Seoras, Cut the Wire
(2026)(The fourth book in the Seoras Macleod Mystery series)
A novel by G R Jordan
Nothing says "you're in trouble" quite like waking up zip-tied to a chair with a nation's fury aimed directly at you.
The match of the century ends not with a victory lap but with fire and screams. Hours later, former DCI Seoras Macleod and Jane find themselves zip-tied to chairs, facing stone-faced interrogators with a single devastating accusation: they orchestrated the bombing that has brought a nation to its knees.
Plunged into a nightmare of mistaken identity, the pair must somehow investigate a crime they didn't commit—from inside their own captivity. Every denial tightens the noose; every question reveals how meticulously they've been framed. When their friend Kirsten bulldozes her way into their predicament, hoping to free them, she instead becomes the final piece in their unlikely detective agency.
Together, this trapped trio must follow a trail of breadcrumbs left by the real perpetrators—a trail that weaves through nationalist extremism, government corruption, and old vendettas long thought buried. But in a high-stakes game where truth has become the most dangerous currency, proving their innocence might cost more than their freedom.
Three friends caught in a web of deception, one impossible deadline, and a nation on the brink of tearing itself apart.
Three sleuths, two days, one more bomb—and zero margin for error.
Genre: Mystery
