Summary

A hit woman moves from London’s seedy criminal underworld into the realm of Cold War spies and targeted killings . . .  
 
London 1967. A working girl is brutally murdered in a Soho club. Rina Walker takes out the killer—and attracts the attention of a sinister line-up of gangland enforcers with a great deal to prove. 
 
But when a member of British Military Intelligence becomes aware of her failure to fulfill a contract, issued by an inmate of Broadmoor, he forces her into the equally deadly arena of the Cold War, with orders to kill an enemy agent. Now Rina must call upon all her skills, not simply to survive but to protect the ones she loves.

    The Heir of Redclyffe (1853) was the first of Charlotte M. Yonge's bestselling romantic novels. Its religious tone derives from the High Church background of her family and from her friendship with a leading figure in the Oxford Movement, John Keble, who closely supervised the writing of the book. The germ of its plot was suggested by her friend Marianne Dyson. (Summary from Wikipedia)

    A heinous murder in a beautiful English garden makes for a “gripping . . . surprising” British crime procedural from the author of the Inspector Peach novels (Publishers Weekly).   Dennis Cooper leads an idyllic life as curator of the national historical site, Westbourne Park. What could be better than overseeing the spectacular flowering grounds, supervising its popular restaurant, and making sure the daily throngs of tourists leave happy? But when Gloucestershire’s Superintendent John Lambert and Detective Sergeant Bert Hook visit the serene landmark, there’s only one site they care to see: Dennis’s dead body in a pond at the edge of the gardens.   The suspects are growing wild: Dennis’s philandering wife and her lover; the restaurant’s nerve-fried staff; a new young intern from Glasgow; and a shady gardener with a violent temper. It’s clear someone held a grudge. Less clear is Dennis’s own shady past. And Lambert and Hook are determined to dig it up.
