Murder, Mystery, and Munitions East London, January 1917: "He pulled her into his arms and kissed her long and hard before he strangled her. With a last glance at the fire, he turned and ran for the door to escape the inevitable explosion."

When their paths cross again at Gretna Munitions Factory, he knows she can identify him, and that he dare not hesitate to kill again. The explosion has set off a lethal chain of events, and when Policewoman Kirsty Campbell, and MI6 agent Beatrice, join forces to protect Sally, they find themselves following a murderous trail that entangles them with saboteurs, Irish revolutionaries, a German spy, and a plot to assassinate the King. The body count is rising. The clock is ticking. And the stakes are higher than Kirsty could ever have imagined.

Chris is an award-winning novelist and has published three novels in her Dundee Crime Series. Night Watcher, the first book in the series, won the Scottish Association of Writers' Pitlochry Award, and the sequel, Dead Wood, won the Dundee International Book Prize, as well as the Pitlochry Award.

This series features Kirsty Campbell, one of Britain's first policewomen. There are currently two books in this series; The Death Game, and Devil's Porridge. As well as the above, she has published two non-fiction books. 'Crime Fiction and the Indie Contribution' which is an examination of crime fiction as well as an evaluation of independently published books in this genre. And 'Nuts & Bolts of Self-Publishing', an in depth look at self-publishing with step-by-step instructions on how to publish ebooks and paperbacks. Her crime novels are set in Dundee, Scotland, and have been described as scary, atmospheric, page turners. Chris also writes historical sagas, short stories and historical articles which have been published in America and Britain. However, A Salt Splashed Cradle is the only historical saga currently published. Writing is like an addiction to me, Chris says, I go into withdrawals without it. She is currently working on a new Kirsty Campbell novel. Chris is a member of the Society of Authors, the Crime Writers Association and the Scottish Association of Writers. She designed her own website and confesses to being a techno-geek who builds computers in her spare time.
