Fallen Butterfly takes flight!

It’s with great pleasure and happiness that I announce the publication of Fallen Butterfly, the third in my new crime fiction series set in idyllic Mallorca.My feisty and fun Mallorcan heroine, Isabel Flores Montserrat, is busier than ever solving crimes island wide and also in her own neck of the woods in the mountain village of Sant Martí (fictional) in the Soller valley.

This time, the minister for transport is found murdered in ritualistic fashion, hikers are falling off cliffs in the Tramuntana mountains and Tolo Cabot, the chief of the National Police, loses no time in calling Isabel to help solve the perplexing mysteries.

If you would like to buy the latest in the series, or any of my ten Mallorca based titles, please visit online bookshops and Amazon here Many good bookshops such as Waterstones and Daunts in the UK stock my books or can order them for you. Many outlets sell them in Mallorca.

If you’re a fan of audiobooks, I’m thrilled to report that my first in the series, The Devil’s Horn, will be released as an audiobook in Spring 2023.

Wishing all of you a wonderful festive holiday and New Year with loved ones. May you enjoy happiness, good health, and fun adventures in 2023!

Warmest regards,
Anna

Haunted Magpie takes flight! Coming soon...order NOW!

I am delighted to announce that Haunted Magpie, the second in my new crime fiction series set in magical Mallorca, launches 19, November 2020.

Hot on the heels of The Devil’s Horn, published in October 2019, the new novel will continue to feature protagonist, Isabel Flores Montserrat, a feisty and fearless Mallorcan sleuth who loves her family, pet ferret Furó, and the authentic Mallorcan way of life.

Having penned six Mallorca-based travel titles, it was only a matter of time before I allowed Isabel, or Bel, as she’s known locally, to come to life through the pages of a novel. Unlike many protagonists in popular crime fiction today, Bel is not a depressive, social media, drug or alcohol junkie, and prefers to spend her time enjoying the simple pleasures that life brings. All the same, she does indulge in Chupa Chup lollies and packets of sunflower seeds and let’s not discuss her love of ensaïmada pastries and good food and wine!

Isabel is not disaffected, doesn’t come with a swag bag of neuroses and isn’t hiding a dark and bruised past. She loves her close village community, friends, and gaggle of hens. Every day at 6am she swims at Can Repic beach in the local port of Soller and revels in the beauty of her surroundings. Isabel is life affirming, cheerful, eccentric and at times wilful and rebellious but ultimately loveable.

Life in the golden valley of Soller, running her mother’s holiday rentals agency is blissful until out of the blue Isabel is contacted by her old police chief, Tolo Cabot, to help solve some baffling crimes. Agreeing to return temporarily to police work (Isabel was a detective in a former life), she and Tolo try to make sense of a spate of animal disappearances in Isabel’s village and even more worryingly, missing locals island wide. Is a serial killer on the loose?

Haunted Magpie is available at all good bookshops in the UK and Mallorca, and is also available at many bookstores online internationally. It can be purchased along with my six travel titles and The devil’s Horn, first in the new crime series, in Kindle and paperback form at Amazon

I do hope you enjoy it and if you do, would so appreciate a review on amazon, should you have a spare nano. Huge thanks!

The Devil's Horn hits the street!

After a busy year, I am delighted to announce that The Devil’s Horn my debut crime caper featuring Isabel Flores Montserrat, a feisty Mallorcan sleuth, launches this week. It will the first in a new fiction series set on the beautiful island of Mallorca, my cherished home.

Having penned six Mallorca based travel titles, it was only a matter of time before I allowed Isabel, or Bel, as she’s known locally, to come to life through the pages of a book. Unlike many protagonists in popular crime fiction today, Bel is not a television, social media, drug or alcohol junkie, and prefers to spend her time enjoying the simple pleasures that life brings. All the same, she does indulge in Chupa Chup lollies and packets of sunflower seeds and let’s not discuss her love of ensaimada pastries! She’s not disaffected, doesn’t come with a swag bag of neuroses and isn’t hiding a dark and complicated past. She loves her family and close village community, her pet ferret Furó, her gaggle of hens and her friends. Every day at 6am she swims at Can Repic beach in her local port and revels in the beauty of her surroundings. Isabel is life affirming, cheerful, eccentric and at times wilful and rebellious but ultimately loveable.

Life in the golden valley of Soller, running her mother’s holiday rentals agency is good until out of the blue she is contacted by her old police chief, Tolo Cabot, to help solve some baffling crimes. Reluctantly agreeing temporarily to return to her former life as a detective, she and Tolo race against the clock to solve a child abduction, murder of an elderly recluse and emergence of a drug cartel.

The Devil’s Horn is available at all good bookshops in the UK and Mallorca, and is also available at many bookstores online internationally. It can be purchased in Kindle or in paperback at Amazon
I do hope you enjoy it and if you do, would so appreciate a review at amazon, should time permit. Huge thanks!
