A Date to Die For
When investigative journalist, Alexi Ellis, falls victim to the Sunday Sentinel's cutbacks, she and Cosmo, her anti-social feral cat, head for Lambourn. But this idyllic country paradise harbours secrets. A woman has gone missing under mysterious circumstances and Alexi still has a nose for a story.
So too does ex-Metropolitan Police detective turned private eye, Tyler Maddox. Driven out of the police by a vicious press campaign that accused him of racism, Ty hates all journalists on principle. But Natalie Parker had been using his sister's online dating agency and Tyler needs to find her before his sister's business gets dragged through the mire.
Reluctantly, Alexi, Tyler and Cosmo join forces. As they delve deeper into Natalie's past, they are left with more questions than answers. Is Natalie still alive and, if so, what can have made her turn her back on her comfortable life and thriving business?
Someone doesn't want Alexi and Tyler to find out and will do whatever it takes to ensure they remain in the dark…
A Contest to Kill For
How far would you go to win a reality TV show?
Investigative journalist, Alexi Ellis, moves from her high-powered job on a London Sunday paper to live in Lambourn -- a sleepy village in the heart of British horseracing country. As an investor in her friends' ailing boutique hotel she seizes on the chance to have a fly-on-the-wall televised cookery contest filmed there.
Disaster strikes when the sexy, provocative contestant, guaranteed to keep viewers' temperatures at boiling point, is murdered on set; stabbed through a silicone implant with a chef's knife. Everyone involved with the contest is suspect but the police home in on the hotel's glamorous chef, Marcel Gasquet.
Tyler Maddox, ex-Metropolitan Police Detective turned private eye, is working on another case in the area. When he finds ties between his investigation and Alexi's, he teams up for the second time with the attractive reporter, looking for answers. Delving deeper into the contestants' backgrounds, they all have compelling reasons to want Juliette dead, but the police seem convinced Marcel is their man.
Can Alexi and Ty clear his name, save the show and secure the future of the hotel…
