A five star review for Final Justice.

5.0 out of 5 stars even better than book 1!, 17 Mar 2011 By  This review is from: Final Justice (A Lorne Simpkins thriller) (Kindle Edition) Final Justice is the sequel to the excellent Impeding Justice where we first meet DI Lorne Simpkins who is attempting to apprehend the killer called the unicorn. With the end of Impeding Justice it was obvious that there would be a sequel, and what a sequel it is! In my view, this book is better than the first book in the series for a number of reasons. Most importantly, Mel¡¦s writing seems to have slowed down somewhat since book one, she¡¦s trying to cram less in and the overall book benefits from that. The fact that there is slightly less edge-of-your seat action in this book means that the violence, when it does come, is somehow all the more shocking. I felt that Mel flushed out her characters a lot more in this book and I really began to care for Lorne by the end of the book.
All in all, a great second book from a superb new author. º

Brings joy to one's heart.

The sun is shining and everything is good.

Wow, the sun shone brightly for the first time in ages today in France. It's days like these that we should feel happy to be alive.

Completed another few chapters editing of Cruel Intent this morning. It's going really well so far. Just about to go offline and tap away on the laptop for another couple of hours before turning in.

Hopefully should be ready to upload late April/early May fingers crossed. Have a couple of beta readers casting their eyes over it now.

Oh well, best get on, have a great day.

Another five star review,.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exciting, action-packed detective story., 4 Mar 2011 By A female cop has obvious appeal and the early stages of the book bring her to the fore very well. There's a fair dose of violence in the story, graphic violence on occasions, which may not suit all tastes, but it's never excessive or gratuitous. There's murder, kidnap, a plausible and deeply flawed villain - all the elements of a satisfying thriller.
Very enjoyable, will definitely be reading the next book in the series.

I feel very close to Lorne and I'm pleased she's proved so popular in Impeding Justice. I hope readers will be just as happy with Final Justice."As well as being an author, Mel Comley also writes a column on gardening in French ex-pat online magazine called N4Normandy.

All I can say is, it's taken me 3 hrs from start to finish with no breaks, it's absolutely amazing!The book takes off from the sequel seamlessly, held me in my seat and I feel exhausted! It is so good!My only problem now is, I will have to wait a while for a new book from your oh so talented brain and fingers!
I will do a review for you ASAP,
Once again, Thank you so very much, I feel very humbled but, also very proud to have read your latest Masterpiece for that is what it is.
