Hello Again! - Oops! a swift update!!

Okay, I am going to come straight to the point of this blog post, not least because I just heard a roll of thunder and I am wondering whether being on the computer if lightening begins, would be a good thing.

Death on Tyneside is only 99c/99p to download for a short time. So, if you haven't yet read book two of the Agnes Lockwood series of cozy murder mysteries, then get your copy today!

Hopefully the lady in the picture isn't too late to download her copy at that low price, as that would be a shame.

Also, still on the subject of Death on Tyneside, the Author Academy Awards Competition has been extended. Therefore, if you haven't already voted, please follow the link and add your vote today. The book is in the Mystery Section on Page 10

NEXT CHAPTER

Another piece of news to share with you is that my publisher, known as Creativia, has changed the name to --- loud drum Roll ---Next Chapter. I have added a picture of the new symbol.

Take a look at their new website Next Chapter and, if you know a budding author out there, then pass on the link; they might want to submit their manuscript to them.

Apart from that, I'm afraid I have nothing else to tell you. All is very peaceful at the moment, apart from the odd roll of thunder. I hope it doesn't get too close!

Take care all and enjoy the rest of the weekend! Hope the storm doesn't come your way!! AND, don't forget to vote - Please!

Cheers!

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!
