Sinossi

"
"Terrific and one of the best books I have read this year." Mark Ellis
The Great Freeze of 1963. A brutal reckoning for the residents of Glanmorfa, caught in the grip of an ancient curse. Or so it appears to Daphne Morgan and her friends who, attempting to navigate the confusing currents of the adult world, find themselves engulfed in mysteries far deeper and more painful than they expected.
An enthralling thriller about memory and the power of imagination…
"This coming-of-age murder mystery, set in an estuary town in south-west Wales, is a must-read for anyone who relishes a compelling page turner."  Jane Frase

    The Detective has been a mainstay of fiction writing ever since we can remember.   
    Their deductive powers, their intuition and fleet-footed grasp of every detail can often turn the unlikeliest situation, or bunch of red herrings, into a breakthrough to capture even the most ingenious and dastardly of criminals. 
    In this series our classic authors explore not only various themes, such as Occult Detectives, Female Detectives, Curious Crimes and a whole host more, but also bring a range and depth to the whole culture of criminality as we send in the Long Arm of the Law to bring justice on behalf of the society it serves. 
    In this volume our intrepid sleuths are involved in cracking open some very curious crimes.

    What happens when the star quarterback recognizes the new sports reporter as a weekend fling from college, only to meet her five-year-old son with blue eyes like his? 
    Declan Scott, star quarterback for the Rocky Mountain Rangers and heir to his family’s football team, has the perfect life. Money, star-power, and gorgeous women aplenty, with the football season going well and a championship ring teasing his future, nothing will divert him from the road to success. Nothing. 
    Five years ago, studious Amelia Pruitt did something out of character—she blew off steam by going to a party where she was charmed out of her panties by the star quarterback. They spent an amazing weekend together doing things she’d only read about in books, but once Monday came it was back to finals and Christmas break. A few months later, when she learned she was pregnant, her star quarterback was on the cover of a national sports magazine. She couldn’t derail his career, choosing not to tell him and raising their child on her own. 
    Now she’s got the opportunity of a lifetime to use her journalism degree and write for the Spring City Gazette on the home team and their star. She’ll be face-to-face with the father of her child, but when he doesn’t remember her, she knows she made the right call, and feels confident she can bring their child to a family fun event at the stadium. 
    Imagine her surprise when he does remember. 
    Imagine his surprise when he meets a precocious five-year-old with bright blue eyes—just like his. 
    How does the quarterback sneak into his ready made family’s heart?
