Thanks to Rachel’s Random Resources and the author for my digital copy of the book. This is my honest review for the tour.
Where do you hide an escaped prisoner? On a wheelchair holiday perhaps. Like a spoke in a wheel, the villain is seen but not seen.
Aspiring writer Sandy Blee is stuck in a dead-end receptionist job until she wins a working holiday to Jordan, pushing a wheelchair for Wheelchair Warriors Holidays. Even though she quickly realises she was the only entrant in the Blerglergle writing competition she is extremely excited about leaving England for the first time.
However, after arriving in the pink city of Petra she discovers her fellow travellers are not all they seem, and most are not who they claim to be. Moreover, the whole group is under investigation by the SeeMs Detective Agency who have been sent out to search for an escaped convict.
When members of the group are kidnapped and one mysteriously dies, Sandy finds herself pulled into the SeeMs detectives’ investigation. Is she, who so wants to write bestselling crime stories, ready to take on a real-life mystery – one that might just turn deadly?
This book will be enjoyed by readers who like travel crime, plus devotees of Agatha Christie, Grease the movie and MM Kaye
📚📚📚📚📚My Review📚📚📚📚📚📚
A cosy mystery book that is part of a series, this being the sixth book. I have only read the first book, so I did hope that wouldn’t be detrimental to my enjoyment.
Set in Petra, and we meet the Wheelchair Warriors Holiday group. A group of wheelchair bound tourists, on holiday in Petra. Sandy Blee, a woman who just wants to write a book, wins a working holiday… pushing the wheelchair bound tourists around on their holiday. What she doesn’t know is that there is someone in the group masquerading as a disabled person. They are an escaped prisoner, and the SeeMs Detective Agency is on the case! With kidnappings and a death on the cards, Sandy gets dragged into the investigation, but is she ready to actually physically take it on? Or will she discover she prefers to just write about mysteries?
What an eclectic mix of characters! I may not have read all the previous books, but the Wheels of Destruction held my attention well enough! Entertaining and humourous, too, I chuckled my way through while struggling to decide who was the perpetrator of the death and mayhem.
I have to say, I don’t know how I managed to miss, what are probably 5 fabulous books! I do intend to make up for missing the other books, and I shall be returning to the SeeMs Detective Agency as soon as I can

Author Bio
Like many authors Gina has had a lot of different jobs and careers. She has been a physiotherapist, a flying instructor and pilot, a dog breeder, and a journalist. This is her sixth book in the SeeMs Detective series: the agency that looks behind what seems to be true.
Gina had two lengths of time when she was in a wheelchair (after a car crash and a helicopter accident) and having experienced the difficulties of wheel chair travel first hand she wanted to write a book that showed the challenges for wheelchair users when travelling, not just steps and narrow doorways, for example, but unexpected things like the difficulties of traversing cobbles.
When not writing or travelling Gina lives in Sussex with her husband and dogs.
