Mostly Murders

Book 1 in the Killers of a Certain Age series.

Billie, Helen, Mary Alice and Natalie are all women in their sixties. All of them are retired. And all of them are killers. For forty years the four women have assassinated drug lords, dictators, arms dealers and human traffickers, dishing out punishment when the law cannot, and proven time and time again that underestimating them is a lethal mistake.

The fearsome foursome are celebrating their retirement with an all inclusive cruise, when they discover that someone on board is out to get them. Until now the four have relied on their employer, a secret organisation established after the Second World War to hunt down escaped Nazis, but for this last job they are on their own. Who ordered the hit on them and why?

A fun take on a mystery told from the killer’s point of view. Our foursome have all taken lives, but they have done so with the intention of making the world a better place, making it easy to root for them as they fight, flirt and fake their way through various hurdles and race the clock, trying to find out who is after them before it is too late. With backgrounds as colourful as these women have, there are plenty of skeletons in the closet, and plenty of past escapades that might have led to them becoming targets. Now the four sexagenarian must untangle the plot and stop whoever is conspiring against them before they all end up six feet under.
