⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “A new and better Miss Marple . . . you’ll fall in love with the characters!” Vicki

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Cool little multi-layered mystery about a quaint seaside town. Intriguing.” Mamatufy

_______________________

Originally published as Fragile Lives.

Meet Rina Martin, a retired actress with a taste for tea, gardening and crime solving.

She played a TV sleuth for years, but now she has to do it for real.

It’s lonely out on the cliffs of Marlborough Head. Lonely and dangerous.

When a body washes up on the rocks below, everyone assumes it must be brutish Edward Parker. Weeks ago, he slipped over the cliff’s edge. Never to be seen again.

But on closer inspection, it’s not him.

The dead man is Pat Duggan, son of a wealthy nightclub owner. And it’s not the sea that killed him — it’s a gunshot wound.

In life, Pat had a habit of disappearing. He worked for his father, alongside missing Edward Parker.

Coincidence? Rina and her unlikely new detective friend don’t think so . . .

Can she unravel the mystery before more innocent victims die?

If you love Agatha Christie, Jeanne M. Dams, The Thursday Murder Club, Glenda Young, Stella Cameron, Frances Evesham or Ann Cleeves, prepare to be hooked by this enchanting character-driven mystery!

What readers are saying about the Rina Martin mysteries:

“Miss Marple fans will find a lot to like.” Publishers Weekly

“Rina’s kickoff emphasizes people and place, letting the reader in on secrets early and relying on psychological conflict to drive the appealing plot.” Kirkus

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Three cheers for Jane Adams!” Linda

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “This is my first book by this author and I will eagerly await more!” Nancy

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Murder She Wrote is an apt comparison — Rina Martin is sharp and no-nonsense. She knows a bit about law, a bit about murder — and a lot about human nature.” Carmen

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “If you like Agatha Christie and Patricia Wentworth, give these books a try.” Pamela

THE DETECTIVE
Determined and compassionate, Rina Martin on a mission is an unstoppable force. When Rina retired from acting, she bought a B & B in Frantham on Sea. There, she has a quirky cast of full-time boarders, including wannabe magician Tim. She only wanted a quiet life. Instead, events propel Rina into full investigation mode, and she gets a taste for sleuthing. Can she help it if crimes just keep turning up on her doorstep?

THE SETTING
Tucked away in a charming little bay on the Jurassic coast, Frantham on Sea is a typical Victorian seaside town, with a picture-perfect promenade, B & Bs, and a grand hotel perched atop the headland. At the end of the promenade is the police station, where the officers’ days have always been short and uneventful — until Rina comes to town, and things take a turn for the sinister.

Cosy mystery that packs an emotional punch

Beoordeeld in het Verenigd Koninkrijk op 13 juli 2022

Geverifieerde aankoop

After loving Murder at Sea, the first book in the series, I was delighted to be back with Mac, Rina and the eclectic tribe of guests at her guest house. This time, the plot’s more complex, involving a ruthless extortionist, who’s not averse to killing the children of his victims if the parents don’t pay up.

Not that DI Mac McGregor understands this straight away. He’s trying to put a name to the body that washed up on shore. Then one of the victim’s parents is shot dead and the whole investigation moves up a notch.

There’s still plenty for Rina to do as she’s drawn into the puzzle and can’t help fitting pieces into place. Her insight, empathy and understanding add a caring, softer counterpoint to the killings and crimes under investigation.

This softer core is one of the reasons I enjoy these novels. The characters are believable and charismatic. The plot is a great thriller as the police play catch up with the killers, relying on Rina to help them out along the way. She takes it all in her stride, being the great character she is.

If you like your cosy mysteries without the twee village elements of the genre, then this series is for you. It has emotion, great characters, a twisting plot and a core of honesty that doesn’t pull punches nor expose you to anything graphic, despite the dark nature of the crimes.

Rina and Mac return.

Beoordeeld in het Verenigd Koninkrijk op 8 december 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

I was a little disappointed with this story. It was a continuation of book one, taking us on a rapid roller coaster as some of the ends left hanging were addressed and developed.
I found the number of characters and their loyalties a little confusing as the kidnapping plot developed alongside other dastardly deeds.
Rina and her household are great fun and beautifully drawn as is the development of George as he learns to live his new life.
Not too convinced by the police elements but an enjoyable read, if not in the same league, for me, as book one.

Another engrossing tangled web of murder and mayhem.

Beoordeeld in het Verenigd Koninkrijk op 24 november 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

Rina has fast become one of my favourite sleuths, and together with Mac will continue to bring us more exciting murder mysteries I hope.
This was particularly heart rending because it involved the kidnap and sometimes murder of helpless children, but the background story of little George was especially poignant, a child who had endured year's of abuse from his brute of a father, only to find himself alone in the world.
Until he met Rina and Mac.

Great continuation story

Beoordeeld in het Verenigd Koninkrijk op 20 december 2021

Geverifieerde aankoop

But could be read as standalone. My feeling is its best to read the first book in the series,. Again I thought the plot and the character developments were excellent. Have a feeling this will be a good series. Loving Rina Martin and her quirky set up at home, and Mac is developing into an interesting character. Don’t be put off by the cosy genre, as some of it is far from that!

Good easy read.

Beoordeeld in het Verenigd Koninkrijk op 26 maart 2022

Geverifieerde aankoop

This set of books are my first try with Jane Adams. Very Miss Marple-ish. It's amazing how a member of the public wander in and out of crime scenes a t will!! Nevertheless I have really enjoyed the first two books in this series and hope they continue in this fashion. Very easy to follow the storyline. Will definitely be getting more of Janes books
