A collection of three crime fiction series starter novels by Brian L. Porter, Doug Lamoreux & Stuart Field, now available in one volume!
 
A Mersey Killing: In 1961 Liverpool, a group of aspiring musicians chase their dreams amidst the burgeoning Swinging Sixties. Meanwhile in 1999, skeletal remains discovered in the docklands ignite an investigation that spans generations. Detective Inspector Andy Ross and Sergeant Izzie Drake navigate a journey through time, delving into the early days of the influential Mersey Beat scene. But can they unravel the mystery of the long-lost woman and the bones hidden beneath the River Mersey for over three decades?
 
Corpses Say The Darndest Things: The death of a beloved Chicago televangelist’s wife is only the beginning; someone is homiciding their way through the Temple of Majesty Church. And private eye Nod Blake has been dumped in the middle of it all, on his head. The resulting injuries seem to have opened a door to the hereafter: Blake believes dead people are talking to him. But are the victims really begging the gumshoe for help from the other side of the grave? When his nemesis, Detective Lieutenant Wenders, finds evidence that Blake is the murderer, the private dick's life becomes a great big soup sandwich.
 
Steel And Shadows: After losing his family, former British Special Forces agent John Steel arrives in New York determined to locate the person captured in a photograph. NYPD detective Samantha McCall is investigating a triple homicide when Steel offers his assistance in tracking down the perpetrator. What initially seems like the work of a serial killer soon turns into a sinister labyrinth of deception. With ruthless mercenaries, enigmatic informants, and haunting echoes from their pasts, the unlikely duo must navigate a treacherous web of betrayal in order to bring the perpetrator to justice.

Through Windows In The Sky I Fall

JL MARTIN

Molly Mae has embarked on a new journey in the opposite direction of where she'd once been heading and was unknowingly predestined to go due to the sins of her forefathers. Leaving behind the small town in rural Victoria where she was born, she relocates to Melbourne to start a new life. Having battled substance abuse for a decade and haunted by her own secrets and demons, she is determined to make a fresh start away from the scandal of her father's arrest, gaining him the notorious title of the country's most prolific serial killer. 
  
Within hours of arriving at her new building, Molly finds herself the sole witness to a murder, setting off a chain reaction that brings up old wounds and the shocking realisation that no matter how far you run, you can never truly escape the past—or the ties that bind through blood, generational sin and soul connections. 
  
James Cavanaugh, now a Detective Sergeant in the homicide squad, is head of the Taskforce responsible to investigate what initially appears to be an open and shut case, but a new wave of killings centred in Molly's building sends them on a heart-stopping race against time in this intense psychological thriller that will have you guessing right until the very last page. 
  
'Through Windows In The Sky I Fall' is the first novel in this exciting new contemporary crime trilogy 'Spawned Of Sin', exploring the powerful ties that bind through blood, generational sin and soul connections by J L Martin, author of the epic Australian historical fantasy fiction series, 'Samsara- The First Season'.

Thursday at Noon - a Middle East...

William F. Brown

Treachery and double-dealing are the rule in this spy vs spy thriller. Exciting, and Fast Paced. 
A dead Mossad agent, Nazi rocket scientists, the Moslem Brotherhood, a corrupt American ambassador, and two missing Egyptian tank regiments – somebody’s trying to start another Arab-Israeli war. 
Richard Thomson is a burnt-out CIA agent who the Agency dumped in Egypt because they couldn’t think of a worse place to send him. Already gnawed on by Langley and set-up by the Cairo police, his day can't get much worse, until someone leaves a dead body on the rear steps of his hotel with its head lopped off like a ripe melon. 
A message? No doubt about it. While the world focuses on Russian missiles in Cuba, no one notices the ones being rolled out in the Egyptian desert pointed at Israel, no one, except Thomson. 
Like Night of the Generals, this is a murder mystery wrapped inside an international political thriller. Tick Toc, Tick Toc, it's all going to start at Noon on Thursday, unless Thompson can stop them.
