SOMETHING IN THE WATER Book One: DROWNING by Dean Comyn by Dean Comyn

By Mystery Reads Curator Leave a Comment

A missing scientist and a deadly discovery. An unknown organisation with a global agenda and a new detective, who is good at ice hockey.

‘Not Yet Detective’ Charles Burns hasn’t been named to a newly formed task force. That was supposed to happen Monday. But a brilliant young scientist and his revolutionary discovery have disappeared. Has he been kidnapped or is he complicit in a terrorist plot to commit mass murder?
SOMETHING IN THE WATER Book One: “Drowning” follows Charles Burns and a newly formed unit of the London Metropolitan Police in real time as they search for a missing scientist and try to stop his discovery from becoming a weapon against humanity. Little is known about the scientist, but his work has attracted the attention of more than just the Health Ministry. It’s unclear who knows that the formula has a fatal flaw, and could become a dangerous weapon in the wrong hands. Burns and Major Crime Unit 2 has their first mission: find the scientist and stop the discovery from becoming a weapon. They must act quickly and quietly, and MCU2 has been put together by Detective Chief Inspector John Wayne to do just that: Act quickly, under the direct authority of The Home Office, and quietly, to avoid a panic spreading through the media. There is little time before that, or worse, happens.

“Steeped in sinister plots, apocalyptic threats, and political subterfuge, Drowning is the riveting first book in Dean Comyn’s Something in the Water series. When a priceless new technology and its creator go missing, a new British task force snaps into action to prevent what could be a devastating catastrophe. This thriller is timely and hard-hitting, combining well-researched procedural police elements with high-stakes anti-terror action. Dripping with attitude and brimming with tension, Comyn’s debut novel sets a promising stage for the series to come.”Self-Publishing Review, ★★★★

By Mystery Reads Curator Leave a Comment

Three Thrilling Novellas for One Low Price!
This collection includes the first three Flynn & Levy novellas from award winning author David DeLee.

COP SHOT
On a cold, rainy, March night, NYPD homicide detective Frank Flynn catches the worst case there is: A cop shot under the Brooklyn Bridge. Forced to team-up with an Internal Affairs investigator, the two detectives must work together to sort through a plethora of suspects, all of whom have reasons for wanting the dirty cop dead, to determine who shot the cop–and why–while harboring secrets of their own.

RE-HOMED
Concerned by a parent’s behavior toward his adopted daughter, recently demoted NYPD Detective Christine Levy uncovers a murder that leads to the disappearance of a teenage girl and a manhunt for her physically abusive father.

POLICING FOR PROFIT
NYPD Homicide Detective Frank Flynn, once again teamed with former Internal Affairs Detective Christine Levy, catches the call all homicide detectives hate most–a cop’s been killed.

But as Flynn and Levy dig deeper, the investigation strains their partnership and puts them in the cross-hairs of some very dangerous people. All while a racially-charged city holds its breath–and waits.
