Deadly Determination
I now have an official launch date of 20th June!
I'll be holding a 5 day event (20th-25th June 2015) where you'll be able to order through my website www.ian-d-jackson.com and get your hands on a signed 1st Edition!
When experienced DI Karen Bellows accepts a transfer to the Matrix Serious and Organised Crime Investigation Team based in Liverpool she unwittingly steps into a world where honesty is not necessarily synonymous with the truth.
Before she’s had time to meet her new team a couple are found brutally murdered among the dunes at Southport beach and she’s catapulted into an investigation hampered by deceit and betrayal.
In the face of a violent and ruthless killer Bellows’ frustration boils over into panic as the hunt leads to a series of confusing dead ends.
When her own life and the future she’s built is threatened who can she trust?

Very excited...
I feel extremely blessed that I managed to finish my second book (Dead Precious - maybe!) in the sixteen weeks that I allotted for myself...I'm a bit of a hard taskmaster when it comes to me; a huge softy when it comes to everyone else! Anyway, the books finished and with my publisher (Percy Publishing) and they tell me it should be available for pre-order in May and then physically out in June...what a thrill!
