'Hold on to your hats! A gripping, humorous, not-so cozy, fast-paced cocktail of Agatha Christie, Lynda La Plante, E L James, and Martina Cole.'
In the sleepy British village of Nettleacre three amateur sleuths; a wealthy ex-glamour girl, a practical ex-policewoman, and a feisty white witch, unlock dark secrets through an anonymous crime post-box for frightened locals. You've read cozy mysteries where the detective solves everything neatly. But what if the clues came from whispers, from villagers too afraid to speak? What if solving the case meant facing not just murderers, but things that shouldn't exist? This isn't a puzzle book. It's a reckoning. Normally our midlife heroines have fun investigating low-level crime, plotting ways to avenge village bullies over a glass of wine. But when they begin to hear anonymous sources reporting missing women, they step into a world the law can't reach. Where fear and shame silences and unseen forces move swiftly behind the scenes. Bigger than them and their post box the missing-persons case spirals out of control. They're forced to trust a charming serial killer, a redeeming drug baron, and a rogue MI6-funded London-based police unit. Not forgetting the supernatural entities that land uninvited through their kitchen ceiling (once they stop fainting) reframing their life view, relationships, and the investigation. Coupled with the complications of a romance that crosses dimensions, they have to wonder if helping others was worth it, should they stand down? The dead refuse to stay silent and won't let them rest. To do nothing enables, but to stand up could destroy them all. Perfect for readers who love amateur sleuths, village noir, British humour, seductive romance, and the uncanny. AUTHOR>She writes what she knows (a former model, sports celebrity assistant, music to film producer, child charity worker, and police crime investigator) she brings real-world insight to stories of justice, corruption, fame, survival, love, and revenge.
