The Lock - review copies available

I have review copies of my new cosy murder mystery story, The Lock , available.

"You have to help me. She’s going to kill my father."

Perry reluctantly gets embroiled in a murder investigation when a young girl begs him for help.

But Rose is not the only one seeking his legendary lockpicking skills.

Shadowy characters from his past have a bargain for him: will he accept their terms for Rose’s sake
