419<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; font-size: 14pt;">Here&rsquo;s what one writer wrote about it:</span></strong></p>
420<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; font-size: 14pt;"><em>&ldquo;It is fun, exciting, humorous at times, and bloody and shocking at all the right moments&rdquo;. </em></span></strong></p>

422<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; font-size: 14pt;">Sorry, but this offer is only available in Britain and America.</span></strong></p>

453<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">There are three of them, unsurprisingly titled I, 2, and 3!</span></strong></span></p>
454<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">We have been busy revising and updating them, putting on new covers, and most importantly, reducing the price on all of them.</span></strong></span></p>
455<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">All three contain four full-length books, with no filler.</span></strong></span></p>
456<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">Readers can save a good amount of cash by opting for the box sets over buying each book individually, so it&rsquo;s worth doing.</span></strong></span></p>
457<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">Note: box sets are only available as Ebooks, because of the file size and 2,000 odd pages makes them unsuitable to put out in paperback.</span></strong></span></p>
458<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">Here are the three box sets available.</span></strong></span></p>

500<p><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">Hello there, wherever you may be.</span></strong></p>
501<p><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">We have a vacancy for up to six ARC readers for English detective stories. That is advanced reader copies, for reading and review.</span></strong></p>
502<p><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">Ideally, we would like the reviews placing within five days of the book being released.</span></strong></p>
503<p><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">You get a free ebook copy of the book before anyone else sees it. This copy would be for your eyes and your eyes only. Sorry, we cannot supply paperback copies because it works out as too expensive.</span></strong></p>
504<p><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">It&rsquo;
504s likely you will have placed book reviews on Amazon before, and you must have the capability to do so.</span></strong></p>
505<p><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">If you would like to join our small but enthusiastic team, drop me a quick line <a href="/contactus.html">here for more information.</a></span></strong></p>
506<p><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">&nbsp;</span></strong></p>
507<p><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">Thanks for reading,</span></strong></p>

533<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">It&rsquo;s called &ldquo;Crying Roses&rdquo; and is a chunky book too, but not in two parts. Well over 400 pages.</span></p>

535<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;">Here&rsquo;s a brief description:</span></p>
536<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;"><strong>&nbsp;</strong></span></p>
537<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans;"><strong>Imagine waking every morning, a stranger inside your head, telling you to kill people before bedtime.</strong><strong><br> <br> Last thing at night, the bowling club president, Barnabus Reynolds, is busy cashing up, preparing to go home. Everyone else has gone. He believes he is alone; but is he?<br> <br> At nine the next morning, the caretaker opens up to find Barnabus splayed out on his office floor, dead and gone. There is no blood to be seen, no cuts, no sign of any injury, and no murder weapon. Could it have been a heart attack or stroke?<br> <br> He checks the top drawer for yesterday&rsquo;s takings and finds nothing. Could it have been a robbery? How did the widely loved Barnabus meet his end? The caretaker is baffled and upset in equal measure, as he makes a call, summoning the emergency services.<br> <br> &ldquo;Crying Roses&rdquo; is the fifteenth book in the Inspector Walter Darriteau series, another chunky standalone novel, and one to keep any reader interested, featuring strong characters capable of jumping straight into the reader&rsquo;s brain.</strong></span></p>

598<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; color: #ffffff;"><strong>&ldquo;The Final Door - Part One&rdquo; is now available on Amazon to order.</strong></span></p>
599<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; color: #ffffff;"><strong>Here&rsquo;s more information and the blurb:</strong></span></p>
600<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; color: #ffffff;"><strong><em>Important Note for readers: </em></strong></span></p>
601<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; color: #ffffff;"><strong>&ldquo;The Final Door&rdquo; is the largest case-story Inspector Walter Darriteau has ever dealt with. The full investigation runs to over 700 pages and has been split into Parts One and Two. The book promoted here is Part One only. Readers should know all plot threads will not be resolved during Part One. Here&rsquo;s the blurb. &nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></span></p>
602<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; color: #ffffff;"><strong>&ldquo;On a squally November night beside the Dee estuary on the Wirral peninsula, a man falls to his death from Thurstaston cliffs. But was it an accident, suicide or murder? Who is the victim, why would anyone want to kill him, and if it was murder, who is responsible?</strong></span></p>
603<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; color: #ffffff;"><strong>Thirty minutes later, a pair of tripping, giggling kids ring the emergency services to report the incident.</strong></span></p>
604<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; color: #ffffff;"><strong>Wirral police were busy dealing with a catastrophic traffic pile-up on the M53, and seek help from neighbouring Chester. At midnight, Inspector Walter Darriteau was disturbed at home and asked to attend the incident to examine the scene, and secure the body.</strong></span></p>
605<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; color: #ffffff;"><strong>So begins &ldquo;The Final Door &ndash; Part One&rdquo;, the eleventh book in the Inspector Walter Darriteau series, a chunky story that takes the reader on a journey no one could have foreseen after that initial phone call set everything in motion.&rdquo;</strong></span></p>
606<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; color: #ffffff;"><strong>This is a work of fiction.</strong></span></p>
607<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; color: #ffffff;"><strong>As you might expect Part two is to follow. More information on that as we have it.</strong></span></p>

634<p>&nbsp;</p>
635<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; font-size: 14pt;">Here&rsquo;s the blurb:</span></strong></p>
636<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; font-size: 14pt;">Meredith Hawkes is on the move again, this time to Woodbridge in Suffolk. </span></strong></p>
637<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; font-size: 14pt;">After he&rsquo;s found a bed for the night, he searches for a town-centre pub serving food, and goes inside. There&rsquo;s a striking young woman propping up the bar, laptop, tablet, and newspaper spread out before her.</span></strong></p>
638<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; font-size: 14pt;">
638Hawkes buys a drink and orders food. The girl ignores him. A broad man comes in, hustles up to the girl, and kicks off, telling her to keep her nose out of his affairs, or she&rsquo;ll regret it. He&rsquo;s sure upset about something, but that&rsquo;s it, and he&rsquo;s gone as fast as he arrived.</span></strong></p>
639<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; font-size: 14pt;">Hawkes sympathises with the girl, but she imagines he&rsquo;s trying to pick her up, and is abrupt with him. He shrugs his shoulders, and moves away to sit in the corner to eat his dinner.</span></strong></p>
640<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; font-size: 14pt;">Ten minutes later, the girl packs away her things, and makes to leave. But at the door, she pauses and approaches his table, and apologises for being rude. Water off a duck&rsquo;s back to him, as he points to the opposite chair, and she accepts the invite, sits down, and orders food.</span></strong></p>
641<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; font-size: 14pt;">She has a story to tell, and needs help in unravelling it, and it isn&rsquo;t long before she discovers he&rsquo;s just the kind of guy she can share her troubles with.</span></strong></p>
642<p><strong><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans; font-size: 14pt;">So begins &ldquo;Running Forever&rdquo;, the second in a series of Meredith Hawkes stories, and one that contains massive criminality, murder, and death, and it&rsquo;s no surprise that everyone Hawkes meets is not as they first appear.</span></strong></p>
