Ireland 1944.. A young man’s body is pulled from the River Lee. He’s wearing a distinctive silver ring that belonged to Paudy Daly, the eldest son of the notorious Mixer Daly. Why?
Autumn 1940. Germany invades Britain. Newport is blitzed. Danny O’Shea’s house is bombed, his wife is killed. While taking his young son Adam to neutral Ireland, they witness an attack on a German convoy. The result is brutal.
If it's wicked, supernatural, mysterious or downright spooky that's what I write about. Real happenings, real people and places.
Background
Information
I am professional criminologist and author and I will take you to the heart of the stark realities of true-crime in the form of wicked murders and deadly deeds. My mystery and murder series (four books) commissioned by Countryside Books, includes a number of dramatic, unsolved murders that are still on the cold case police files – maybe you can assist in solving them!
Just published (December 2016) is my new and exciting historical fiction adventure set in 1820’s Georgian London called, The Cato Conundrum.
Authentically set in the bawdy and raucous City of London in 1822, it is an exciting and compelling adventure story, the like of which has never been told before where daring ‘dark arts’ collide with political intrigue, sexual encounters and the most heinous conspiracy imaginable – here’s the link so you can read more about me and my writing.
