Reviews

“This is the second book in the Coffin Cove series and it's even better than the first . . . I am really enjoying this series and looking forward to the next book.” Barbara
“Really good mystery including a wiiiiiiiiide range of characters, few of whom you can be really sure of. Leaves you wanting more.” Paul
“Very talented author. I can't get enough of the story.” Sasha
“Heart-racing, action-packed, race against time for fear of what diabolical atrocities might be next has the pages flying by until the dynamite finish. I couldn’t put the book down and lost sleep just to get to the end.” Kirsty
“This one seems to have it all . . . murder, intrigue, mystery, a little humor, a little romance. It's a fast-paced mystery with more than one body falling. The clever plot is filled with skillfully drawn characters, but beware . . . there are a lot of twists and turns that lead to an explosive conclusion.” Booklover
