Doctor Death

by Steve Higgs

When a chance encounter with a pickpocket leads to something more sinister, avid sleuth Patricia Fisher swings into action.
The Aurelia is on its way to Thailand, but a mystery illness is spreading among crew and passengers. Is there a link between it and a world-famous immunologist on board? There is something very strange about his companions and their behaviour, but no one wants to listen to Patricia's outlandish theories.
When people she cares about join the growing number of sick people, Patricia sees no option other than to trace the cause for herself. Finding the truth will lead to her craziest caper yet.
Be ready for more hi-jinx aboard the world's most luxurious cruise ship.

Author Biography

When Steve Higgs wrote his debut novel, Paranormal Nonsense, he was a Captain in the British Army. He would love to pretend that he had one of those careers that has to be redacted and in general denied by the government and that he has had to change his name and continually move about because he is still on the watch list in several countries. In truth though, he started out as a mechanic. Not like Jason Statham, sneaking about as a contract killer, more like one of those greasy gits that charge you a fortune and keep your car for a week when all you went in for was a squeaky door hinge. At school, he was mostly disinterested in every subject except creative writing, for which, at age ten, he won his first award. However, calling it his first award suggests that there have been more, which there have not. Accolades may come but, in the meantime, he is having a ball writing mystery stories and crime thrillers and claims to have more than a hundred books forming an unruly queue in his head as they clamour to get out. Now retired from the military, he lives in the southeast corner of England with a trio of lazy sausage dogs. Surrounded by rolling hills, brooding castles, and vineyards, he doubts he will ever leave, the beer is just too good.

Review

"This was a ripper of a tale quite freaky in it could happen. Lots of twists and turns and some returning characters which I loved. Another diamond of a book"
"International terrorists, bio weapons, and the Seventh Fleet. Plus this time I laughed over and over at the antics and story. Well done! Lovely series which is, quite simply, just fun to read. On to the next!!"
"Patricia and friends tackled this mystery head on. They seemed to be thwarted at every turn. This book had a serious subject, definitely a page-turner!"
