Release day for Cold Case. Only 99c/99p.

Yippee! It's release day at last for the third book in the DI Sally Parker thriller series.

DI Sally Parker has been handed a ten-year-old cold case. However, the victim, Aisha Thomas, isn't just a member of the public--she's a serving police officer's wife.

During the original investigation, the suspects disappeared before they could be questioned. Now fresh evidence has been uncovered, proving the two suspects to be innocent. Sally has to start over at the beginning. She uncovers a few surprises that were either overlooked. . . or purposefully ignored by the original investigator.

When the case threatens Sally's fledgling romantic relationship with pathologist Simon Bracknall, she begins to suspect someone is determined to hinder her chance at happiness--as well as solving Aisha's murder.

Is Sally getting close to revealing the killer or has she stumbled across something even more sinister?

Review

I feel this is MA Comley's best book to date. Just to give you an idea: I lost my reading mojo for well over a month and when I picked this book up, my mojo returned! I read it in one sitting.
I loved seeing Sally's character develop throughout the course of the book. The plot was brilliantly thought out and kept me guessing. - Aisha

  All in all another really great book to add to this author's already stonking back catalogue. Bring on the next one, I even don't mind which series it may be. They're all brilliant! - Kath Brink 

Cold Case is a page turner of a read that had a totally unexpected outcome. I love how the author always manages to keep something up her sleeve to shock and surprise her readers. Only problem is that the author always leaves me desperate for more as I just can't get enough of her books. - Sarah Hardy

From start to finish I was HOOKED the only down side was it finished.... Michelle Baldwin

To say I loved this book would be an understatement. I personally feel it is the best the author has written to date.  - Julie Simon

 Another brilliant book in the Sally Parker series which leaves you guessing right to the very end. I love the way the author brings the characters to life with an insight into their personal lives including Sally's beloved dog. - Annette

Book reading does not get any better than this!!! This is such an in depth read as this author weaves her magic once again. I was truly hooked with the intensity & speed that DI Sally Parker, her partner Jack Blackman & the rest of her hardworking team worked at solving a cold case. - Felicity

A fast paced and gripping storyline that kept me guessing right until the shocking end. - Sue McQuaide Kitt

I devoured this book! M.A. Comley knows her craft and I throughly enjoyed the cold case element to this story.  - Bestselling author Tara Lyons

I absolutely loved this book - a fabulous book. - Leona

I even read this book a second time to see where I missed the vital clue, the link to the mystery. However, there are many suspects, turns and twist.....just when you think you have solved the Cold Case....Great job Mel Comley! - Diane Waters   

Mel Comley's books are always so easy to read and once you pick one up its hard to put it down till you've read it. I started and finished this book within a matter of hours and love how the characters are all evolving in this series. - Teresa

Seems as though the action never stops, and as a mystery reader, that is a very, very good thing. Cold Case just keeps you guessing from page to page, until the ultimate revelations are uncovered at the end. - Mary

Another belter of a book from this talented author. Fantastic characters and storyline. - Craig Gillan 

This is one of my favourite books by Mel Comley so far. Sally is a fantastic character, as are the others. - Audrey

New Release - Torn Apart

I'm thrilled to tell you that I've just released the first book in the Hero Series.

Everyone understands about the no-go districts--areas of the city so overrun with gang violence even the police stay away. In this book, the first in a new series, DI Hero Nelson sets out to combat the issue.

When Saskia Hartley and her nine-year-old son are run down outside a restaurant, DI Nelson knows it is no ordinary hit-and-run incident. He's looking at a homicide case... and the evidence points to the brutal Krull Gang. When two prostitutes are murdered, but little interest is given to the women on the Krull's payroll, Nelson connects the dots. DI Nelson has to decide whether he's dealing with a turf war or something far more sinister.

 To celebrate the release of Torn Apart, Cruel Justice the first book of six in the Justice series is on offer for only US $0.99 or UK 49p.

I hope you enjoy this new thrilling series, be warned though, it's not for the faint-hearted.

My week in a nutshell!

Well, as you probably know we're in the middle of renovating our French farmhouse at the moment. Since last August we've plasterboarded/dry walled and everything else that has been needed in six rooms. We're in the final stretch now, the master bedroom ensuite and dressing room should be completed in the next week or so. It's been hard work but we've thoroughly enjoyed the challenge, however, we've decided to leave the kitchen renovations until later on in the year, until our backs are better and our hands have recovered. 

During the renovations I've been amazed that I've still managed to write three thrillers, two in the Justice series, Guaranteed and Ultimate Justice and also the first book in a brand new series titled Torn Apart. Maybe that shows how determined I am to succeed at this writing lark.

It's been a very exciting week for me this week in other ways too. A couple of weeks ago I pulled the Justice series out of Amazon's exclusive scheme called Select. As a Brit, living in France, I'm unable to upload my books direct to the other major sites such as, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and iTunes, instead I have to upload through a new site I've discovered which acts as a go-between called Draft2Digital. Boy, am I glad I came away from Smashwords, D2D have been wonderful and bent over backwards sorting out any problems I've had with my books on these sites. 

This week I advertised Foul Justice at the reduced price of $0.99 and it romped up the B&N chart to #13, which I was over the moon about but then something very bizarre happened. The first book in the series, my best-selling thriller Cruel Justice suddenly took off on B&N too and shot up to #21 in the chart, instead of dropping however Cruel Justice has remained in the top #100 for the past four days.

Imagine my surprise to wake up to someone sharing a link on my Facebook page for this article on GalleyCat, in which Cruel Justice is named as one of the must read mysteries for April on the B&N site. Foul Justice and Cruel Justice are both named in the best-selling Indie list for April at #4 and #9 on Barnes and Noble GalleyCat BestSellers List and Foul Justice was named at #10 on iTunes also.

At this moment I'm feeling more than a little shell-shocked as you can understand.

What a year it has been, I'm physically and emotionally exhausted but elated beyond words at the same time.

Thank you to everyone for their support since this incredible journey began. It doesn't get better than this folks if you're an Indie author, and I'm without doubt proudly one of those.

Go Indies!
