Pinpoint
by Sheila Mary Taylor
Bio:
Sheila
Mary Taylor was born in Cape Town, beneath the
towering slopes of Table
Mountain. From an early
age she yearned to be a novelist but only when her teenage son was diagnosed
with life-threatening cancer did she begin writing in earnest. Those early
scribblings became “Fly With a Miracle” published by Denor Press. With her pen
triggered, she also had four romances published by Thorpe Publishing, then
spent four years editing her mother’s three unpublished novels which Penguin published
and for which Dora Taylor won the South African Posthumous Literary Award.
“Pinpoint”,
is Sheila’s first thriller, and was for three months in the top 100 bestselling
thrillers on Amazon Kindle. Coming soon is a revised edition of “Fly With a
Miracle”, called “Counted”, to be followed by “The Nightingale Will Sing”, a contemporary
romance. Work in progress is “Dead Girls Don’t Dance”, a romantic suspense
thriller set in London and Menorca.

A lawyer, a murderer and a policeman are caught in a tangled web
of love, loss, terror and intrigue when the lawyer realises the murderer may be
a shadow out of her past and an even greater shadow over her future. He is a
serial killer and she may once have loved him more than anyone in the world.
But who is he really? Has
she met him before? Does he hold a key to her lost childhood memories?
When he is duly convicted, he suddenly turns on her in the courtroom and threatens that one day he will wreak his revenge on her.
But why? What has she ever done to him?

Q:
What will e-readers like about your book?
They’ll
like the unique story-line that will have them turning pages furiously as Julia
struggles to decide whether to seek police help, or to go it alone in her
battle to unravel her past and save her daughter.
The
crisp literary style, the cliff-hangers and the clock-ticking construction.
And
the nail-biting climax with the ghastly revelation and twist right at the end.
Q: Why did you go indie?
The
publishing revolution made this seem like the most sensible way to go forward.
Q: Who are your favorite authors in your genre?
Barbara Vine, Ian Rankin and Val McDermid for crime fiction. But I also love Maggie O’Farrell, Charlotte Bronte, William Boyd, Kazuo Ishiguro. And Gerry McCullough, a new indie author of “Belfast Girls” and “Danger Danger”.
