Sneak peek of my new Jessica Ryan Series Book 1

Over the last few months I have been banging on about my gripping new crime series, set in the Staffordshire Peak District. Well the time has almost come to release the first book (mid-September hopefully), and I'm looking for 15 readers who'd like a FREE Kindle copy in return for a short review on launch week.

Interested parties can drop me an email here: info@jfburgess.co.uk

To speed things up, please put "I'd love a free copy of Killer on The Peaks" in the Email subject line.

Here's a first draft of the blurb...

In the tranquil embrace of Staffordshire's Peak District, Detective Jessica Ryan, a resilient single mother, navigates life's challenges. Her serenity is shattered when a call echoes through picturesque Three Shires Head — a call thrusting her into a murder investigation, shaking the popular walkers haven.

A wealthy property developer's murder sends shockwaves through the community. Jessica and her team delve into the case, unravelling layers of deception across decades and Peak District landscapes.

Darkness deepens as a haunted local councillor is found hanged in a natural chasm with a sinister past. Was it suicide or something more sinister?

Pressure mounts as Jess uncovers hidden motives and fractured relationships. Tragedy strikes her own life when her teenage daughter Maddi vanishes. Is there a link between her abduction to the two disturbing deaths?

Revelations bring Jess closer to unearthing a connection unravelling the community. Can she save Maddi in time? Amid escalating peril, Jess confronts inner demons while navigating Peak District's baron moors.

Set against Staffordshire's most rugged landscapes, this crime thriller pushes Jess to the limit. Racing against time, she must unveil a cunning killer and save her daughter from a fate darker than nightmares.

When the line between justice and revenge blur, can Jess summon the strength to ensure the Peak District's beauty isn't eclipsed by lurking darkness?

Together, let's unravel mysteries, chase down criminals, and explore the darkest corners of the human psyche through the captivating world of crime fiction.
