MYSTERY

AT LAUREL MANOR

MYSTERY AT LAUREL MANOR Ellen Dalton, RN, looked forward to leading the staff of Laurel Manor in the safe and compassionate care of the older adult. She took this job because the previous Director of Nurses had recently died in a terrible accident and Ellen was familiar with the high standards of the home. The only problem she encountered was working with the pharmacy company. The pharmacist irritated her when he insisted on changing the procedure of drug destruction. Matt was grieving over the loss of his beloved sister, the previous leader of that staff. Ellen and Matt’s worlds collided when he questioned the description of her accident and began to investigate. The more involved they became, the more danger they invited

What Readers Say About Us

I was hooked from the very first page. Smith’s world-building of the planet Helura is breathtaking, matching the epic scale shown on the cover. The tension between the rival factions—perfectly encapsulated by those two figures facing off across the cosmic chasm—keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Kristin Watson

Alice Smith weaves a brilliant, terrifying tale of medical suspense. Maya is a fascinatingly complex protagonist, and as her 'list' begins to unfold, you won't know who to trust. It's a bit gory in places, but a total page-turner. A stethoscope on blood-splattered parchment perfectly sets the tone for this psychological thriller.

Ronald Richards

Alice Smith delivers an incredible blend of medical drama and gothic haunting. The cracked Caduceus symbol hovering over the eerie Laurel Manor on the cover is a massive clue to the dark, historical medical secrets hidden within the estate. The atmosphere is thick with dread, the pacing is excellent, and the final twist completely caught me off guard.

Wade Warren

The shadowy, classic detective silhouette contrasted against the vibrant red viral pathogens on the cover perfectly mirrors the book's plot. Silent Assassin feels like a classic noir detective story dropped right into a modern-day bio-terror pandemic. The protagonist's race against an invisible, microscopic killer is relentless. 

Aviana Plummer

As someone who works in healthcare, I loved how grounded yet dramatic Derrick ER felt. The cover perfectly captures the chaotic, rain-slicked adrenaline of an emergency bay at night. Smith does a fantastic job developing the main character, standing strong amidst the flashing ambulance lights and chaos. 

Brian

I bought this entirely for the gorgeous, colorful cover featuring that crystal-sailed ship, and the prose is just as magical. Unlike some of Smith's darker thrillers, a breathtaking, whimsical fantasy adventure through floating islands and crystalline skies. It’s full of wonder, great character dynamics, and pure escapism.
