Up and running again

Wow, has it really been two years since I've updated my blog? Apparently it has. My excuse, I've been writing solidly in that time. For the past eighteen months or so I've endured a punishing schedule of writing and publishing a book a month. Hard to believe and no easy task I can tell you, especially while caring for my 83 year-old mother.

Anyway, now I've finally settled into a routine, I'll be keeping up to date with my blog in the future, I promise. :-)

I'm reading far more books now that life has been turned upside down by this blasted virus which, let's face it, has affected the whole damn world. So many lives unnecessarily taken from us because of something that originated from China. :-(

That's enough about that, my fans have been telling me they've also been reading more during the pandemic, more out of the need to escape the reality of what has plagued and impacted our lives over the past three to four months.

It'll be good to get back to normal, hoping that's just around the corner for some of us, I'm fed up with cooking and in dire need for a meal out, cooked by someone else. LOL

Here's a picture of the man in my life, Dex, enjoying a walk down by the River Wye, without taking him out daily during the crisis, I think I would have lost my mind. :-)

13th Victim - new release

It's a happy release day to Linda S Prather. Here's my review of this stunning read.



Linda Prather has done it again. She’s created a stunning mystery that is character driven and full of intrigue.

Ten years ago Andi Carter was tortured for days by her lover’s partner, Richard Thomas. When she was rescued she lost everything- the man she loved and her job as an investigative reporter along with some of her memory from around the time she was abducted.

Depressed and often seeking solace at the bottom of a whiskey glass, she’s snatched from her stupor when a young girl reaches out for help through the classified ads of the newspaper where she now works.

What unfolds is a blood curdling tale of a dozen young girl’s bodies buried beneath concrete. A 13th Victim will do all she can to survive, including murder.

A fast-paced mystery about vengeance and righting wrongs of the other twelve victims.

Loved the characters and the pace of this page-turning mystery. A cracking addition to Linda’s other stunning novels.


Be sure to pick up your copy of this belter of a thriller at the introductory price of only 99c/99p from  Amazon All Stores

Review of Linda S Prather's latest legal thriller.








I had the pleasure of reading an ARC of Linda S Prather's new legal thriller, Beyond A Reasonable Doubt which is available on pre-order now and due for release on April 17th. Not long now!

I believe I have to be Linda's number one fan, to me her writing is seamless and flows wonderfully. Her ability to involve the reader in her stories is second to none. 

After reading Beyond A Reasonable Doubt - the first book in a new series of legal thrillers starring Assistant DA Jenna James - I have to say this is Linda's best book yet. 

Jenna is a kick-ass Assistant DA caught up with a corrupt family headed up by of all people a former judge. Jenna gets entangled in a messy family web of deceit in which an innocent member of the family has been imprisoned for twenty-five years. When a member of the young man's family is killed in an accident, he is released from prison into Jenna's custody to attend the funeral, and that's where this fast-paced, non-stop thriller really begins.

You'll love all the twists and turns and the convincing characters, both good and bad, in this compelling, taut thriller. 


Can't wait for the second book in the series which I believe is being written now.
