered by Kate’s boss. But then things take off.

Now investigating three deaths relating to the will, Kate must solve the cold case and figure out how to jump-start her personal life before everything comes crashing down around her . . .

Set in the late 90s in England’s second city, this is the fourth in a series of compulsively readable crime thrillers.

KATE POWER
Personal tragedy cut short Kate Power’s promising career in the Met. A sergeant at thirty, she’s returned to bustling, bright Birmingham with the promise of a fresh start with the CID there, new friends and a house her great aunt has given her. Sadly it's the home from hell, with a garden to match. The new job brings its own problems: clearly the Birmingham force still has some officers who believe women’s sole purpose is to mop up harassment.

A THRILLING VICTORIAN MYSTERY — BASED ON THE SHOCKING TRUE CRIME THAT SHOCKED LONDON SOCIETY

A DAZZLING WIDOW IN POSSESSION OF A FORTUNE

London, 1872. Society beauty Cecilia Castello lives alone in a gothic mansion on the outskirts of town. Since the untimely death of her abusive husband, the place has become her sanctuary.

Cecilia’s first marriage nearly killed her and she is in no hurry to repeat past mistakes. But she has a terrible secret . . .

THE RESPECTABLE HUSBAND SHE NEEDED TO SAVE HER REPUTATION

Cecilia sets her sights on unremarkable businessman Mr Charles Cranbrook. No one can believe his luck. Least of all Charles himself. The two wed after a whirlwind courtship.

Then his luck runs out. Soon after his wedding day, Charles is poisoned.

WHO WAS THE ONE TO ADMINISTER THE FATAL DOSE?

There’s talk of suicide, but who would choose such an agonizing death? Does the beautiful Cecilia know more than she is letting on?

As the inquest wears on, Cecilia’s darkest secrets are dragged into light — and London’s high society is scandalized.

Could she be guilty of something worse than even the gossips are claiming?

Based on the notorious Victorian murder involving Charles and Florence Bravo and Dr James Gully, proponent of the “water cure”, this story reaches beneath the veneer of Victorian respectability and twists the ingredients of enormous fortune, sexual adventure, domestic abuse, avarice, and jealousy into a satisfying whole. Expertly researched by the author, this novel proposes an intriguing solution to the case.

Perfect for fans of Josephine Cox, Anna Jacobs, Jeffery Archer and Ken Follet.

Detective Meadows investigates a bizarre death in a small Welsh town

When the manager of a residential home for adults with learning difficulties is found dead in the freezer, the police investigation must tread carefully. Many of the residents are vulnerable. But could one of them be the killer?

Wonderfully named Detective Inspector Winter Meadows – hippie parents have a lot to answer for –leads the inquiry. He begins to uncover some irregularities: in the finances, in the standards of care and with the account of events that staff and residents give to the police.

The neighbours of the care home are troubled with all the goings-on. But their woes are increased when one of them is found dead in her home in suspicious circumstances. Is someone trying to cover their tracks?

Who is the murderer and what is their motive? DI Meadows must get to the bottom of the case before the killer and the evidence slips through his fingers.

FROZEN MINDS is the second book to feature DI Winter Meadows and his chirpy sidekick DC Tristan Edris. It can be enjoyed entirely on its own – fans of Elly Griffiths, Val McDermid and Pippa McCathie will love it – but look out for the first book, THE SILENT QUARRY.

Looking for a gripping murder mystery with a feisty female sleuth? Meet Alex Duggins in this new series from a bestselling author.

SOME PASTS ARE MORE DEADLY THAN OTHERS . . .

Pub owner and village sleuth Alex Duggins has always trusted Hugh Rhys completely. He’s been her ever-reliable bar manager for ages. She doesn’t know much about him, but there’s no one she trusts more behind her bar and the villagers know they can count on him. Until two women from his past turn up unexpectedly and Hugh can barely contain his fury.

His reaction shocks the village and leaves Alex wondering if she ever knew Hugh at all.

A MURDER SCENE WITHOUT A BODY

A terrible scene is discovered in Hugh’s house. Blood and shattered glass everywhere — and Hugh won’t explain why. Then a battered body is found in a deep pond near his home. Alex and her boyfriend, Tony, are once again pulled into a chilling murder investigation.

Hugh immediately becomes the prime suspect. And Alex is determined to prove his innocence.

But is she hunting for a killer she doesn’t want to find?

Perfect for fans of Faith Martin, Agatha Christie, J.R. Ellis, and Clare Chase.

Stella Cameron is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author with over fourteen million copies of her books in print.

MEET ALEX AND TONY
People think Alex is the perfect girl-next-door, but she’s made of sterner stuff than most girls-next-door. Divorced pub owner and graphic artist, she meets challenges head on, especially when she decides to stand up for justice and the underdog. Alex is no stranger to trouble, never has been since she was a scrappy young girl with no dad and a mum working around the clock to keep them together.

Alex’s friend Tony Harrison is a vet. A quiet man with a sharp wit and strong belief in the goodness of others, he has taken hard knocks, not the least of these, the loss of a young wife who disappeared, never to be found.

THE VILLAGE
A view of Folly from The Hill — as locals call it — is cause for a smile in any season. Let’s try December, early on a cold morning. Snow covers frozen twigs that crackle beneath your feet. The snowfall is only a fine swirl now. On a high point to the west stands ruined Tinley Tower, the folly the village was named for. Below, across the green with its frozen duck pond, honey-yellow cottages huddle. Thin smoke straggles from chimneys and lights shine through small leaded windows. Villagers wake early here. The Black Dog, Alex Duggins’ pub, sits at the heart of it all, strands of colored lights shining along its eves. George’s bakery van is already on its rounds, as is the Lovell’s Dairy lorry. It’s too early for the scarlet-blazered children to be climbing on the school bus, but dog walkers are already marching through the narrow streets and across the green. Idyllic. Deceptively so?

THE BOOKS WHICH INSPIRED HEARTBEAT

The brilliantly entertaining and heartwarming books behind the hit 90s TV series Heartbeat. One of the top ten most watched shows of the decade.

THERE’S BARELY TIME FOR CONSTABLE NICK TO CATCH HIS BREATH

The work of Britain’s most popular copper is never done. Constable Nick’s happy beat in the North Yorkshire moors takes a watery turn when a bevy of bathing beauties causes a disturbance in local waterways.

Meanwhile, he has to cope with an array of eccentric characters: a postman who can’t read, a helpful woman who steals from the elderly people in her care, and a delightful small-time villain called Tin Lid Talbot.

Plus, between winning an aged tin of sardines in a local raffle and getting first prize at the local whist drive, he’s in danger of upsetting the villagers. As Constable Nick continues his entertaining career, there’s plenty to be getting on with.

“Stories of a constable on his village beat in North Yorkshire. All very gentle and far, far removed from the hurly burly of modern-day city policing.” Daily Telegraph

In the beautiful North Yorkshire countryside of the 1960s, Constable Nick’s roles are as varied as the eccentric villagers.

Perfect for fans of James Herriot, T.E. Kinsey, Gerald Durrell, J.R. Ellis or anyone who loves a great read.
