Where In The Dark
Two envelopes. Two Holocaust survivors. Two anonymous bearer bonds each worth one million pounds. Corporate forensic investigator, Cydney Granger, with help from beyond the grave, enters a world previously unknown to her to unravel the truth behind a web of secrets, lies corruption, blackmail and hidden Nazi loot as new horrors of the Third Reich come to light.
Still struggling to come to terms with the apparent death of her husband, Captain Steve Granger, five years’ earlier Cydney puts her personal feelings to one side and is determined to bring to justice an escaped Nazi criminal, Adolf Weissmuller, living under the assumed name of Albert Whiteman, whose son is about to run for the US presidency. Can Albert ever make amends for his crimes against humanity, or are some actions beyond forgiveness.
Will Cydney, along with her trusted and tough protector, former sergeant, Sean O’Connell, also uncover the truth surrounding her husband?
The consequences of Cydney’s investigations, stretching back before WWII, are far reaching with the potential to bring down a banking dynasty as she faces insurmountable odds from which there is only one final solution.
As soon as corporate forensic specialist, Cydney Granger, hears the crunch of tyres on her driveway, she knows her husband is dead. After all, Captain Steve Granger had barely left for Afghanistan when she’d had the first premonition.
Although Cydney is a psychic medium, she’s disturbed by her inability to connect with Steve. But when she’s contacted by recently deceased Ray Gordon, he agrees to help her, on one condition. Can she put a stop to his brother’s greed and corruption and ensure Ray’s family get the inheritance they deserve?
Sean O’Connell, Steve’s former sergeant, had promised he would always protect Cydney and the children in the event of Steve’s death. But when a client asks Cydney to investigate the scrupulous activities of two high-powered businessmen, and George Edwards appears on the scene intent on pursuing her, Sean finds himself out of his depth.
From the heart of Cydney’s corporate world in London to the ruins of war-torn Damascus, men will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Faced with secrets, fraud, attempted murder, and blackmail, can Cydney come out of this unscathed? And, after four years, is she ready to let Steve go?
“Great sequel like The Shadows Behind Her Smile couldn’t put it down this new writer just gets better. The continuation of the paranormal intervention into Cydney Granger’s investigations links to the corruption in the Nazi Party in WWII into politics and the corporate world, the harrowing stories of the holocaust makes compelling reading.”
“After reading the first book in this series and meeting Cydney Granger is was hooked. The combination of her investigative skills with the assistance of her spirit guides makes for compelling reading.
This book dealt with a very heart wrenching topic, the plundering of Jewish gold by the Nazis during the way but it was handled very well from the point of two Holocaust survivors. Can’t wait for the next book in the Cydney Granger series.”
“Another gem from this new author. It’s clear that Karen has really done her homework with the research that must have gone into this compelling and thought-provoking novel. I’d love to meet her – and Cydney Granger… A highly recommended read.”
