Debrah (D.B) Martin

Debrah (D.B) Martin

About

I would describe myself as the ultimate multi-tasker. Sometimes I even have to remind myself who I am for the day! That’s because I write under three different pen names and in three very different genres.

As Debrah Martin I write literary fiction. I also plot fast-paced and compelling thrillers as D.B. Martin and of course also pen my YA teen detective series as Lily Stuart.

So why not stick to just one name and one genre?

Variety is the spice of life, I reckon - and I have all these ideas – they have to come out somehow! My past careers have spanned two businesses, teaching, running business networking for the University of Winchester and social event management. I now make do with chairing the Wantage (not just Betjeman) Literary Festival in my hometown when I’m not writing. I also have two daughters and a dog to organise. See – more multi-tasking…

Description

<p>Countless years ago, measured in thousands, the Gods came first. Monstrous creations were born of their frivolity. Like the Gods, some of the creations were peaceful, others not. Their duty to preserve the earth completed once more, however, the day came that the Gods had to leave earth. Unleashed and with loose regulation, the abominable creations left behind multiplied. In their midst, another conception came to be, and his kind would exist absolutely outside of the God’s purview.<br />Unmated, alone, and untrusting of others, Chatran was charged to go to a place and protect the father of a great child, yet unborn. This duty, however, was unknown to the most cognizant part of Chatran. Only the Beast, who resided within him, knew. As a result, the Beast led Chatran to Walhalla, North Dakota. Although his initial charge was to protect the father he found there, Chatran also gained a mate and Pack. With them, Chatran also found a new way forward, and started on a course that would lead to – New Alpha Rising: Ascension.</p>

Story Behind The Book

Every dog has his day and Lawrence Juste, QC, once top dog in the UK’s courtrooms, is about to have his worst one ever. With a witness to somehow bring back from the dead and a vulnerable child to protect, there are more victims than ways out of the conspiracy he’s uncovered. To unravel who he can trust, he’s forced to delve deeper into his own family mystery to find out who he and they really are. What he finds is worse than ugly, it’s lethal. Lawrence believes in justice and the law, even if he doesn’t always adhere to them, but this time it seems only the ultimate sacrifice – or a dramatic form of natural justice – can provide what the courtroom can’t. The only question is: which? Patchwork Pieces is the third and final book in the Patchwork People mystery suspense trilogy.

The cold and calculating QC has been swept aside to reveal a Lawrence of a deeper quality – though still just as cunning. The unexpected death of his wife threw his life under a microscope, dragging his past to the light and changing the landscape of his present. Then there was Danny – a young man facing manslaughter…a young man that only Lawrence could help, a young man Lawrence was compelled to help. Then his house burned down.</span><br style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;" /><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">Events have conspired to bring this talented Barrister to this point in time, faced with a truth that will both bless and curse him. The lime light is not the place for one with secrets, yet the press finds the QC’s life…. Hot.</span><br style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;" /><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">It takes a talented author to compose works in so many genres, and do it well. The voice penned in the Patchwork Trilogy speaks differently than the words uttered in the YA novels written under the name Lily Stuart (which, by the way, you should look up). Both tones are unique, displaying a talent that made me enjoy this series even more. While this may be the last in the Trilogy, it can serve as a standalone novel – though digesting the first two volumes lays the groundwork for this startling culmination.&quot;</span></p> <p><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:normal;">From reviews - Amazon</span></p>
