A Summer Shadow
By H L Marsay
This summer, as the city of York swelters in a heatwave, it appears revenge is still a dish best served cold…
Chief Inspector Shadow’s relaxing afternoon watching a game of cricket is interrupted when a body is discovered in the scorer’s hut. The victim is a retired clerk, who lived a quiet life. Initially the brutal murder appears random, but a search of the victim’s house reveals more questions than answers. When a skeleton with a crushed skull is discovered hidden in an abandoned building associated with the victim, Shadow speculates there could be a connection. If so, someone wanted to settle a score.
John Shadow is a man of contradictions. A solitary figure who shuns company but is a keen observer of all he meets. A lover of good food, but whose fridge is almost always empty. He prefers to work alone but is assisted by the eager Sergeant Jimmy Chang.
Now the two men must delve into the past and discover if this latest murder victim is as innocent as they first appear.
The Pawn
By John David
When TV reporter Pete Lemaster gets an after-hours call from a college friend, he doesn’t expect it to catapult him into another big story in his reporting career. Scott “Uncle Scotty” Wilkins—a globe-trotting, charismatic businessman—has been arrested at a Singapore airport with enough drugs to guarantee a life sentence.
The case explodes into an international spectacle. Viral images of Scotty charm the public, fuel conspiracy theories, and attract opportunists eager to profit from the scandal. For Pete, it’s personal—he owes the family a favor. But pursuing the truth could compromise his career.
Teaming up with police lieutenant Rebecca Dawes, Pete follows a trail that leads from glossy boardrooms to Singapore’s prisons. Every clue exposes another enemy: betrayed lovers, vengeful spouses, shady investors, and rivals with millions at stake.
But the closer Pete gets to uncovering who framed his friend, the more he realizes he may be the next pawn in a deadly game of deception.
If you enjoy journalist-sleuth mysteries like The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, you’ll be hooked on The Lemaster Files!
