Well good afternoon everyone. I would just like to say I have probably already said this at some time or the other but afternoon naps in college are totally a thing! I mean how else am I supposed to make it through Zoom University without taking a power nap in between my classes? Seriously that was not a rhetorical question if you have ways please share. – The Apprentice

Claire Harris loves nothing more than crafting homemade candles. She has always dreamed of one day opening a quaint candle shop in her home village of Northash, but at thirty-five, she still can’t afford to take the risk. Stuck in a dead-end job at the local candle factory, and back living with her parents, Claire knows her life needs a shakeup.

The last place she expected change to come from was the factory itself, but when the owner is shockingly pushed to her death, Claire’s life is flipped upside down. She isn’t the only person in the village depending on the factory, so when the murder plunges the business’s future into uncertainty, Claire feels compelled to solve the crime.

With the help of her retired-detective father and closest friends, Claire uncovers a tangled web of conspiracies, cover-ups, secrets, and lies, but can she uncover the truth before her candle shop dream slips through her fingers forever?

Come What May
by Larry Darter
4.2 Stars (365 Reviews)
Genre: Mystery | Action & Adventure

FREE for a limited time

Inspired by a shocking true story, Come What May, the debut book in the new Ben Malone detective mystery series, is a high-stakes thrill ride through the gritty underbelly of the City of Angels and a look at the darker side of human nature.

Ben Malone is a veteran Los Angeles Police detective with a bright future ahead of him. Or so he thought until he is caught up in a run of bad luck and his life starts falling apart. The worst of it, his unfortunate entanglement in a spate of fatal on-duty shootings at a time when activists are protesting the use of deadly force by police and rioting all over the country. On edge and questioning his judgment, Malone’s LAPD superiors speculate that he may be too quick to use deadly force.

Relieved from street duty, Malone is sequestered in Robbery-Homicide Division’s Cold Case Homicide Section to keep him under wraps while he undergoes department-mandated psychiatric evaluation.

Initially resentful over his reassignment to the cold case section, Malone’s attitude starts to change when he and new partner, Detective Jaime Reyes, come across the files of a cold as ice, 23-year-old unsolved murder case. The more they study the case, the more certain they become that the theory pursued by the original investigators was completely wrong.

Since the decades-old murder does not fit the unit’s criteria for reopening a cold case for active investigation, Malone and Reyes embark on an “off-the-books” investigation.
