"Thriller addicts won't be disappointed"
"Steve Sheppard has created another great character in Mel Milano."

Three years ago, Mel Milano was an MI5 intelligence officer with a promising career. Then, during a routine protection and surveillance operation in Wales, things went drastically wrong and three people died, including Mel’s partner and fiancé, Liam Webster.
Drummed out of the service on trumped-up charges by MI5 Deputy Director, Sarah Brook, Mel lost her career, her self-respect, her confidence and her fiancé. Nothing made sense.
Three years on, she is rebuilding her life, working for a private security outfit.
But she’s never forgiven the way she was dumped by MI5. One day she’ll discover the truth about Brook and what was really going on.
Now, though, it’s clear that Mel’s not the only one still holding a grudge. Suddenly everybody seems to want her dead. But why?
On the run from MI5, is there anyone Mel can trust to help her uncover the past?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Steve had his first book, A Very Important Teapot, published (by Claret Press) in 2019. He was 66 at the time. One of his many regrets is that it didn't happen when he was 26 but he spent 40 years not realising that the two keys to writing a successful novel are (a) "making it up as you go along" and (b) becoming a celebrity first, as that makes it much easier to sell books.

He has now "made up" four more books, Bored to Death in the Baltics (2021), Poor Table Manners (2024), Lazytown (2025) and, just published, False Connections. The first three books form the Dawson & Lucy Series of Spy Thrillers with laughs, set respectively in Australia, Estonia and South Africa.

Lazytown is a standalone comedy murder mystery set in an eccentric English village.

False Connections is a UK based thriller with some humour.

If you like laughs, thrills, mystery, confusion and twists, these might be for you.

Give them a go and if you enjoy them, please let Steve know by posting a review.

Thrills and laughs: a winning combination.

Thank you

False Connections is a fast-paced, twist-filled thriller that I couldn't put down. In characteristic Sheppard style, the book is plot driven, but witty and clever too. I've enjoyed all of his books and hope to see his new protagonist Mel again soon!
