  Look out London—eccentric antiques dealer Vivian Borne and her daughter Brandy are bringing their own brand of mayhem and mischief to the British capital, in the fifteenth installment of the award-winning Trash ‘n’ Treasures cozy mystery series. 
  Vivian Borne—true-crime author, antiques dealer, and ex-sheriff of Serenity, Iowa—is looking forward to meeting her new editor in London. Flying first class, rooms at the Savoy … her long-suffering co-author, daughter Brandy, worries the trip will bankrupt them both, but the alternative—Mother travelling alone—is unthinkable. Brandy’s almost tempted to make her fiancé, Tony—Serenity’s Chief of Police—call Scotland Yard and warn them Vivian’s coming. 
  But even Brandy doesn’t predict their vacation will end in murder … or that she and Mother will be unceremoniously ejected from the country, with an order to leave things well alone. 
  Vivian and Brandy need a case to write about, and Mother doesn’t care which one. But as the intrepid sleuths—ably supported by doggy detective Sushi—investigate a promising local prospect, they’re plunged into a complex mystery that stretches right back to London … with no choice but to carry on. 
  Looking for a laugh-out-loud, quirky mystery to brighten your mood? Trash ‘n’ Treasures is “one of the funniest cozy series going” (Ellery Queen magazine)—and if you’re new to the series, it’s safe to jump right in. Then if you just can’t get enough, Antiques Foe and Antiques Liquidation are available on audio now!

  FATE – Eventually, Everything Connects 
  BOOK 2 of 3 in the DEMON GORGE TRILOGY (Sequel to Room of Death) 
  “Oh, my God, I remember that trial now. She was the girl convicted of killing her infant cousin so that she could inherit his property, of which she was the next heir. Did your father know these facts before he agreed to take her on as a servant here at your place?” 
  “Yes, he did,” she said with a faint voice. 
  “Oh, my goodness. That trial was in all the papers. I can’t understand how your father could endure the presence of such a mad killer under the same roof as you. I don’t know how he could even subject you to such danger. No wonder you never smile.” 
  “Oh, you have it wrong. My father believes that though she was convicted of the crime, she was not guilty,” said the young woman in a faint voice. 
  “You say this, Aurora, that your father believes this. From everything I read in the papers, the evidence that proved her guilt was overwhelming. There wasn’t a loophole in the trial whatsoever.” 
  “That’s so true. But you sit there agreeing to have Jack Dannells provide private service for my father and then turn around and find that poor girl who was only fourteen years old guilty of a crime which she could not think up much less plan. We know that Elise Austin is no felon,” said Aurora. 
  “I don’t know, Aurora. You and your father seem to have a boundless charity to the criminals.”

  A detective is drawn to a newly widowed woman in this "darkly funny" British murder mystery in the Gold Dagger Award–winning series (Kirkus Reviews). 
   
   
    
  With his partner away on a honeymoon, Yorkshire detective Andrew Dalziel tries to beat the blues by taking a vacation of his own. But after getting caught in a torrential rain and running into a funeral procession, he winds up accompanying a crowd of upper-class mourners to a crumbling country house. 
   
   
    
  Dalziel isn't known for his elegant manners, but he has bigger problems than not fitting in: The owner of the home has died under unusual circumstances, and soon more bodies are turning up. And while Dalziel finds himself undeniably attracted to the widow, he knows that she, and everyone in the family, is a suspect. 
   
   
    
  "Hill's high standards of humor and civilized characterization are intact here, and justice and ambiguity are served in satisfactory fashion." —Publishers Weekly
