A Cornish Malice –
Luxury yacht tycoon Silas Venning is dead, hanging from a tree in a desolate Cornish wood, and the whole county is reeling. Was it suicide—or something far darker? His widow, the celebrated artist Laura Anstey, is convinced Silas was murdered and pleads with Loveday to uncover the truth. But as Loveday digs deeper, she’s drawn into a web of secrets that threatens to consume her. When a key suspect is killed in a hit-and-run, Loveday must face the terrifying possibility that her own partner, DI Sam Kitto, may be involved. Can she trust the man she loves, or is he the killer she’s hunting?
A Cornish Betrayal -
When Loveday, a sharp-witted magazine editor, inherits a derelict cottage perched on a remote Cornish cliff, she’s thrilled. But her excitement is short-lived when a young man vanishes without a trace from his boat on a nearby creek. With the missing man being a close friend of her pals, Keri and Ben, Loveday is pulled into the mystery. But what begins as a search for answers soon escalates into a menacing affair that threatens everyone she holds dear.
As she digs deeper, she finds herself entangled in a web of danger that spirals out of control. With each clue she uncovers, it becomes increasingly clear that her involvement isn’t just risky—it’s deadly.
Her intentions to stay clear of her detective boyfriend Sam’s investigation are unravelling fast. Loveday is slowly being drawn into a nightmare.
A Cornish Deception -
The lamps cast pools of sallow yellow, too dim to reveal the shadowy shape hovering on the threshold. The story of the night begins to unfold. Someone is about to die.
Antiques auctions were a complete mystery to Loveday, but her boss, magazine proprietor, Merrick Tremayne, really wanted the 16th century bible box. So she'd asked her friend, Priddy, to put in the winning bid. But now the box was gone - stolen during a break-in at her office. It's not Loveday's only worry. She offers to spend the night alone in a caravan that her friend claims is haunted…by a ghost who is stealing her treasures. Loveday's policeman boyfriend, Sam, objects, but she ignores him. When strange things begin to happen, and Loveday discovers a body in the night, she wishes she had listened to Sam. it’s a horror, from which there might be no escape.
A Cornish Ransom -
A man's body is pulled from the river in Inverness as the cathedral bells ring in a new year. The last thing Loveday and Sam want is for a murder to spoil their holiday in Scotland. But fate takes a hand. The man is Cornish, and events pursue them back to Cornwall where a major search is taking place to find a prominent missing businessman. When Sam realises the two could be connected, he and Loveday are plunged into a mystery that grows more complicated by the hour. The riddle deepens when suspicion grows over a previous death initially thought to have been an accident.
