Summary

A murder in upstate NY leads a young woman to search for answers among one of the region’s most powerful families in this romantic thriller. 
 
Sally Montgomery’s romantic getaway in the Hudson Valley is brutally cut short when her companion, Frederick Pierson, is murdered. Now Sally is on the run from the police—and the killer. In desperation, she turns to her ex-husband, a former NYPD detective, and their daughter Devon, a veterinarian who inherited her father’s investigative instincts.  
 
Devon’s search for the truth leads her straight to Blake Pierson, the handsome, enigmatic heir apparent to the powerful Pierson clan. But with his family’s empire threatened, whose side is Blake on? Racing the clock, Devon must prove her mother’s innocence and outmaneuver the killer before her tactics put her in the wrong place—with no time left to lose . . .

    Sequel to Lethal Attachments
    
    A new case comes barreling into the D&K agency when they least expect it which has Doyle and Kord exploring the steamy byways of leather and kink in Philly.
    
    It's election season for KinkLink, the largest regional leather and fetish organization in the Philadelphia area. But someone is trying to kill the candidates. Two have been hospitalized and others have been threatened. Is it the young faction working to eliminate the Old Guard, or is there some other dark conspiracy behind all the violence?
    
    Doyle directs the investigation and assigns Kord an undercover role to attend events as a person looking to find his place in the kink and fetish world. Kord, at first reluctant, becomes eager for this assignment and begins his search with the pups and handlers group. Here he encounters one of the pups who is running for president, a tough, do-whatever-it-takes competitor. Kord finds himself learning not only about the pups but all about himself, as well.
    
    For his part, Doyle investigates openly and hopes that between his work and Kord's they will find out what's going on and stop it. During Doyle's investigation, he falls under the spell of the hot and seductive Mick O'Connor, another presidential candidate. While enchanted by O'Connor, Doyle learns a lot about his own desires and needs, too.
    
    Suddenly another candidate is attacked and killed. Yet another is beaten. The investigation moves into high gear while fear grips the community. But will Doyle and Kord find the culprit before more candidates are murdered? Can they solve the case and keep their relationship intact?

    "The Yellow Face", one of the 56 short Sherlock Holmes stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is the third tale from The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes. It was first published in Strand Magazine in 1893 with original illustrations by Sidney Paget.
    Sherlock Holmes, suffering from boredom due to a want of cases, returns home from a walk with Dr. Watson early in spring to find he has missed a visitor but that the caller has left his pipe behind. From it, Holmes deduces that he was disturbed of mind (because he forgot the pipe); that he valued it highly (because he had repaired, rather than replaced it, when it was broken); that he was muscular, left-handed, had excellent teeth, was careless in his habits and was well-off.

    An engineer, Victor Hatherley, attends Dr Watson's surgery after his thumb is chopped off, and recounts his tale to Watson and Holmes. Hatherley had been hired for 50 guineas to repair a machine he was told compressed Fuller's earth into bricks. Hatherley was told to keep the job confidential, and was transported to the job in a carriage with frosted glass, to keep the location secret. He was shown the press, but on closer inspection discovered a "crust of metallic deposit" on the press, and he suspected it was not being used for compressing earth. He confronted his employer, who attacked him, and during his escape his thumb is chopped off. Holmes deduces that the press is being used to produce counterfeit coins, and works out its location. However, when they arrive, the house is on fire, and the criminals have escaped.
