About this deal

Amidst the beauty of her settings unfolds captivating mysteries that will keep you turning the pages late into the night. Book 10 Frank doesn’t smoke and has been married 6 months , book 11 he’s having a cigarette and still why with makenzie!

She is escaping her past and wary of accepting new friendships, but soon finds herself embracing their kindness. One of the latest series from LJ Ross, the Summer Suspense Mysteries take place in the beautiful Cornish seaside. When they receive an invitation to attend the staff summer party — a Victorian murder mystery evening — it’s all a joke until the lights go out and an elderly man turns up dead. Weaving in eerie isolated parks, foggy evenings and a setting in the historic 2000-year-old Hadrian’s Wall, the fast-paced detective thriller will have you in thrall from the first page to the last.Ross loved books from a very early age when she would find old books from her mother’s chest that she would staple and illustrate during her middle school years.

She brings the landscape of Northumbria to life with her DCI Ryan books and the Cornish seaside with her Summer Suspense Mysteries. Its scattered community of fishermen, farmers, artists and jetsetters barely bat an eyelid, because theirs is a rarefied world, tucked beneath the lush forest that lines the banks of the Helford estuary, deep in the heart of Cornwall, where life is slow and people generally mind their own business. In a similar style to Agatha Christie, Daphne du Maurier, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Ross brings to life suspenseful mysteries which unfold against a beautiful background of the English countryside. Meanwhile, back at Northumbria CID, an old foe has taken the helm as Superintendent and is determined to destroy Ryan at any cost.The ‘Underground Killer’ takes his victims when they least expect it: standing on the edge of a busy Tube platform, as they wait for a train to arrive through the murky underground tunnels of London. This page is dedicated to giving you the latest The Creek release information, along with The Creek book cover art, synopsis and more. She's wary of accepting the friendship her new neighbours offer, but their kindness is too great to refuse and she begins to feel she has found her place in the world. However, she found herself dissatisfied after a decade working in law where every day was a battle and she longed for a change.

The novel received much popularity and commercial success that it is known as the novel that knocked Paula Hawkins’ fan favorite “The Girl on the Train” off the UK Kindle’s bestseller list. Murder and mystery combine with a sprinkling of romance and humour in this fast-paced crime whodunnit. It’s been five months since a killer walked free and DCI Ryan is preparing to leave Newcastle to hunt him down — this time, for good.

Kate Irving arrives at her grandfather's cottage at Frenchman's Creek in the dead of night with her young son, a small suitcase and little else.A few days into his sabbatical, the tranquility is broken when the body of a young woman is discovered abandoned on the ruins of the nearby monastery buildings.

The idea for the first novel in the series came while she was traveling to Edinburgh with her husband. But, as the dead man’s life begins to unfold, Ryan and his team of detectives realise that all is not as it appears. Anna Taylor arrives back on the island as a police consultant, old memories swim to the surface making her confront her difficult past. The lead protagonist in the novels is DCI Ryan, who unlike most of his contemporaries such as DCI Vera Stanhope or DCI Kate Daniels, does not have to navigate the dirty back lanes or sleazy basements of the large cities.

To uncover the truth, Ryan must delve deeper into the hearts of those around him to find what lies beneath. Even as she has a varied taste in the types of novels that she reads, and will not mind reading the odd women’s fiction or a romance.
