Stormfront

In Stormfront, Valerie Stone navigates a complex investigation that leads her into a web of blackmail and deceit, testing her resolve and independence.

In Stormfront, we meet Valerie Stone, a woman who values her independence and simplicity. With only a vintage Jaguar and an old watch to her name, she navigates life on her own terms. Living on a houseboat along the Thames, she indulges in French cigarettes and maintains a careful distance from romantic entanglements. Her life as a private detective is marked by a string of investigations that keep her afloat financially, though times have been tough lately. A potential windfall from an insurance case offers hope for a better future, at least temporarily.

The narrative takes a turn when a body washes ashore on the south coast, initially appearing to be a case of misadventure. However, Valerie soon realizes that the situation is far more complex than it seems. As she delves deeper into the investigation, she finds herself entangled with a shadowy organization that resorts to blackmail to achieve its goals. This unexpected twist adds layers of tension and urgency to her already precarious situation.

As Valerie grapples with the unfolding chaos, the line between truth and deception blurs, leading her and those close to her into a tempest of danger and intrigue. Stormfront is a gripping tale that explores the depths of human ambition and the lengths one will go to uncover the truth amidst a storm of silence and misinformation.
