BOOK 1: NOOSE FOR A LADY
Margaret Hallam has been sentenced to death for the murder of her husband, John, in a supposed open-and-shut case. But Margaret swears she’s innocent and so does her stepdaughter, Jill. Enter Simon Gale, an old friend of Margaret’s, determined to clear her name. Gale learns John was an unpleasant man who had made many enemies. But which of them had reason to kill him? With the clock ticking down to the day of her execution, can Gale find the real killer and save his friend from the noose?
BOOK 2: SORCERER’S HOUSE
In the pretty English village of Ferncross, Threshold House has long stood empty. But a light has just been seen in the windows. The last two times this happened two people suffered violent deaths. Then the body of the owner, Paul Meriton, is discovered outside the house, underneath the lit window — his skull smashed in. As Simon Gale investigates the three murders connected to Threshold House, he uncovers a tangle of secrets and betrayals beneath Ferncross’s idyllic façade. But which of the villagers is a killer?
BOOK 3: THE SNARK WAS A BOOJUM
Simon Gale is spending his retreat at Hunter’s Meadow in the peaceful countryside of Lower Bramsham. But a dinner party disrupts his quiet time. He was only jesting when he referred to ‘Hunting of the Snark’ around the dinner table, but then William Baker, part of their party, is found brutally stabbed to death. The killer was clearly at the table that night. As Gale digs further, he discovers that all his fellow guests had a motive for murder. Who is next? And is Gale on the hit list too?”
