by Rebecca King


  The more time Perry spends in Camberwell, the more he begins to fear for Bettina’s safety. Can he locate who is behind the ghostly goings on around her home, preferably before they succeed in dragging her over to the afterlife? More importantly, can he persuade Bettina that she is better off focusing on the living, him, rather than the dead?

  Dead bodies, ghosts, claustrophobic fog, and murders abound in this haunting mystery thriller with one shocking final twist.

  DUPLICITY

  Divine Club Series – Book Two

  RELEASED NOVEMBER 2018

  When a very expensive race horse goes missing during a house party, all the guests are considered guilty. Gerrard suspects at least three people who have the right contacts to be able to make a horse vanish. Can he stop them from leaving, and taking their knowledge of the missing horse’s whereabouts with them?

  When nobody believes his suspicions have credibility, Gerrard calls upon his good friends of the Divine Club. With their help, he swiftly begins to suspect the culprit is the stunningly beautiful Brianne. But when she protests her innocence with a shockingly persuasive seduction, Gerrard forgets his doubts. Until he catches her sneaking about in the middle of the night and realises she has lied to him and, like everyone else at the house party, suspects he is behind the theft.

  Someone is lying. Determined to get to the truth, Gerrard refuses to let her out of his sight. But with danger lurking around every corner, he struggles to make any headway proving his innocence, especially when it appears someone is trying to frame him.

  While struggling against their lack of ability to trust each other, Gerrard and Brianne are drawn into a race against time to find out who is trying to make them both look guilty. The stakes become high when someone tries to kill Gerrard, not least because it swiftly becomes evident that Brianne’s life is also in danger.

  Can Gerrard persuade her to trust him? Or has placing his trust in Brianne been the worst mistake of his life; one what will leave him facing prison for a crime he hasn’t committed?

  The Divine Club, one of London’s leading private gentleman’s clubs, is a little boring. That is what several of its members think anyway - until one of their members is found dead, stabbed in the back by a decorative sword that had been hanging above the fireplace for years.

  The men in attendance at the time embark on a little detective work of their own to try to find the killer. But, when another body turns up, they face a race against time to prove their innocence and keep themselves alive.

  What none of them is prepared for is the daring adventures they are swiftly drawn into, and the surprising things they discover along the way. With a little help from a few wilful and adventurous ladies, the men are soon knee deep in trouble, and facing a series of crimes only the best of detectives can solve.

  With a little help from an unusual match-maker, the men’s lives are thrown into turmoil, especially when keeping their bachelorhood becomes just as difficult as catching the culprits behind the series of misadventures, murders, and mysteries which plague the Divine Club.

  TO LOVE AND LOVE AGAIN

  RELEASED – NOVEMBER 2018

  Edward’s marriage lies in pieces. His bitter regret is that he didn’t do more to save it before his wife leaves him. It is startling to realise that his wife is a total stranger, and he struggles to find a way to try to persuade her to come back. The Dorothea he married would never do something so brash and bold as to walk out on her marriage, but she had. Now what he supposed to do?

  Dorothea retreats to the rural tranquillity of the Lake District while she tries to decide what to do about her future. Divorce would be difficult, but can she bear to spend the rest of her life married to a man who is in love with someone else? Dorothea has done everything possible to be a dutiful wife, but it still wasn’t enough to persuade her husband to love her. What galls her the most is that somewhere along the way, she lost herself.

  With no idea what she wants anymore, Dorothea sets about re-discovering herself, and finds herself facing life alone and with a broken heart. The last thing she expects is for a suitor to appear in her life. Daniel is everything Dorothea had wanted in a husband prior to marrying Edward. The closer to gets to him, the more she realises just how cold her marriage with Edward has been. Although her head is telling her that Daniel will be able to provide her with happiness and security, if not a marriage certificate, her heart is unable to break free of Edward. She suspects a part of it will always belong to her husband. Can she still find a future for herself though?

  When Edward finds his wife in her lover’s arms, he is slammed with a possessiveness that makes him more determined than ever to get his wife back home where she belongs. Can he persuade her to court him; her husband? Is a man able to romance his own wife? Edward knows he must find out because a future without Dorothea is no future at all.
