Just a Couple of Things...

Hello everyone,

Yes, it's me again. I bet you were all wondering what had happened to me as I haven't been around very much of late. Well the truth is, I haven't been around anywhere, which means that I don't have anything to pass on to you.

Nothing exciting has happened since I sent out my last blog. By that, I mean nothing exciting has happened in my own little world. But I am ever hopeful that one day I will come on here and tell you about something wonderful. Nevertheless, until happens, I am here with the same old... same old.

At the moment I am sitting here in my writing room with a cup of tea (waiting for wine o'clock 😉) trying to make some progress with my latest novel. Once again, it is about Agnes Lockwood and what she gets up to on Tyneside once she gets her teeth into a police investigation. This will be book three in the series. However, it is going slowing; my brain seems to have switched off. Maybe it's due to the recent heatwave! Hopefully I will be able to pick up the shreds again very soon.

Murder on Tyneside

This brings me to another point: Murder on Tyneside, the first book in the series, is free to download today. The offer will continue until 25th August. Therefore if you haven't yet read this novel, then now is a good time to add it to your reading list.

If you enjoy the read, I would be grateful if you would leave a review on Amazon. Leaving a review really helps authors to get their books noticed.

However, if you don't like it, then please just contact me.

Another thing, please spare a moment and follow the link to All Author and add your vote for the cover of Death on Tyneside. I am not sure why I entered this competition in the first place. I didn't realise that I had to keep pestering people to vote over and over again during the different stages of the contest. Hopefully this is the last stage and, now I have got this far, I would love to be in the 24 finalists. After that you can breathe a sigh of relief 😅 and so can I!

Well that's all for the moment,

Have a great day wherever you are

Cheers!!

Chink! Chink!

Death on Tyneside

Agnes Lockwood returns to Tyneside after spending a few months abroad. On her first visit, she gained quite the reputation as an amateur sleuth, as she helped the police solve a murder.

Now, she is simply looking forward to meeting again with Alan Johnson, a DCI with the Newcastle police force. Having missed him while she was away, she is hoping their relationship will continue to blossom.

But on her first day back in the city, she gets caught up in another murder. This time, her intrusion into the police investigation pushes Alan Johnson’s patience to the very limit.

Murder on Tyneside

Recently widowed Agnes Lockwood is spending a few days on Tyneside in Northeast England, keen on catching up with her past. But after only a few days at the hotel, an expensive item of jewelry is stolen.

After more jewelry goes missing, Chief Inspector Alan Johnson is assigned to the case. During the investigation, Alan recognizes Agnes as a friend from schooldays and they rekindle their friendship – with Agnes bombarding him with questions about the case.

After having dinner together one evening, they find a body lying on the roadside. Fearing for her safety, Alan warns Agnes to stay away from the case: theft is one thing, but murder is something else.

But being an inquisitive woman, Agnes can’t resist getting involved... too involved.

Only Twelve Days

This heartwarming story is set in a time when computers and mobile phones were still in their infancy.

It's almost Christmas, one of the most wonderful times of the year. Nearly everyone is eagerly looking forward to spending the festive season with their loved ones. But what about those who are facing Christmas alone?

Bill and Sally are two such people. Both are shy and lonely; left behind when the rest of the country was caught up in the changes of the swinging sixties. Will they avoid the holiday season as they usually do, and spend it alone? Or this year, just for a change, will Christmas catch up with them?

Though this story is set during the run up to Christmas, it is a tender love story to be enjoyed at any time of the year.

The Trojan Project

Sarah and her family's peaceful night is disturbed when a strange light rises from behind the Cheviot Hills, and a green mist descends across the valley. Its swirling tendrils, seeming to bear a life of their own as they snake across the land, can only be an omen of something sinister and evil.

Her fears seem confirmed when her husband fails to return home from working on the land, and when he is still missing the following morning, she and her children set out to search for him. A terrifying discovery awaits her in the valley below her home and before long, Sarah and her children find themselves caught up in a desperate search, not only for her husband Pete, but also for the meaning of the green light. Finding herself pursued by the military, she slowly begins to realize her life, and the lives of those she loves, are in mortal danger.

The Trojan Project takes us into a nightmare world where no one is quite what they seem, and trust becomes a word with little meaning. Beware the green light in the sky; you never know what it hides!
