Willow debuted in 2007, when her standalone Danish book Den tjekkiske forbindelse (The Czech connection) was published. She has authored lots of book series; but her highly-rated works are the Jack Ryder series and, in this context, the Eva Rae Thomas Mystery series whose earliest book is titled Don’t Lie to Me that Buoy Media initially published in April 2019.

In Don’t Lie to Me, the protagonist is ex-FBI special agent and divorcee Eva Ra Thomas. The mother of three rebellious children: juvenile Alex, pre-teenager Christine, and teenager Olivia. Eva—alongside her one-time lover, policeman and single father Matt Miller—is investigating crimes against children, ranging from killings to kidnappings. These case include the kidnapping of a politician’s son. Worse still, there is the camping-related molesting and violent death of the much-admired, up-and-coming surfer and female scout pre-teenager Sophie Williams. Soon they discover that the victims are divorcees’ children or with irresponsible mothers, and that her traumatized mother Julie is an accessory to Eva’s homicidal step-father.

What You Did is the second book in the Eva Rae Thomas Mystery series. Initially published in June 2019; In What You Did, Eva is pulled off her personal investigation into her then juvenile missing sister Sydney, apparently hidden by their real father; notably, she teams up with Matt in an investigation into the post-prom night kidnapping—and killing of one—of four high schooling girls, blackmail, and renal unit attack. The ensuing investigation results in locating Sydney, but the involved psychopathic criminal is a human trafficker nicknamed Iron Fist—he is avenging his dead brother on Eva—who retaliates by kidnapping her daughter Olivia.

In Never Ever; Eva—alongside the newly-found Sydney—is pursuing her daughter Olivia’s kidnapper Iron Fist who responds with a terror attack in Miami’s commuter rail, where Olivia may be among the casualties.
