Description

RCMP Sergeant Ray Robertson has been serving with the United Nations, a job that takes him to South Sudan and Haiti, where he is training local police and assisting with investigations. However, murder seems to find him wherever he goes—even on vacation in the Turks and Caicos Islands. These satisfying short mysteries introduce the reader to colourful locales and a determined protagonist who will stop at nothing until he solves the crime.

This short novel is a high-interest, low-reading level book for older teen readers and adults who are building reading skills, want a quick read or say they don’t like to read!

This digital bundle includes the entire Ray Robertson series: Juba Good, Haitian Graves and Blood and Belonging.

"Tense and gritty." —VOYA

"Truly page-turning and suspenseful." —CM Magazine

About the author

Vicki Delany began her writing career as a Sunday writer: a single mother of three high-spirited daughters with a full-time job as a computer programmer. The years passed, as they tend to do, and the three daughters, somewhat hesitantly, flew the coop, leaving Vicki more time to devote to her writing. She was able to write three novels of suspense, set in Ontario, two of which, Scare the Light Away and Burden of Memory, were published to critical acclaim by Poisoned Pen Press of Scottsdale, Arizona. In 2007, In the Shadow of the Glacier, the first book in a police procedural series set in the British Columbia Interior was published. Born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Vicki was raised mostly in Ontario. Vicki majored in modern history at Carleton, her interest more in the lives of ordinary women and men and the circumstances of their times than ‘big men’ and their wars. It was on a canoeing trip in Algonquin Park that Vicki, realizing that she was doing for fun what people in the past would have considered a hardship, told her trip mates stories about the incredible difficulties people endured in their attempts to get to the Klondike in search of gold, and the idea for a series of Klondike Gold Rush mysteries was set.
