ABSOLUTE POISON #5
ʻAn ingeniously constructed plot, deft dialogue, well-drawn characters, and a few humorous touches, make this an enjoyable intriguing read.'
Superstitious British Detective Joseph Rafferty is having a bad week -- not an unusual occurrence -- and he can't help feeling trouble comes in threes.
Rafferty's premonition turns out to be accurate when a company manager is found dead at his desk. The tyrannical Barstaple had known full well that he was hated by most of the office. But did he really deserve to be poisoned? And so horribly.
DYING FOR YOU #6
'Wit, charm, good writing, great characters, red herrings and a superb plot are just part of the reason this book is so good.'
Detective Inspector Joe Rafferty manages to become chief suspect in his own double murder investigation. And all he'd been doing was looking for love...
With his fortieth birthday on the horizon, he decides it's time to take the initiative. So he signs up with the Made in Heaven dating agency, persuading his more up-market cousin to let him borrow his identity for reasons of discretion. It's just unfortunate that the first two women with whom he strikes up a rapport should wind up murdered and with himself - or rather his alter ego - in the frame for the crimes.
Put in charge of the double murder investigation, Rafferty is forced to keep a low profile, soothe his cousin's fury at wearing the murderer's badge of shame, and at the same time find the girls' real killer.
BAD BLOOD #7
ʻAnother page turner!'
A robbery gone wrong, Detective Joe Rafferty thinks, when murder victim, wealthy widow Clara Mortimer was found battered to death in her home. Then Rafferty learned she wasn't a widow at all - and her estranged husband was living in the same block under a false name.
Their investigation brings Rafferty and Llewellyn face to face with just how down and dirty families can be...and not just the families of murder victims.
