Stansted author AJ Campbell has written her third book, called Search No Further, and it could follow previous successes into the top of the reading charts.
All three novels will soon become available as a spoken option to listen to, after publisher WF Howes purchased the audiobook rights.
Amanda, whose pen name is AJ Campbell, is promising "twists, turns and torment" in the psychological family drama.
The novel is about glamorous Cara De Rosa who seems to have it all. When she collapses during a family party, all signs point to a heart attack, but does someone want Cara dead? Granddaughter Sienna is determined to get the answer.
AJ's online launch party takes place via Facebook Live on Thursday December 16 at 8pm, with Christmas themed 'swag boxes' as prizes. See: Facebook.com/AJCampbellauthor
Mum of three AJ said she's had really good feedback on her writing so far, and is delighted at how readers have got involved via her online bookclub called Novels and Natter.
AJ said: "The first two books are stand-alone but in a series. This [third book] is a complete stand-alone book.
"I'm still doing my bookclub Novels and Natter - that's going really well. It's open to anyone to join on Facebook.
"I'm now writing book four!"
