'One thing is for certain. Something has been stolen from this room.' When popular podcaster Erica Scott is found murdered at a true crime convention, it soon becomes clear that the case will not be straightforward. Someone had a motive to harm Erica. In fact - lots of people did. And when Rita Silvera is drawn in to the case, she realises that there are many more questions than answers. Is the killer the aggressive co-host of the podcast? The creepy professor who wrote a book about Jack the Ripper, or the woman convinced he killed her sister? The ex convict boyfriend? The stuck up neighbours? The troubled nephew of Rita's partner? The 'former cult member'? Or none of the above? ? (Prompt #93)…

When Pepelito dramatically escapes certain death in a bullfight, he enrages some and delights others. Taken pity on by Rita Silvera, a caring homicide detective, he soon begins to heal from the physical and psychological torture of the bullring. But Pepelito's nightmare is not over. Javier Castella is the best matador in Spain - maybe the world. He would kill for a chance to finish his masterpiece - and he's not the only one. Because, as Rita soon learns, a serial killer is on the loose. And her love of animals might make her the next target... CW: violence, animal cruelty 16+ only Cover by @NishaPsons :)"I approve!" - Sera Drake, author of Ancilla "(hrb264) accurately describes what it means for a bull to be a victim of bullfighting. The physical pain, the fear, the agony. The bull's perspective is missing from most written bullfighting stories, making this book different and refreshing. For anyone who considers bullfighting a barbaric activity, this book also offers comfort. In addition, it is an exciting story that will keep you up until the last moment!" - Estefania Pampin Zuidmeer, campaigner CAS InternationalNow available on Amazon: https://mybook.to/82BK2En…

This is going to have random bonus content for SDT such as playlist, character guide, cover art and the like. Maybe the odd fanfic XD. I don't want to put all this in the main book because I don't like too much of this in other people's. So if you don't want to read it I won't take it personally. I'll be adding stuff as and when and not updating it religiously.…

10 years ago, Lou Jeffreys and Talisha Morton almost lost their lives fighting alongside rebel forces in the horrific Second English Civil War. They're only just putting their lives back together, making a go of it in a different country, speaking a different language, after having no choice but to leave after the catastrophic defeat the rebels suffered. It may be peaceful, but life's by no means easy, let alone 'normal'. And their old enemies haven't finished with them yet.…

How do you admit defeat, when defeat means abandoning everything you fought for, everything you loved. Leaving those you care about to their fate. But how could you stay and fight when to stay means certain death? The Damaged trilogy was always going to be a trilogy ... but I've somehow been persuaded to write book 2.5 ;) Coming in 2022 :)…

They said it wouldn't happen here. They were wrong. Fascism is coming to a street near you. Life in Wattleton is boring, dull and all too often dangerous. Unemployment is at an all time high. Money is scarce and jobs are even scarcer. There is no future. There is no hope. The British Patriotic Front will sort things out. Get the country back on its feet again. Restore the lost glory of the past. Unless, of course, you don't fit into their perfect world. When they seize power most people here don't think things can possibly get any worse. But it's not long before some in this town are left with a terrible choice. Resist or die.Damaged is Book 1 in a trilogy.…
