The eighth instalment in J J Salkeld's best-selling Lakeland Murders series is a novella, featuring a recently retired (and now pram-pushing) Andy Hall, as well as DI Jane Francis and DS Ian Mann. Blunt and blackly humorous CSI Sandy Smith is on hand once again, and Ray Dixon returns to the fray. Set in an era of continuing cut backs, Hall becomes involved in a Quixotic attempt to prove the innocence of a Whitehaven man convicted years before of murdering his wife, before dumping her body in Crummock Water. And when another woman is strangled to death in the town, Hall and DI Francis begin to wonder if the cases could be connected? Told with Salkeld's usual blend of gritty humour and social observation, Delayed & Denied casts a sharp, sideways glance at the dispensation of justice in difficult times. Five star reader reviews of earlier books in the Lakeland Murders series include: 'As usual JJ has written what could be called a "very knowledgeable" account of what policing is all about. Look forward to Jane's return and Andy's baby lessons.' 'As with books 1-6, this (Mortal Men) was a well written, brilliant story.....Loved it! Roll on the next book!' 'Yet another superb read in this series of books. Keeps the tension going right until the end, and again set against the unfolding life behind the main characters. If you haven't read any of these novels, start at the beginning...you'll end up buying them all!' Views: 20
RavenThe last thing I want is to get tangled in my sister’s way of life. We share blood but we couldn't be more different. I'm into books, art, and music while she's a stripper and motorcycle club whore. I've vowed to stay as far away from that life as I can, but Gage, the club's sexy President has set his sights on me. From our very first meeting he made his intention clear – he wants me in his bed. Well, he put it a little more crudely. He’s a foul-mouthed, arrogant, domineering, infuriating biker who just wants to use my body but I can’t help my attraction to him. Even if I wanted to give in to him, I can’t. He's off limits. No matter how much I want him, I can never have him. He's forbidden. GageI'm the President of the Death Dealers MC. My road name is Reaper. Wanna guess how I got it? Yeah, no one messes with me. I live for my club, my family, and getting chicks. I don’t do relationships. Women throw themselves at me, and if they're lucky, I'll give them a couple orgasms and a life-long memory. It’s easy. That is, until I met Raven. I wanted her the moment I saw her but I can’t have her – at least not yet. She’s different from the women I’m used to and I’m caught between wanting her and not wanting to corrupt her. I should stay away from her but how can I? They say forbidden fruit is the sweetest and I’m dying for a taste. Views: 20
Something is wrong with dreams.
The Demon of Dreams is missing, and it’s up to the newly-bound Dragon Guard and dragon duo of Ben and Andi to find the demon and make things right. They may have succeeded in defeating a demon-infused necromancer, but now they must test their still-growing powers against an entire demon syndicate bent on destroying reality.
If that wasn't enough, an ancient prophecy, written about the pair eons ago, claims they could become evil and enslave the multiverse. They would ignore it as hogwash if it weren't for the intense anger growing inside Ben. If he and his rapidly expanding powers can't control that burning fire, they fear the evil part of the prophecy may indeed come true.
Can they successfully navigate the Realm of Nightmares and defeat the Nightmare Syndicate? Can they restore the Demon of Dreams to its rightful spot in the pantheon? Can they stop the anger from engulfing Ben and turning them evil?
And can they do it all before Winter Break at high school ends?
NOTE: This book was originally published in 2015 by Hunt Press with a different cover. This is no longer a Hunt Press publication. I've made a few minor changes in the text, but nothing changed plot or structure-wise. If you already own Dragon Dreams, there is no need to purchase this edition.
