I’m delighted to announce that Constance, my latest crime thriller, is now available in digital format from Amazon. The paperback edition will be released soon.

Constance began her existence in a supporting role in Crusader, but soon evolved as much more than a female sidekick to the vigilante detective. Here was a young woman with a personal agenda, not too far removed from that of her personal idols, the members of the Beyond The Law (BTL) vigilante team.

Within the story, I’ve used brief selected passages from Codename: Foxglove, and Crusader. These scenes help to develop the tale and the main character, using a mixture of narrative and dialogue, but they’re not simply copied from the other two books. The chosen scenarios are reduced in content, and told from a different point of view.

This story is neither a prequel nor a sequel to Crusader, and is, in effect, an overlapping tale. We see how Constance proved her ability before she moved to London. We also gain an insight to her character while she’s working with Jason (Crusader), and how she operates when he leaves the Met. There’s no need to have read Crusader, however, I’m hoping that readers will be tempted to read about both member of this team in their own stories.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank my beta readers from the Indie Author Support and Discussion group, Ruth Coulson aka (Rebecca Bryn), Cherime MacFarlane and Barbara Speake.

Special thanks to Sharon Brownlie of Aspire Book Covers for her advice and assistance in improving my cover solution for Constance.

As always, comments are welcome, and thank you for reading.
