Nicolette Mace: the Raven Siren - Filling the Afterlife from the Underworld: Sabrina

By C.S. Woolley

When Siren discovers Sabrina Evans waiting in her office for her, Siren doesn't quite know what to expect - but one thing is clear, Sabrina is definitely going to make life more interesting for the gun-toting private investigator.

With Sabrina trying to fly under the police radar and Harry determined to discover who Sabrina is, and why she is hanging around with Siren, this particular chapter of Siren’s life is one that is marked with more chaos and danger than ever before.

Join Siren, Fred, Harry and Sabrina as they dive into the criminal underworld. With so many people out to stop them, only one thing is certain, not all of them will be making it out alive.

"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."

Events featured in this volume take place between Nicolette Mace: The Raven Siren - Beginnings and Nicolette Mace: The Raven Siren - The Kevin Metis Saga.

A warning to the reader:

A bad day at the office

I returned home and looked at my files and thought that I should take a look at what happened to DCI Hyett a little more closely, after all, he had died just before Gary Rogers was named Superintendent and there were rumours that Hyett was the favourite for the position, rather than Gary Rogers.

I thought I would keep my inquiries under the radar, keep Fred and Harry in the dark about what I was doing. However, when I opened the door to my office there was a woman waiting for me. She was dressed in a sharp suit, had immaculate hair and was heavily armed.

Based on first impressions, I liked her.

Good morning, Ms Mace. My name is Sabrina Evans. I think I could use your help.

People who sit and wait in my office never call me Ms and they never say good morning to me.

What can I do for you Ms Evans? I asked as I went to sit down at my desk.

I’m here on behalf on Interpol. We’re investigating some people suspected of human trafficking into the city and the information that we’ve been given says that you’re the best person to talk to if you want to find out what is going on in the underworld. Sabrina smiled at me and reached into her pocket. She pulled out a packet of cigarettes, offered me one and pulled out a gold lighter.

Who told you that? I replied, accepting the cigarette. I watched as Sabrina lit my cigarette and then lit one for herself. It had been a surprisingly long time since I’d found someone who I could share a good smoke with.

A lot of people that have tried to break this ring and failed. Sabrina shrugged.

I don’t know what I can do to help you. I replied with a shrug to match Sabrina’s.

That’s okay, I do. Sabrina said with a grin.

I’d begun to get an unsettled feeling in the pit of my stomach, the kind that I imagined that Fred and Harry both got when I suggested doing anything that they might consider remotely dangerous.

Oh? And what exactly is that? I asked as I opened the draw of my desk and took out a bottle of whisky and two glasses.

You know these streets, you know the people that I’d need to talk to and you are billed as a fairly good investigator by those who have worked with you. Sabrina said as I poured.

The same could be said about the police, who I think you’re supposed to check in with. I’m sure I know at least two of them that would be happy to co-operate. I replied as I handed a glass to Sabrina
