  They say she's a murderer. She says nothing. 
   
  London, 1954. Eva Georgiou has just returned from her shift at the glamorous Café de Paris, when she's summoned to her second job: Greek interpreter for the Metropolitan Police. There, she is tasked with representing Zina Pavlou, a Cypriot woman who has been accused of the brutal murder of her daughter-in-law who has been bludgeoned, strangled and then set alight. 
   
  Eva gets to work as Zina's translator, but her concern grows that the case may be more complicated than it seems. Then Zina changes everything when she reveals she's been accused of murder once before, years ago in Cyprus. 
   
  While Eva's obsession with the case deepens, so does her bond with Zina. And soon she will discover that when you lend your voice to an accused murderer, it comes at a devastating cost. 
   
  A compelling historical crime audiobook set in the Greek diaspora of 1950s London - that's inspired by a true story - The Unspeakable Acts of Zina Pavlou is perfect for fans of Sara Collins, Eve Chase and Jessie Burton. 
  'Tense. Moving. Morally complex. Zina Pavlou is wholly unforgettable.' Rachel Rhys

  FRANCE, ROMANCE, TRUFFLE DOGS…AND A SOUPÇON OF DANGER! 
  A bit like Eat Pray Love meets murder mystery, Lise McClendon’s second Bennett Sisters mystery chronicles the traditional hunt for priceless European truffles, the unexpected thrill of romance overseas, the ups and downs of sisterly bonding rituals, and murderous intrigue in the heart of France. 
  Law practice is in the Bennett sisters' blood—along with designer suits and stilettos. But they've decided to ditch the more predictable Caribbean cruise or spa weekend at a five star hotel to celebrate Merle Bennett's 50th birthday hiking the French countryside of Dordogne. Merle, for her part, could use the break from her boyfriend James back in New York City. Plus there’s the endless horizon of roses and vineyards, the scent of lavender, the delicate karma of sisterhood—resplendent with its bickering and gossip—and, oh yes, the wine. 
  There’s just one catch: Merle’s little sister Francie has decided to bring along a sixth wheel: a work colleague named Gillian Sargent, whose utter aloofness wouldn’t be so bad were it not peppered by constant singing, an unwanted accompaniment to the idyllic French landscape. It’s not just that Gillian throws off the finely tuned five-spoke Bennett sister spin: truth be told, Merle can’t seem to find a single redeeming quality about her. 
  Somewhere along the walking trail, Gillian stumbles upon an injured dog— possibly a missing truffle hunter--and after several days of puzzling behavior, she and the pooch disappear without a trace. As if this weren’t drama enough, Merle’s boyfriend shows up unannounced—as does her French lover. Zut alors! And yet…Vive la France! 
  The Girl in the Empty Dress is a delicate mix of sisterly laughs and international intrigue, sure to delight cozy mystery fans and armchair travelers alike.

  Some family heirlooms are priceless. Others come with ghosts and a to-do list. 
  Julie Hayward’s life is spiraling into sitcom territory minus the laugh track. Her once-charming family estate is a money pit with a roof held together by sheer willpower. Her pompous, soon-to-be ex-fiancé thinks selling it is the only sane option.  
  Enter Gustavia, her best friend and self-proclaimed spiritual advisor, who decides Julie needs a psychic reading to set her life straight. Instead of vague fortune-cookie wisdom, Julie’s dead grandparents show up to say there’s a treasure hidden in the house. And, lucky her, it’s now her job to find it. 
  What Julie doesn’t have is a map, instructions, or the first clue where to start. What she does have is a dream team of friends: Gustavia, Queen of woo woo; Amethyst, an aura-reading DIYer; and Kat, a blind psychic who still somehow knows when you’re rolling your eyes.  
  Add in Tyler Kingsley, a charming historian with a swoon-worthy smile and an inconvenient habit of making Julie rethink her entire life, and things are about to get very interesting. 
  Now, when Julie’s neck-deep in cryptic clues for a treasure hunt that’s equal parts Indiana Jones and home improvement nightmare, her slimy ex-fiancé pops back up, bringing trouble with him. Between dodging his schemes, searching the house, and wondering if Tyler’s crooked grin might actually be flirting, Julie’s in over her head.  
  If Julie doesn’t solve the mystery, she might lose everything—including the house, her friends, and maybe even her chance at happily ever after.
