The Sandie Shaw Mysteries: The Mega-Bundle, Books 1-6 (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

This is the mega-bundle of our 1920's mystery series. Books 1 to 6, all in one place. When Sandie witnesses her client committing a cut-and-dried murder, her head tells her to walk away. Her heart tells her she can't. Keeping away from the mob is Sandie's first rule of survival… until the day someone comes to call, and changes everything. 1920's Chicago. What came to be known as the 'roaring twenties'. For private investigator Sandie Shaw, 'roaring' was hardly the flattering kind of way she would ever describe it. Born and raised in the city, she despises everything it has become. In her view, Chicago typifies the false decadence gripping America. Still recovering from the lawlessness of the Wild West, her city and the rest of the country then entered the World War for a brief time, and when that was over, the whole nation seemed to lose all sense of reason. People went crazy. Prohibition raised its ugly head, and the mobsters and the flappers took over Chicago. Her beloved city had fallen at the mercy of those who believed they were above the law… once again. Now fifty-three, for a long time Sandie has had to be strong willed to stay in one piece. Being gutsy and taking no nonsense helps to maintain a sense of right and wrong, and to retain her very individual identity. Taking over the one-man agency when her father died, and making it a one-woman business, she knew from the off that in a male-dominated environment she would have to be tough, and witty, to succeed. And that keeping well away from anyone with a machine gun was a big part of staying alive. For eight years she's avoided anything mob-related. Then one day someone rears her beautiful head, and without Sandie even realizing what she's getting into, suddenly she's up to her chin in murky waters. And that's just the start of a whole new life… Read about The Sandie Shaw Mysteries on the new rtgreen website… and do check out Daisy, and everything else we create too! Enjoy!

The RTG mission in life is simple... to not be like everyone else!

'Going Green' has taken on a new meaning, in the book world at least. Whilst we applaud the original meaning (ebooks are a perfect way to promote that) we also try to present a different angle to it.

The tendency these days is that if you don't look and read like everyone else, you don't sell books. Maybe there's some truth in that, but we simply don't do it. The RTG books have been described as a 'breath of fresh literary air', and, by those discovering us for the first time, 'unexpectedly good'. We know many readers prefer the same-old same old, and that's fine.

It's just not what you get from the RTG stable.

Those who know about such things said it would take five years to become a proficient author... I scoffed at that. They were wise. It took six. It's one reason why even today we remodel existing books, and will always do so. Right from the early years the stories were always good, but were put into words less well than they could have been!

These days we have several series and a few standalones, the hit Daisy series most popular amongst them. In everything we do, the same provisos apply

1. Never the same book twice.
2. If we can't think up a good story, it doesn't get written.

The RTG brand is about exciting and twisty plots, a fast pace which doesn't waste words, and endearing (sometimes slightly crazy) characters. We can never please everyone, but it works for us, and, it seems, for those who appreciate our work.

Enjoy! Richard, Ann and the RTG crew
