About this ebook

JUST BEFORE MIDNIGHT: The sizzling erotic sequel to Unlocked Secrets by popular contemporary writer Desley Polmear. A fast-paced journey from Australia to Italy bright splashes of colour and movement on a broad canvas. Continue to follow the highs and lows of beautiful, sexy Susie Russo's chaotic life and the consequences of her choices. Old parental questions are answered and new paternal mysteries develop and drive the search for truth, honour, hope and love.

Psychic warnings/predictions enter: Will Susie heed their counsel? Are they accurate? Will Susie pay the price and learn another life lesson the hard way by direct personal experience if she ignores them? A fast paced sensual page turner which invites the reader to become engrossed in the narrative and to avidly follow the plot twists and turns to the conclusion. Does Susie put her past behind her and search for true peace and happiness: is revenge a dish best eaten cold or should you dig two graves: is justice finally served?

The reader is on a roller coaster ride of excitement and will form their own judgment according to their own moral compass. But WOW! What a ride.

    Chronologically, Murder and the Married Virgin is the first Mike Shayne novel with Lucy Hamilton working as his secretary and the first with him working out of a New Orleans office. Lucy is new to the detective field and a bit uncomfortable with the sordid details and even threatens to walk out. That light banter is a good foul to the tough detective work Shayne does. This is Brett Halliday's version of a locked-room mystery, trying to solve the mysterious death of a maid who seemingly killed herself right before her wedding day. Halliday throws in the usual mysterious women, nightclubs, gamblers, jewel thieves, and femme fatales as well as the not uncommon all points bulletin for s pickup on Shayne for murder. This is a straight-up solid detective novel. There's no attempt here to be clever or literary. But it's just what the doctor ordered: solid, tough, no-nonsense private eye work.
