Murder at Westgate Bay
Murder at Westgate Bay (Third in the Alan Clarke crime series)
Now permanently relocated to the Kent coast after the successful outcomes of his two previous murder cases, DCI Alan Clarke is just settling in to his new environment, together with his wife and baby son, when he is called to solve the cold-blooded and premeditated murder of Dr Ian Jones at Westgate Bay.
The doctor had been sedated and poisoned, dying in agony. DCI Clarke soon has a list of suspects, ranging from the doctor’s estranged wife and her lover, his gambling brother, his housekeeper and her sister. Added to these, Doctor Jones’s love child Holly comes into the frame. . . and then there is a second murder by poison.
Whilst the similarity of the two murders seems more than coincidence, DCI Alan Clarke cannot work out a connection, until a single piece of apparently innocuous evidence comes to light. But is it too late to prevent further murder and loss of life?

About the author:
Carol M. Creasey
Kent born author Carol M. Creasey wrote her first book about her autistic son in 1993 titled My Life is Worth Living! With four children to cope with, that book brilliantly reflects her struggles balancing a full family life and still giving her son the extra care he needed. Many years later, in her novel The Power of Love, Carol drew from these same experiences to write about the life of a young 1960s mother coping with an autistic son.
As well as looking after her family, Carol has had a career as a manager in various china and glass merchandising establishments and also owned her own shop. Writing has always remained an important part in Carol’s life, and since the original publication of My Life is Worth Living! she has published eight novels and her autobiography Candidly Carol. Carol has been the recipient of three Reader’s Choice Awards, winning a coveted first place with the recently republished My Life is Worth Living!
