No One Will Hear You Scream
Blood feuds rarely end well. Occasionally the hatchet will be buried, but more often than not, it will be in the skull of someone. No One Will Hear You Scream, from the start, narrates the antagonism of a famous author, Ruby Latimer, with a young and ambitious journalist, Lizzie Spector, heroine of Achilles Heel – Your Stalker Solution, author’s first book.
Ruby Latimer has sold millions of books, but the current tome is proving frightfully difficult, ergo finding a suitable ending. Then out of the blue a solution is found. Unfortunately, in order to conceal her successful conclusion, heads may need to roll – quite literally.
Crime will always, unfortunately, be a fact of life. How local gangs develop, expand and terrorize whole estates and communities is also a fact of modern-day living. To some out to protect what they have some gangs offer a lifeline to continuing their privileged life. Ruby Latimer may need to use one if things go pear shape.
This novel contains part of Ruby Latimer’s book. You can reasonably call it the ‘book within the book’, something that whilst at first reading appears irrelevant, but as you continue, the relevance – and the title – becomes all too frighteningly apparent.
This is not a book for the squeamish. It is a genuine adult crime thriller which will keep you guessing as to who has done it! Read on and all will be revealed – maybe!

Neighbourhood Watch
Neighbourhood Watch is based on family dynamics and lifelong repercussions of decisions and actions made in youthful haste. Self-preservation and maintaining a good public image are strong motives throughout the book. Such incentives can lead even the most upstanding people to deception and reveal a darker side, if only to themselves.
Although the main characters differ greatly, they are all linked by events from the past. Neighbourhood Watch explores the danger of putting misplaced trust into institutions or their representatives, for this trust can be manipulated and used to the advantage of those it is placed in. Within the story, there is a heavy focus on the humanity of people and how they deal with a set of circumstances they may have no control over. There is an underlying current that is deconstructed – that a confident woman is seen as almost arrogant and untrustworthy, and is not to be given the benefit of the doubt.

Murderer: On Your Mark
Brighton, 1974: Mark, a trendy, young university lecturer, finds himself at a crossroads. His current lover and former student Justine seems to be growing restive, and he desperately casts around for a way of holding onto her.

Based on a re-working of the notorious Arthur John Waite case in New York in the early twentieth century and updated to the 1970s, Murderer: On Your Mark combines a gripping thriller with an acute, unwavering portrait of an intelligent, apparently decent man whose greed and innate sense of superiority allow him to take a turn towards a sociopathic villainy.

Murder Unchained
When Private Investigator Paul West took on his next case, it seemed easy and one that would pay handsomely. All West had to do was compile a profile of Jason Knox for his only son, Matthew, who had no memory of him. His father had walked away from Matthew’s mother when he was an infant and left him the sole beneficiary of his multi-million-dollar estate.
It didn’t take long before he was thrust into one of the most complex cases in a long and illustrious career. It took him to Ebony River, a small town, on Vancouver Island’s east coast that seldom gave a wink or nod to the outside world.
What he found was the two-year-old unsolved murder of Jason Knox and his wife that was still baffling RCMP Sergeant Andy Holt. When West told him why he had come to Ebony River, Holt asked him if he would go undercover and help him solve the case.
West’s investigation concentrated on an eclectic range of residents including: bikers with an agenda, a former member of the town council with a grudge to settle, a small church time had left behind, a farmer’s Sunday dinner that revealed hidden secrets and a mayor desperately trying to get re-elected.
Murder Unchained is a page-turner. It will keep the reader guessing up to the last page.
