Nicolette Mace: The Raven Siren - Filling the Afterlife from the Underworld: The Case of Mrs. Weldon

By C.S. Woolley

Follow Siren through a case she thought would be straight forward - follow a man’s wife and prove she is cheating on him. But Siren soon finds out that all is far from simple and straightforward.

There is more than meets the eye to the adulterous Mrs. Weldon & Siren soon finds herself struggling to know which side she is on &, more importantly, how on earth she is going to get paid.

Nicolette Mace is a private investigator out of necessity, not choice. With her family dead and nowhere else to turn she had to learn to stand on her own two feet and live the only way her father ever taught her to.

Life as a private investigator isn't all big cases, excitement and arch enemies. Filling the Afterlife from the Underworld follows the day to day musings and activities of Nicolette Mace: The Raven Siren, taken from her online blog.

"My name is Nicolette Mace, but you might know me as the Raven Siren. I'm a Private Investigator living the 1930s romantic dream in this new and exciting modern age. I keep records of everything that happens; everything I have seen and done. Why? There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamed of in your philosophies."

Reasons why being a P.I is the worst job in the world:-

You only get paid at the end of a job.

You only get paid at the end of a job if your client is still alive to pay you.

Jealous husbands are the worst tippers

Indiscreet wives have a tendency to throw hissy fits when you try and exact money out of them to compensate for their husbands’ miserly behaviour.

Police Sergeants interfere way too much when you are trying to make money on the side in only slightly illegal ways.

Life's trivialities – earning money, eating, sleeping, drinking – all seem to be much harder to do in my life than I expect they
