More suspense than you can shake a fist at

Apologies for such a long radio silence. We’ve been off on our adventures!

Lovely to be back on terra firma and to be able to announce that the next Lindenshaw story, “And Nothing But the Truth” is available for pre-order on Amazon and all the usual sites.

Some truths don’t set you free.

The pandemic may be winding down, but for Chief Inspector Robin Bright, life never really goes back to normal. One second, he’s having breakfast with his adorable husband—and their equally adorable Newfoundland, Hamish—and the next, he gets the dreaded call: a body’s been found. What initially appears to be a mugging gone wrong turns out to be murder, and Robin is on the case.

Adam Matthews is happy to act as a sounding board—much as he tries not to get involved—but when Robin’s case intersects with a mystery from within their own family, he’s embroiled whether he likes it or not. Loquacious genealogists, secret pregnancies, and a potentially dubious inheritance all ensure that Adam won’t be doing his hundred-and-one headteacher tasks in peace anytime soon.

Lies pile onto lies, and the more the story changes, the more the killer is revealed. Without proof, however, Robin and his team are powerless, and the murderer isn’t the only one with something to hide. But Robin won’t stop until he’s found the whole truth, and nothing but.

And there’s more…

In the meantime, you can find the most recent Lindenshaw featured among a host of cracking reads at the latest Romantic Suspense event. Some good suggestions for the TBR pile.

    1. Thanks, Tina. As for Hamish…

      I had this huge dilemma I wrestled with all of last year. Campbell was already old for a Newfie so I had the choice of a) stopping writing the Lindenshaw series b) letting him live to an unreasonably long age (like Poirot!) and so risking the books losing realism or c) letting him slide away heroically and with dignity, off page and then introducing a new dog. I chose the third option and wrote it with tears in my eyes.

      1. I understand and I’m sure I’ll feel the same when I read it. I always appreciated that Adam inherited him young enough to be around for so long. 

  1. I’m so happy. I have preordered from Riptide but I had written down that the book will be released in June. I’m so happy that this is happening in May.
