Overview

PI, Carlos Jacobi is on the trail of a ruthless killer after three men are found dead following an illegal camping party...

When three men are found dead near to the ruins of Bradgate House, birthplace of Lady Jane Grey, the evidence points towards accidental deaths following drugs overdoses. The wives of the men don't believe their husbands took drugs and are determined to find out what really happened. They club together to hire Carlos to investigate.

Carlos encounters suspicion, rumour and legend in another complex case where unravelling motives is not too hard to find, but it's hard to know who is telling the truth among the growing list of suspects...

He's thrown into turmoil again when the man in charge turns out to be his nemesis, DCI Terry Masters. The only good thing about the case is that despite the challenges he gets to work with down-to-earth detective sergeant Fiona Cook once more.

Carlos has another reason for being in Leicester. He's trying to track down a mysterious man responsible for organised crime after ending a dog theft racket in the Home Counties. His tenacity may just get him into more trouble than he bargained for as well as putting himself and others in danger.

She is author of the Rachel Prince Mystery series, a hugely popular cozy mystery series combining a unique blend of murder, cruising and medicine with a touch of romance. She has two other fictional series on the go. Her latest ventures are the Carlos Jacobi series and the Lady Marjorie Snellthorpe Mysteries. Carlos is a PI and his sidekick is Fiona Cook, a troubled, but likeable detective sergeant. The Lady Marjorie Snellthorpe Mysteries begins with the prequel Death of a Blogger. Ms Brookes has a 39 year nursing pedigree and has travelled extensively throughout her life. Nowadays, she loves cruise holidays and says she should do more for research purposes! Dawn brings her passion for cruises, animals and engaging characters along with a love of clean crime to her writing. The surname of the Rachel Prince protagonist is in honour of her childhood dog, 'Prince', who used to put his head on her knee while she lost herself in books. Dawn is also author of a series of memoirs. Hurry up Nurse: memoirs of nurse training in the 1970s, Hurry up Nurse 2: London calling and Hurry up Nurse 3. Dawn worked as a hospital nurse, midwife, district nurse and community matron across a thirty-nine year year career. Before turning her hand to writing for a living, she had multiple articles published in professional journals and co-edited a nurse textbook. She grew up in Leicester where her second Carlos Jacobi Book is based, later moving to London and Berkshire but now lives in Derbyshire. Dawn holds a bachelors degree with honours in community health studies, a Masters degree in education as well as her MA in Creative Writing. Writing across genres, Dawn also writes for children. Dawn has a passion for nature and loves animals, especially dogs and there has rarely been a time in her life when she hasn't had a dog. Animals will continue to feature in her children's books as she believes caring for animals and nature helps children to become kinder human beings.
