A Woman Scorned

This is a psychological crime thriller based in the province of Almeria, Spain. Meeting two families who move from the UK, we follow how their lives intertwine, ending in tragedy. The reader is taken along a path which inexorably leads to one conclusion, but with a twist in the tale – is it the right conclusion?

In this the first in the series of murder mysteries, we meet the two crime fighters: Morgan, an ex-CID detective retired in Spain, and his friend Morales, an inspector in the Spanish police force.

This book will appeal to readers of stories built on emotional complexity, taut suspense and unexpected revelations.

Its dual setting between the UK and Spain gives the story a distinct international scope, enhancing its global appeal and making it ideal for readers who gravitate towards elevated, character - driven crime dramas. Nearly every major character engages in manipulation, creating a web of lies that mirrors domestic thriller classics. The story unfolds across two worlds: UK: grey, restrained and mundane; an atmosphere that reflects ordinary lives quietly masking deep emotional decay. Spain: bright, sensual and deceptively inviting, a landscape of warmth that hides corruption and crime. This contrast reflects the duality of the characters; ordinary people concealing extraordinary secrets. With its psychological depth, strong international appeal, and unforgettable twist, A Woman Scorned offers a gripping storyline. It is a book that provokes thought, stirs emotion and keeps audiences questioning until the very end.
