Survival Mode: A Clara Mode Crime Novel

ACTING DETECTIVE SERGEANT CLARA MODE LOVES THE SMELL OF RISK, BUT IS EVERY RISK WORTH TAKING?

Mode lives in a converted van with her freshly permed hair and a slight persecution complex. She knows it’s hard to get respect as a woman in 1982, let alone as the only female detective in the region.

When she is sent to another ‘soft case’ at an archaic boarding school, it becomes clear that there is something more sinister at play. Despite the warnings, she can’t resist her chance to shine…

“An emotive read, set in familiar times and with confronting issues… A well thought out plot propels the pages. A great read for lovers of crime fiction!” Nathan, Indie Book reviewer

"Just finished reading this book. What a great storyline that kept me guessing till the end. So many interesting characters in her book, from Clara Mode the detective fighting for equal status against men in the same job to the sad plight of the young girls in the boarding school. Very confronting but has kept me thinking about life for days. 5/5 from me. A book that is a must read." Colleen Angel, reader
