All That Glitters

John Anthony Miller

Sinopsis

Belgium, 1940, during the German invasion. Camille Bonnet accepts an impossible challenge: steal the most valuable industrial diamonds in the world from an Antwerp bank before the Germans get them.
 
Needed for advanced technology the Allied war effort demands, the diamonds are secured in an impregnable basement vault. As Germans swarm the city, Camille sneaks into Antwerp, breaches the vault, and steals the diamonds. Her escape launches the most intense hunt in military history, almost certain to fail.
 
Chased by allies, enemies, crooks, and con artists, she confronts a complex cast of characters: a Gestapo major who hates people but loves animals, a drunken doctor who lost his wife and daughter in an accident, a Parisian housewife linked to the upper echelons of the Nazi Party, and an American double agent.
 
Her mission is to deliver the diamonds to Paris before the Germans capture France... and untangle friend from foe while doing so.
 
A historical thriller with non-stop action, John Anthony Miller's 'All That Glitters' is a story of love, honor, intrigue, and betrayal.

Goat Farm Gambit The: A Cozy...

Hoang Nguyen

🐐 Dairy goat farmer and cheesemaker Nanny Nightingale is preparing for the County Fair when her prize-winning baby goat is kidnapped and the fair's dairy judge—a notoriously strict official with shady connections—is found dead in her barn, surrounded by suspiciously chewed competition documents. The police suspect a rival farmer, but Nanny notices the tooth marks don't match her goats and the victim's scoring sheets contain coded symbols about milk quality manipulation. With her farm under scrutiny and the farming community butting heads, Nanny must hoof it to solve the case. Assisted by her 4-H dairy club and the handsome veterinary odontologist analyzing tooth impressions, Nanny uncovers a scheme involving goat identity theft, fraudulent milk records, and a sophisticated operation switching premium breeding stock. From suspicious hoof prints that reveal unfamiliar animals to milk composition that doesn't match the breed standards, every clue tells a story. But when Nanny discovers the victim was systematically sabotaging small dairy operations to drive them out of business, she realizes the killer is protecting family farms more valuable than any blue ribbon. With the county fair approaching and the real goat-napper still milking the situation, Nanny must separate the truth from the whey before her own farm gets permanently curdled.
