Sleeping with the Dead is published

ENFIELD, U.K. - Jan. 4, 2015 - PRLog -- About the Book:

Just what happened to two young women who disappeared from a small Blackpool guest house just after the First World War? Their fate has remained a mystery for many years, despite attempts by the husband of the first woman and the prospective husband of the second to find out.

Fast forward to the 1950s. Reverend Bernard Paltoquet and his friend Dr Robbie MacTavish arrive at the same guest house for a fortnight’s holiday.

Their summer break, however, proves very far from restful - Robbie is spooked in the night and Bernard is perpetually bombarded by letters from his redoubtable housekeeper, Mrs Harper.

Other titles in the Reverend Paltoquet Mystery Series are:

The Bockhampton Road Murders
Haunted Christmas
The Possession of November Jones
The Witches of Wandsworth
So Long at the Fair
The Man Who Was Death
The Dark Side of the Mirror

About the Author:

Pat Herbert lives in London, England.  She worked as a typist for a publishing company, based in Blackfriars, then trained to become a Chartered Librarian before working for British Gypsum in London’s West End.  She was always interested in returning to publishing and took on the job of PA to the Managing Director of Thomson Books, which owned publishers including Hamish Hamilton, Michael Joseph and Sphere at the time, before they were taken over by Penguin.

Since then, Pat worked in recruitment and she is currently working part-time for a private cardiac clinic, and writes during her spare time (with her boss’s permission, of course). She is now writing the next suspenseful novel in the Paltoquet mystery series.

Pat loves reading modern crime novels mainly (Peter James, Peter Robinson, Ruth Rendell) and she has an extensive film library.  She was brought up in a cinema as her mother was an usherette, and many of her Paltoquet books lend themselves to the big screen.
