About this ebook

London is Lydia Crow's city so when a man is found hanged under Blackfriars Bridge, she takes it personally.

Driven by her desire to improve her fledgling P.I. skills and an innate sense of justice, Lydia investigates. Even when it seems as if the Silver Family might be involved, Lydia refuses to back down.

The Silver Family, who run the finest law firm in London, have a gift for persuasion. In the Bad Old Days it was said they could make a man jump off a roof by convincing him he could fly. But that's all in the past… Isn't it?

Everybody wants something from Lydia: Her Uncle Charlie wants her to join the infamous Family Business, her ghostly flatmate wants her to test her power, DCI Fleet wants a relationship, and the Silver Family want her to keep her nose out.

Trouble is, Lydia has never been much good at taking orders. And London in a heatwave is a dangerous place to be...

The Silver Mark is the second instalment in Crow Investigations, an exciting paranormal mystery series from bestselling author of magical fiction, Sarah Painter

    Curiouser and curiouser... Lydia Crow is nicely (un)settled in London in her sparkling new detective agency. When she gets tired of following up on infidelity cases she decides to take on a case of murder- an analyst is found hanged under Blackfriars Bridge- it has all the hallmarks of a professional hit. Lydia has to manage the politics of the Families to get to the bottom of this one. Things are further complicated by her on/off relationship with Fleet, and there are other strange things happening. This is an in-between book- it sets up a further mystery and doesn't provide as many answers as it should- however it is a fun read and the character development is excellent.

    Such a fun series! If you like spunky women detectives with a non-cheesy supernatural twist, this series is for you.
