  Set in 1920s Penang, The House of Doors weaves together love, betrayal, and political turmoil through the lives of a British woman and her visiting friend, a celebrated writer seeking inspiration. As secrets from the past resurface—some personal, others drawn from a sensational trial involving a Chinese revolutionary—each character is forced to confront the blurred boundaries between truth and storytelling. Richly atmospheric and layered with history, the novel explores the power of memory and the stories we choose to tell.

  From USA Today Bestselling Author Laura Scott 
  Walking the line between danger and love! 
  Undercover memory loss… 
  Coast Guard Lieutenant Quinn Finnegan is shocked when he rescues his believed to be dead, former fiancée, Sami Lopez out of the middle of Lake Michigan. But even more stunning is the fact that Sami doesn’t remember who she is or why she was crossing the lake in a storm. Since Sami was a former cop, he believes she may have been working undercover in a case that had gone terribly wrong. The boat explosion was no accident. And when the threats against Sami escalate, it’s difficult to know who they should trust. 
  Sami can’t ignore the desperate sense of urgency plaguing her. There is something critically important she needs to do. But what? The only reason she was still alive was thanks to Quinn and his family. Given the attraction between them, it didn’t make sense that she’d left him two years earlier. Will they survive long enough to learn the truth, and have a second chance at love?

  The Detective has been a mainstay of fiction writing ever since we can remember.   
  Their deductive powers, their intuition and fleet-footed grasp of every detail can often turn the unlikeliest situation, or bunch of red herrings, into a breakthrough to capture even the most ingenious and dastardly of criminals. 
  In this series our classic authors explore not only various themes, such as Occult Detectives, Female Detectives, Curious Crimes and a whole host more, but also bring a range and depth to the whole culture of criminality as we send in the Long Arm of the Law to bring justice on behalf of the society it serves.
