Praise for the Mellin Cove Series:

“DANGER AT MELLIN COVEgave me the same thrills I got when I first read Jamaica Inn. Terrific! It had me completely gripped and entranced. I thoroughly enjoyed it.” - E-Scape Press Author Judy Jarvie.

“A smashing read enjoyed every page, full of suspense, a good story well written, would recommend this book to my friends.” Amazon reader review

“A good story to settle down with after a long day of stress. It takes the reader to another time and place and reveals a slice of life from the point of view of Hedra who is a naïve, but spunky young woman. She has a strong sense of right and wrong. Even though she comes from wealth and position, she relates to the needs and circumstances of the hardworking people of Mellin Cove.” - Long and Short Reviews

Short but Good

I've never been keen on novellas but I think I should have a rethink. The book is only short but still had all the content one would expect from a Rena George mystery. People are being murdered and their bodies are being left at ancient burial sites. The pressure is on detectives Drummond and Rougvie to catch the killer before anyone else becomes a victim. The book is set the Inverness area and I really enjoyed it.
