Beatrice Stubbs of Scotland Yard: detective inspector, metaphor mixer and stubborn survivor.
Battling crime by day and her own demons by night, the question is always the same.
Justice or the law?
Behind Closed Doors sees Beatrice seconded to Switzerland. Wealthy, powerful men are committing suicide. Or are they? When the same DNA is found at each scene, DI Stubbs suspects someone is dispensing a personal retribution. Beneath the chocolate and charm, Zurich hides many secrets.
In Raw Material, Beatrice is divided. Hunting a sex offender on London Underground while trying to investigate illegal activity on a Welsh beach stretches her to her limits. Her partner and neighbour decide to assist. But amateur detectives and professional criminals make a bad mix.
Time for a sabbatical in Tread Softly. A gourmet trip to the north of Spain is exactly what DI Stubbs needs. Until she meets an old acquaintance who lures her into an investigation. Beatrice is up to her neck in missing persons, murder, corruption and Rioja.
Beatrice Stubbs murder mysteries are contemporary crime novels with a timeless feel. The focus is on human interest and strong personalities.

Books 1 - 2 of the pulsating Jake Tanner terror thriller series: Standstill and Floor 68.
BOOK 1: STANDSTILL
In the oppressive London summer heat, two brothers orchestrate the deadliest terror attack the city has ever seen. Three airport-bound trains are brought to a standstill with thousands held hostage. And when the dust settles, the Metropolitan Police are left scrambling for solutions.
The terrorists promise to let hostages go, but first Detective Jake Tanner must play his part in their twisted games. The rules are simple--follow them, and no one gets hurt. Break them, and the consequences will be fatal. But when he discovers the identity of one of the passengers, Jake realises this isn't just about saving hostages.
Battling a faceless figure who's appointed himself God, Jake must save the passengers before the city descends into utter mayhem.
But how far will he go? Will he save everyone in time? And will he like the chilling truth he learns along the way?
BOOK 2: FLOOR 68
Jake Tanner is tormented by memories of the people he's failed to save. Hoping to give his spinning mind a break, the detective treats his wife and kids to a fancy meal in London's tallest building. He never expected that his family time would be cut short by a biological terrorist...
Cut off from outside help and struggling with his PTSD, Jake may be the only man who can save the hostages and thwart the horrific attack. As a deadly game of cat-and-mouse begins, the detective must conquer his own demons to outwit a deranged mastermind. If he fails, the airborne pathogen's devious purpose will decimate humanity's future.
Can Jake defeat a savage psychopath before the bomb annihilates humankind?

The violent death shocks fellow passengers of the Empress Louise, a grand cruise liner packed with British tourists. DI Beatrice Stubbs flies to Greece to assist. When another lady is killed in her cabin, terror spreads like contagion. Murder is aboard and someone has Beatrice in his sights. Revenge is a dish best served cold.

When DI Beatrice Stubbs is dispatched to Germany to investigate art theft, Adrian seizes the chance to flee the city. Yet the stalker is still on his heels. Adrian runs from danger to the remote island of Sylt. But danger follows and Adrian has run too far.

Until one of her colleagues is murdered. An eclectic alliance of international detectives forms to find the assassin. But are they really on the same side? Meanwhile, tensions rise at the holiday villa. A clash of egos sours the atmosphere and when a five-year-old child disappears, their idyll turns hellish. Trust can be a fatal mistake.

Daniel Knox is the CIA analyst repeatedly placed on the frontlines of international espionage. From war-torn Afghanistan to cosmopolitan France, join the twisty ride to keep America safe--no matter the cost.
This omnibus contains the first, second, and third thrillers:
The Greatest Game: When CIA analyst Daniel Knox makes a startling discovery, he's willing to do whatever it takes to neutralize the threat. But Daniel is a linguist, not a soldier, so he doesn't expect to find himself in the line of fire.
Daniel soon finds himself thrust into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse on foreign soil with the lives of millions of families at stake. Out of options, and out of his depth, he must survive a maze of deception to outsmart America's enemies.
The Missing Spy: When hunting in foreign lands, Daniel is unsure if he is the cat or the mouse in a game of deception. Leads turn up dead, Daniel may be next, and America's most sensitive secrets are at stake.
But even if Daniel thinks he catches the mole, has he?
Or, does the mole just want him to think that?
The Spymaster: Daniel Knox works for the CIA to hunt terrorists, but when spies turn up dead in Washington D.C., Daniel discovers that he and his family are next.
But the Spymaster thirsts for more than revenge.
At play is America's top-secret submarine technology. If compromised, America will be at the mercy of her enemies.
Can Daniel stop the Russian Spymaster from bringing America to her knees?
The clock is ticking for Daniel, his loved ones, and for America.
