charlie_cochrane | Charlie's latest news: read with pride! (Reply)

Summertime...and the reading is easy.

OK, it's more like winter here in the UK, but that's an even better excuse for snuggling up with some of the corking reads available at the Read with Pride event. Delighted to say it includes In the Spotlight with its smashing new cover.

Don't forget that the latest Lindenshaw romantic cosy mystery, "And Nothing But the Truth", is out now on all the usual sites where you get your books! (First time I've used a universal link, so please let me know if it's gone screwy.)

Some truths don’t set you free.

The pandemic may be winding down, but for Chief Inspector Robin Bright, life never really goes back to normal. One second, he’s having breakfast with his adorable husband—and their equally adorable Newfoundland, Hamish—and the next, he gets the dreaded call: a body’s been found. What initially appears to be a mugging gone wrong turns out to be murder, and Robin is on the case.

Adam Matthews is happy to act as a sounding board—much as he tries not to get involved—but when Robin’s case intersects with a mystery from within their own family, he’s embroiled whether he likes it or not. Loquacious genealogists, secret pregnancies, and a potentially dubious inheritance all ensure that Adam won’t be doing his hundred-and-one headteacher tasks in peace anytime soon.

Lies pile onto lies, and the more the story changes, the more the killer is revealed. Without proof, however, Robin and his team are powerless, and the murderer isn’t the only one with something to hide. But Robin won’t stop until he’s found the whole truth, and nothing but.

Love

Charlie
