In the heart of Cloverdale's bustling 19th precinct, Officer Jane Mitchell's world turns upside down when she's paired with the enigmatic Officer Lucas Donovan. Their partnership begins professionally but soon intensifies as they go undercover, posing as a married couple. Tensions flare, old traumas resurface, and the line between duty and desire blurs. As their operation unravels, the duo finds themselves immersed in a web of danger and deceit. But the gravest challenge isn't the external threats they face, but the internal ones. Lucas grapples with a terrible secret, revealing the core of his reluctance to get close, while Jane discovers a resilience she never knew she possessed. Through stakeouts, close calls, and heart-wrenching moments, Jane and Lucas forge an unbreakable bond. Their journey, set against the backdrop of crime and passion, is a testament to love's enduring power even in the face of inevitable loss. As Lucas's time dwindles, they strive to make every moment count, leaving a legacy that echoes through Cloverdale and the life of their daughter, Luna. "Fractured Shields" is a compelling tale of love, sacrifice, and resilience, showcasing the lengths to which two dedicated officers will go, both in the line of duty and in the pursuit of love.
Autorenporträt
Blake Patrick brings nearly three decades of frontline police experience to the literary world. Serving as a bastion of law and order in the UK for 29 years, Blake dedicated his career to the pursuit of justice, not only as a detective unravelling the intricate webs of criminal minds but also as a Family Liaison Officer, providing a compassionate bridge between the force and the families touched by tragedy and crime. Retiring the badge, Blake has since brandished the pen, channelling years of amassed knowledge, humanity, and street-smart wisdom into writing. Although this passion for storytelling was always a flickering flame throughout their policing career, it has only recently roared to life with the completion and publication of their works. This newfound courage to share stories comes from the very essence of a life spent in service to others and a personal milestone of triumph over the daunting vulnerability of creative expression. Blake's works are a unique blend of gritty reality and the rich, complex tapestry of human emotion, informed by an intimate understanding of crime's impact on people and society. Each narrative is not only an act of exploration but also a tribute to the resilience of the human spirit, often exploring themes that resonate deeply with readers from all walks of life. Married for 39 years, Blake's personal life is as rich and fulfilling as their professional one. Together with their spouse, they have nurtured a family that has grown to include two children and three grandchildren, creating a strong, loving foundation that has undoubtedly influenced Blake's writing. Often, it's within the animated discussions and suggestions from these family members that seeds for stories are planted. Whether it's delving into subjects of personal intrigue or taking up the gauntlet thrown by a family member's curiosity, Blake approaches writing with the same fervour and commitment once reserved for solving cases. Readers can expect a journey through pages that not only enthral but also enlighten, crafted by someone who has not only observed life from the sidelines but has been an active participant in its most challenging arenas. Blake's books promise to be a sanctuary where the thrill of the chase, the depth of human connection, and the subtleties of life's intricate narratives converge.
