Shattered Dreams: A gritty urban mystery set in Leicester (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781800557994)

Another thrilling mystery featuring DI Rohan Sharma! For fans of James Patterson, J M Dalgliesh, Karin Slaughter and Peter May.

Two very different corpses are discovered ... but is there a connection?

When a body is found in Charnwood Forest in Leicestershire, Detective Inspector Rohan Sharma is called to the scene.

But before he can get there, a young woman arrives on his doorstep, saying she is scared for her life and asking for his help.

Before he can take down her details, she runs away.

And when Sharma reaches the crime scene, what he finds leaves him bewildered.

The prone body lying on the ground is of a man in full diving gear. He looks to have been dead for a while, but there is no obvious cause of death.

And before long, a second body is discovered, this time in the local river. It is a naked woman, with her head and hands missing.

Her build is similar to that of the mysterious woman on Sharma's doorstep. But there is nothing to identify her.

Are the two deaths connected? Can Sharma and his team discover the identities of the two victims?

Or could they be about to unravel something even more disturbing...?

SHATTERED DREAMS is a page-turning gritty urban police procedural set in Leicester and peppered with black humour. It is the second book in the Inspector Sharma Thriller series.

'A compelling story, rich in sensory imagery and detail that brings the multicultural setting to life. C.V. Chauhan's refreshingly normal hero detective weaves an increasingly edgy path through the complexities of several gruesome murders. Kept me turning the pages.' Elizabeth Bailey, author of the Lady Fan series.

'Beautifully written, so rich with visual description that made me want to step into the pages and be part of it. Added to that, C.V. Chauhan has delivered a storyline peppered with interesting facts and plot twists. What more could you ask for!' Michael Fowler, author of the DS Hunter Kerr series.

'A powerful story that kept me on the edge of my seat from the first page until the last. C V Chauhan has created not just a fascinating hero that the reader becomes devoted to with each story that passes but also a world in which details are everything. His ability to create a world from the smallest of details and descriptions is as powerful as a camera zooming in on the smallest spots in a film. An exciting tale and I can't wait for the next in the series.' Adele Jordan, author of the Kit Scarlett series
