A new historical murder mystery, out now on Kindle!

The Riddle of the Dunes by James Andrew

We’re pleased to announce the release of James Andrew’s new historical murder mystery, THE RIDDLE OF THE DUNES. Available now on Kindle for the special price of 99p/99c for a limited time.

After a period of calm, a new spate of murders hits a post-war Yorkshire seaside town

Showing a worrying similarity to a past crime, a local woman is found dead in sand dunes near an otherwise sleepy town. Her murder forces the townsfolk to relive events of some years previous.

The difficulty for Detective Inspector Blades is that a man was tried and convicted for the other crimes. Does this mean the killer is still at large and they hung the wrong person?

Diligent investigation of the crime scene and its surroundings produces conflicting witness reports. The Great War having only recently ended, there is an edginess in the air. The population begin to suspect that a conscientious objector is the perpetrator.

The last thing Blades needs is a wrong conviction, so he is desperate to secure a confession. But when a witness is found dead, the stakes are raised.

Who is killing these young women and why? Did they hang an innocent man? Or will the local suspicions about a yellow-belly turn out to be true?

THE RIDDLE OF THE DUNES is the third murder mystery by James Andrew. It can be enjoyed as a standalone, or read alongside the other books in the series: THE BODY IN THE SANDS and DEATH WAITS FOR NO LADY. Both of these books are FREE with Kindle Unlimited and available in paperback.
