Default The Blake Harte Mysteries

Ladies and gents, I am proud and very excited to announce the upcoming release of my first novel, Untouchable! It’ll be available on Amazon from the 22nd November to download or you can buy it in paperback form. The best thing? It’s only 99p. I’ll post more links, details and invitations to my new Facebook group in the coming days but in the meantime, here is the front cover and synopsis.



Harrison Baxter lives on a farm with his parents, on the outskirts of the village of Harmschapel. It’s picturesque, idyllic and tranquil – but Harrison is far from happy. His parent’s marriage is strained to say the least and on top of that, his boyfriend, Daniel, has been mentally and physically abusing him for years. After he finds himself with one bruise too many, Harrison has had enough. But when he plucks up the courage to finally end his violent relationship, Harrison’s life is changed forever when Daniel is found murdered in the most bizarre circumstances.

Detective Sergeant Blake Harte has moved to Harmschapel after his own relationship ended in tatters. But moving to a quiet village after working his way up the ranks in a city brings its own set of problems and Blake soon finds himself at odds with new colleagues who aren’t used to his style of policing. But when he is called upon to investigate the mysterious and impossible murder at Halfmile Farm, Blake finds himself facing the most challenging case of his career.

So how can Daniel have been shot in a locked shed that nobody could possibly have escaped from?
Is anybody really Untouchable?

It's totally awesome that you've written your own book! The cover looks cool and it sounds like a really interesting storyline.

I have to be honest though in that it might not be the greatest thing called Untouchable written this century



(will listening to this on loop enhance or distract the reading of it?)
