Happy ‘Cover Reveal’ day to author Jane Isaac
My thanks go out to the Aria Fiction and NetGalley teams, for including me in the launch of this book.

FOR BETTER, FOR WORSE – (DC Beth Chamberlain #2)
Stuart Ingram was once a respected local councillor…
The first time the police knocked on Gina’s door, they arrested her husband.
The second time, they accused him of child abuse.
But he died a guilty man.
This time, the police are here for Gina – to tell her that her husband is dead. Murdered, just two weeks before his trial.
Gina always stood by her husband. Even when everyone else walked away. She believed the trial would clear his name. But now Stuart is dead.
And his wife is the suspect.
It’s a race against time for DC Beth Chamberlain to uncover the truth – especially when a second man turns up dead.
Domestic noir meets police procedural in this pacy thriller.
Previously published as Presumed Guilty

JANE ISAAC
Jane lives in rural Northamptonshire, UK with her detective husband (very helpful for research!), daughter and dog, Bollo.
Having no fixed idea of her calling from a young age, Jane ambled through life, fell upon a career in the civil service, made great friends, met her husband and holidayed frequently – all endless fun. But feeling there was something missing and in an attempt to fill the void, she took up numerous courses including: French, art, law, pottery, personnel management and even sign language.
The turning point for Jane, eventually came almost twenty years ago, when she and her husband took a year out to travel the world and a friend gave her a journal to keep as a present. The photos they took drew on memories but, even years later, when reading the journal, she realised the power and emotions her words could still evoke, and so began her love affair with writing.
She enrolled on a creative writing course and started writing articles for newspapers and magazines. Then she discovered fiction writing and, in 2007, embarked on her first novel, An Unfamiliar Murder, which was picked up by an American publisher.
Since then, she has never looked back!

“I’ve always been captivated by what happens when extraordinary events touch the lives of ordinary people. For the most part, our lives are relatively untouched by the police. What happens if we are forced into such a situation? How would we react? My novels are detective fiction with a psychological edge, inspired by this fascination.”

Sounds like it could be a good thriller, Yvonne. Thanks for telling us about it!
Hi Mary,
Jane already has a good reputation for writing thrillers, although I have yet to read any for myself.
This will be her third short series, each featuring a new Detective in the main role.
All 11 books to date, have received excellent ratings and reviews at Goodreads. I’ll leave a link to Jane’s page, just in case you want to check it out for yourself.

Thanks for stopping by 🙂
The premise sounds very interesting, but it’s book two in a series. I need more stand-alones! I like the cover, but… it appears she’s removing her wedding band from her right hand instead of her left. Maybe it’s just a mirror image. (I know, I’m being picky!!)
Hi Kelly,
I featured the first book in the ‘Beth Chamberlain’ series, just last month, although in all fairness, both books have been re-published and re-branded since their initial release in 2018!

The Blog Tour extract from the first book, didn’t really give too much away, although this time around Jane has sent through a lovely Guest Post. which will be my Blog Tour contribution in mid March.
This will be Jane’s third series, all featuring different lead Detectives, with both the first two series only being trilogies, so not too long – Unless of course, Jane decides to add to them in the future!
I noticed the wedding ring thing too! – but unlike yourself, never thought of the mirror thing – Duh! am I slow or what!! 🙂
This one sounds intense and like it is full of plot twists and turns. Thanks for highlighting it.
Hi Naida,
Sorting out all the crimes is going to be a major operation in itself by the sound of things, without trying to work out who the guilty party is!!
I am looking forward to getting my thinking cap on 🙂
