Monet Monet Monet

Alan McQueen

Summary

Since the old folk left Summervale they moved to different parts of the country and different parts of the world. As Oliver and Olivia visit their old counterparts and in particular H and Trisha, they discover that the team are putting together another job.
But why? They have plenty of money. What is the reason?
Well, the team is to steal a Monet that will sell for many millions.
The painting they want could be worth $50,000,000.
What are the Summervale crew to do? They find the painting, work out how to steal it, replace it with a copy, give another copy to a slimy art dealer then replace the original back to its home.
Not too much to work out for a group of OAPs then.

The Bell Tolls

R. Franklin James

Hollis Morgan has survived imprisonment, received a pardon, and persevered to finally become a probate attorney. Tough as she is, her newest case will test her mettle. She discovers her client, Matthias Bell, is a deceased blackmailer whose last wish was to return damaging documents, letting his victims off the hook. It falls to Hollis to give them the good news. But it becomes apparent that Bell was murdered, and the victims of “Bell’s tolls” are now suspects. Hollis’s white-collar criminal past has left her with keen survival instincts. A gifted liar, she knows a liar when she sees one. A lot of people in this case are lying—and one is a killer.

On top of that, she’s also representing a dying stripper—a wealthy widow whose estranged daughter spurns her attempts at reconciliation but whose husband sees the potential inheritance as mending all wounds.

Clients aside, Hollis is defensive and wary. Her mother, who hasn’t spoken to her for years, needs a kidney, and Hollis is a match, but neither are ready to put away the past. With Hollis’s fiancé and emotional support off on an undercover mission for Homeland Security, she must count on her own survival instincts. She is swept along on an emotional roller coaster as her absent love and her family’s coldness take their own toll. Work is her salvation. The specter of a killer keeps her focused. Hollis has always had to rely on her wits, but now she finds that others who don’t have her well-being in mind are relying on them as well.

Storm's Nightmare

Some nightmares never end... 
When a confidential informant hands FBI Agent Amelia Storm the flash drive containing the information he gave her brother Trevor before he was killed, Amelia realizes she’s holding a time bomb waiting to explode. Especially when its contents reveal the extent to which the senator on the FBI’s radar has infiltrated Chicago’s law enforcement system. 
But Amelia’s investigation into her brother’s murder is put on the back burner when the body of a young girl with her eyes gruesomely removed is found in the trunk of a black Nissan scheduled for processing at a local junkyard. Better yet, the salvage yard is run by the Leónes, the mafia family suspected to be behind Trevor’s death. 
Is the murderer tied to the Leónes...or a serial killer smart enough to dump his victims in a mafia-affiliated junkyard? The only thing Amelia knows for sure is the clock is ticking before the killer strikes again. 
From the wickedly dark minds of Mary Stone and Amy Wilson comes Storm’s Nightmare, book eight of the Amelia Storm Series. But beware. Sometimes the eyes aren’t the windows of the soul, but the reflection of something more sinister.
