The James Lalonde Starter Library contains four stories in the James Lalonde Universe: The Candidate (Novella), The Locked Room (Novella), The Lawn (Short Story), and Suspicion (Short Novel).
The Candidate (Rookie Reporter, Book 1)
Rookie reporter James Lalonde is bored. And he isn't a journalist. He's an all-round dogs-body to editor-in-chief Rhys Kelly. But his luck has finally changed. After eavesdropping in on the morning editorial meeting, James learns he has his first-ever story. There's one catch. If the story gets too complicated, it will be taken away from him and given to another journalist with more experience. Sure, it's a boring interview with the soon-to-be sworn-in magistrate, Albert Harrington, but it finally gets him out of his six-month slump as an editorial research assistant.
He finally has a chance to prove himself. The following day, James turns up to his interview with Albert to discover a trail of blood smeared through Albert's house, an empty safe, the murder weapon on the floor, but no body. Detective Anwar Khan turns up at the crime scene, puts two and two together, and believes James murdered the controversial magistrate. Can James clear his name and write his first-ever story before his editor takes it away from him?
The Locked Room (A James Lalonde Novella)
It's the opening of Clovervale Hall, an exquisite bed-and-breakfast in Oxfordshire, owned and operated by Professor Xavier Watson and his wife, Flora. And James Lalonde can't believe his luck-he gets an all-expenses paid trip. And he gets to write a story about the opening of the bed-and-breakfast for the Northampton Tribune. It's going to be the easiest weekend of his life. Unfortunately, the weather is scorching hot, and a cyclonic storm sets in, trapping him and the guests inside the manor house. But, there's one thing he didn't count on-a killer is on the loose, roaming the halls of Clovervale Hall.
While cyclonic weather conditions rage on outside, James hunts down the killer. Lurking behind every corner, he discovers secrets and lies. But his investigations haven't gone unnoticed. The killer has a watchful eye on James. Can James solve the murder before the bodies start to pile up?
The Lawn ( A James Lalonde Short Story)
When Will Thatcher doesn't show up for work, James Lalonde is forced to attend an afternoon tea with Alistair Carmichael in Will's place. The lovely autumn afternoon tea comes to an abrupt end when a body is discovered on the front lawn of the Carmichael Estate with strange markings on its neck. But something is missing. A priceless painting is off the wall. However, it's no ordinary painting. It's a van Gogh purchased at an auction a few months prior. But trouble has its watchful eye on James. Can James figure out who the thief and murderer are before he is next?
Suspicion (James Lalonde, Book 1)
James has a nose for trouble. But that's nothing new. This time, things are different his life is on the line. James is the chief editor of a small newspaper. It's hardly captivating work. He's bored. But all of that is about to change. Late one evening, he returns home to discover his long-time girlfriend and journalist, Valentine, has left. Early the next morning, James fails to reallocate her assigned story. To avoid blank space in the culture section and losing his job, he decides to write the story on the local museum's latest acquisition, Excalibur.
But there's one thing he didn't count on-Excalibur is missing, and a dead body is at the crime scene. As his investigations commence, James unravels a tangled web of betrayal, kidnapping, and murder. But his fact-finding hasn't gone unrecognised. The wrong people have started to notice.
