Shifting Focus

Shifting Focus the Third Novel in the Catherine Winter Series "Greed, power, and sex-that's all some strive for, all they desire. And eventually it destroys-or kills. Welcome to the world of entertainment, Hollywood style." -Catherine Winter, Private Investigator The divorce of a gifted singer and songwriter leads Catherine Winter into the dark shadows of drugs, sex, and power. Determined to find the killer of an entertainment attorney to Hollywood's elite, Catherine discovers the multifarious and convoluted connections between several people as she searches for truth and justice. Working closely with the Los Angeles Police Department, and teaming up with former cop and private investigator, Joe Copp, the hunt is on to find a killer. Catherine Winter has seen it all in her many years as a Southern California private investigator, and now in her sixties, she's as determined and dedicated as ever. "Linda Pendleton's first private eye novel is a brilliant debut. Shattered Lens is good enough I hope it becomes a series." -Richard S. Prather, Author of the Shell Scott Mystery Series.

"Hollywood is glitter and gutter. Some make it to the top and stay there, basking in the splendor of it, while others hit bottom and are engulfed by the ugliness of it." Catherine Winter, Private Investigator In Shattered Lens, the stalking of two young professional print models leads private investigator Catherine Winter into the dark and dirty shadows of Hollywood's entertainment elite. Portraits of these people become distorted and out of focus as murder, pornography, illicit drugs, and blackmail color the view while Catherine searches for truth and justice. Catherine, now widowed and in her early sixties, insists, "As long as arthritis doesn't lock up my joints or my eyes don't keep me from hitting the bulls-eye with a .357 slug then my shingle will stay on my door, 'C. Winter, Private Investigator.'" "Linda Pendleton's first private-eye novel is a brilliant debut." Richard S. Prather, Author of the Shell Scott Mystery Series.

On one cold winter's eve, two broken souls meet through unfortunate circumstances. Tragically deformed and disillusioned toward the world of his fellow men, Erik must learn compassion for the young woman in his care. Christine must overcome the fear the streets of Paris have instilled within her upon the death of her guardian. Sometimes healing can only be found in the arms of another. -X- Her eyes welled once more and she shook her head slowly. "No. It is..." She sniffled loudly, putting aside her bowl and wrapping her arms around herself tightly. "There are cruel men who like to..." She seemingly could not give voice to what perversions the men of Paris were inclined to inflict on her. "I am well aware of just how cruel men can be." Her eyes rose to meet his, and for a brief moment he felt she could truly see him. Her eyes roamed over his mask, and for the first time he did not begrudge her for it. "What is your name?" He gave a slight smile though he knew she could not see it. "My name is Erik."

The New York Times bestselling author of Wintering writes a life-affirming exploration of wild landscapes, what it means to be different and, above all, how we can all learn to make peace with our own unquiet minds . . . In anticipation of her 38th birthday, Katherine May set out to walk the 630-mile South West Coast Path. She wanted time alone, in nature, to understand why she had stopped coping with everyday life; why motherhood had been so overwhelming and isolating; and why the world felt full of expectations she couldn't meet. She was also reeling from a chance encounter with a voice on the radio that sparked her realisation that she might be autistic. And so begins a trek along the rug...
