TWO MORE BRILLIANT NEW COVERS BY JUAN PADRON
Book 7 (The Fourth Victim) and 8 (Marked for Death) of the Inspector Sheehan Mysteries series are now ready for publication. My cover artist, Juan Padron, has again produced two fabulous covers.
A child buried alive.
Three lawyers are battered to death.
A judge is murdered in his own home.
DCI Sheehan and his Serious Crimes Unit investigate the murders of three solicitors. Revelations about the victim’s shady dealings offer Sheehan and his Serious Crimes Unit a large number of solid suspects.
Yet one suspect
stands out above the others. Having suffered abominably at the hands of all
three solicitors, it appears that a grieving mother has a powerful motive to kill
all of them. Evidence piles up against
her during the investigation and for many on the team there is no need to look
further for the killer.
But DCI Sheehan isn’t so sure. When a fourth victim is
murdered, he is forced to look at the entire investigation with fresh eyes.
Is the evidence against the key suspect as solid as it appears? Is some dark personage in the background
pulling strings and manipulating events?
When Sheehan starts
to look for the puppeteer, events escalate to an explosive climax.
A Knight of the Realm is murdered. High-level VIPs will attend the funeral. One of them is marked for death.
Sir Theodore Hayes was a hard and unpopular businessman. There is no shortage of suspects for his murder. What Sheehan and his Serious Crimes Unit don’t know, however, is that the New IRA had a hand in Sir Theodore’s killing.
And that is only the
first move in a terrorist plan that is set to ‘rock the British
Isles.’
A three-time loser offers Sheehan information that the IRA is planning something huge on the day of Sir Theodore’s funeral. Distracted by two further, seemingly unconnected murders, having no clue about the nature of the threat or its location, Sheehan and his team spend frantic days vainly trying to uncover the plot.
On the morning of the funeral, and with the hours racing by, Sheehan’s brain is in turmoil. He still has no idea about what the New IRA has planned.
Can he glean enough from the myriad small clues rattling through his head in time to stop the terrorists?
