Sinopsis

A stolen necklace has British detective Patrick Dawlish running in circles to find the culprit in this classic Golden Age mystery.   A famous jewel thief has struck again, stealing a fortune of gems from Lord Hillmorton and kidnapping his daughter to ensure his silence. But there’s one man to call when there are no other options: Patrick Dawlish.   Hot in pursuit, Dawlish, his wife, and Cedric Forbes find themselves caught between a notorious gang of thieves and a quirky family who may or may not have their own part to play in the crime. As a strand of valuable pearls changes hands, it’s up to Dawlish to orchestrate a plan to root out the fakes from the genuine article—and bring the innocent home alive . . .

    I'm Nina Statleon, a vampire (with a little bit of witch thrown in for good measure—a sucky, magic-less one). My best friends, Marty, a werewolf, and and Wanda, a halfsie, have talked me into opening a detective agency for paranormals. 
     
     
     
    That said, my partners in this new adventure don't care about all my protests. That's how we end up with our first client, Brenda Bronkowski, an older vampire the human police are hunting down for murder . . . 
     
     
     
    Brenda fell for one of the oldest tricks in this new age of technology's book—a romance scam. You guessed it, Brenda was catfished. Brenda swears she's never even met him, let alone murdered him, and she's come to us for help finding the person responsible for his murder. 
     
     
     
    Not only is the suspect list low, there's a glitch, and it's a big one. 
     
     
     
    The clan. 
     
     
     
    It's bad enough the human police like her for Owen's murder, but if the clan finds out we've got her holed up in the murder basement, it won't only be curtains for Brenda, our little private investigating gig could be over before it's really begun. 
     
     
     
    That means we need to solve this pronto, so we can get the clan off our backs, but more importantly, so Brenda doesn't end up expunged . . .

    Deep within the forgotten mines of Utah, victims begin to surface, leaving Sheila Stone to unearth a killer's dark legacy. As long-buried secrets claw their way to the surface, Sheila must rely on her lethal skills and local knowledge before the abandoned caverns claim another life.

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
    
    SILENT GRAVE (A Sheila Stone Suspense Thriller—Book 12) is the twelfth book in a long-anticipated new series by #1 bestseller and USA Today bestselling author Blake Pierce, whose bestseller The Perfect Wife (a free download) has received over 20,000 five star reviews.
    
    With her Olympic dreams crumbled, Sheila, 28, struggles to find her place back home. She is surrounded by reminders of what could have been, stuck inside the shadow of her older sister: the golden child, the respected sheriff. But when her sister persuades her to join the local police force, Sheila’s life and career start anew.
    
    As she hunts serial killers, Sheila notices clues that others miss and offers a perspective that no one else has. She realizes she has a talent outside of fighting, and that she has a chance to embrace a new life in Salt Lake—a life outside the ring.
    
    This is a different kind of ring, though. Sheila quickly realizes that to survive, she will need more than just her strength—she’ll need a brilliance to match that of even the most diabolical killer….
    Can Sheila win this match? Or will she finally lose it all?
    
    A page-turning and harrowing suspense thriller featuring a brilliant and tortured protagonist, the SHEILA STONE series is a riveting mystery, packed with suspense, twists and turns, revelations, and driven by a breakneck pace that will keep you flipping pages late into the night.
    
    Future books in the series are also available.
