  Charlie Henry is the proud new owner of the Three Balls pawnshop, having recently returned Stateside from special-ops work in Iraq. The transition back to normal life seems to be going smoothly for him and his Army buddy and co-owner of the shop, Gordon Sweeney—until Gina, Charlie's childhood friend, gets shot in a transaction for information from the previous owner of Three Balls. Gordon rushes to help Gina as she bleeds on the sidewalk, while Charlie roars off on a chase to catch the shooter.  The shooter gets away, and as they dig deeper, they find that the shooting has to do with Howard Baza, the previous owner of the pawnshop, and his rather questionable morals. The Albuquerque Police Department reluctantly lets the two ex-soldiers lend a hand with the investigation. Along the way they get tangled up in gang rivalries and led astray by false identities. They discover that nothing is what it seems, and almost no one is who they appear to be.

  Murder in Treggan Bay

  Treggan Bay is the kind of place where everyone knows who has keys to what. In May 1996, a body on the village library floor turns a simmering dispute into a reckoning. 
  London journalist Noah Yalland returns to South Devon to clear his late mother’s cliff-top cottage, planning to sell and go. The Landmark Syndicate’s proposed waterside villas have already split neighbours; when their envoy, Frank Cullen, is found bludgeoned, suspicion falls on the locals who challenged him the night before. 
  Eileen Thorne—village librarian and former registrar—sees her quiet order upended as Sergeant Scott Langdon starts asking sharp questions. Noah, who had his own run-in with Cullen, is suddenly far more than a witness. 
  This is a pre-digital mystery: answers live in parish registers, council minutes, sign-in books, and remembered alibis. Noah wants to do right by his father and keep Leo, the new café owner, out of the developers’ crosshairs… even as long-buried records, generational feuds, and a growing pull towards Leo complicate every choice. 
  With gossip moving faster than facts and the bay’s future on the line, can the truth surface before the wrong person pays—or before the deal becomes impossible to stop? 
  A cosy, character-led coastal whodunnit with fair-play cluework, found family, and a queer slow burn (fade-to-black intimacy). First in the Treggan Bay Mysteries; reads cleanly as a standalone.

  A Limited Run is an incredibly gripping story, with a delicious edge of creepiness. I couldn't stop reading it—easily one of my favorites this year! Another masterpiece from McQuestion! - Freida McFadden, #1 Amazon Bestselling Author When billionaire Felix Worthington invites the five cast members of the TV show A Little Slice of Haven to recreate their roles twenty-five years later, they're initially skeptical. It's an unusual request, even for a self-professed superfan like Felix. For several of them, playing a member of the Barlow family in the small town of Haven in the 1940s was an experience best forgotten. Meri Wetzel, who played a loving wife and mother, has spent the last two decades avoiding her TV husband, Jeff. And the actors who played their children each harbor festering resentments of their own. But living in a recreated version of the town in a warehouse in Montana has its appeal, even knowing they'll be filmed with hidden cameras as they improvise with other actors playing the townspeople. And the clincher? Two million dollars for each of them, provided they stay all ten days and remain in character the entire time. One by one, they set aside their hesitations and agree to the terms. After all, with two million dollars they'd be set for life, and really, what could go wrong?

  Facing threats to her fiancé, and an Interpol general using her criminal past to blackmail her, Maze devises a take-down of her entire family. The only thing worse than dragging the people she loves into her battle is discovering the sinister reason the Grant family wants the heirloom journal to remain buried. 
  From San Francisco to Paris, twists and turns take Maze through grave danger with vengeful criminals. Once the final showdown takes place in Scotland, murder is on everyone's mind.
