  1908, Long Island: For Millie Turner, the young and beautiful wife of a powerful New York stockbroker, Rose Briar Hall—a gleaming edifice of white marble on the North Shore—is more than a home. Every lavish detail speaks of Charles Turner’s status and wealth, and its stylish interior is testament to Millie's sophistication. All that’s left is to prove her worthiness to be his bride. What better way than to throw a grand party for New York’s social elite? 
   
   
   
  After painstaking planning, the night of the event arrives and all is perfection—until Millie wakes to a cold, eerily quiet house, and a gray cloud where her memory should be. Can it be true that she has been in and out of consciousness for weeks, ever since the party took a terrifying turn? Millie recalls nothing. But her friends have shunned her, and it soon becomes clear that if she can't find out what really happened that night, much more than her reputation will be at risk . . . 
   
   
   
  As the house that promised so much happiness begins to feel more like a prison, Millie wonders whether a woman alone, even a wealthy one, can ever be entirely safe. And if she succeeds in finding the truth, will it bring relief, or shake her marriage, and her life, to the core?

  A nice family in Florida is rocked to their core when their precious twelve-year-old daughter, Skylar, is abducted. Her father, Dr. Jack De La Croix, becomes aware of a quirky private investigator from Phoenix named Blake Moran – who had great success in the Kate Walker murder case and had found Kate’s murderer. With the national attention this case received, it helped Dr. Jack to get passed Blake’s less than stellar tagline, “We Find Stuff – clearly Blake was extremely good at what he does. The perpetrator is smart and careful, causing Blake to look all over the state of Florida, but with his FBI sidekick Winston, he works to find the perp and bring Skylar home. But who will win before Skylar’s time runs out?

  Mia Strauss is trying to be a good mother. She’s worked hard to build a stable life since losing her memory at eighteen when an assailant pushed her from the third-story landing of her parents’ gold coast mansion. But lately, Mia is losing control and feels she’s being watched wherever she goes. She is taking more and more of her prescription drugs to quiet the rising panic and anxiety. But when her husband, Alexander, comes home to find her face down on their living room floor, she’s at risk of losing her girls. 
  Alexander Strauss, neuropsychologist and professor at Columbia University, can no longer trust his wife. Her behavior and moods have grown evermore erratic. She takes plenty of medication but doesn’t make any progress. She has become a danger to herself, and their children. It is believed that Mia will never be able to remember, but Alexander has other ideas. Based on her recent brain images, Alexander is confident Mia’s continued amnesia is psychological. She doesn’t want to remember. He gives her an ultimatum, either she gets real help, or he’ll leave her and take the girls. 
  Desperate to save her marriage and keep her family, Mia signs up for a therapy she’s never tried—an experimental treatment that hypothesizes psilocybin may help traumatized patients process and recover their forgotten lives. But as Mia makes progress and her history begins to take shape, it becomes apparent that those closest to Mia never want her to remember what happened that night. 
  And they’ll do whatever it takes to stop the truth from being uncovered.

  They say knowledge is power. For newly minted PhD Rowena Halley, all her book learning isn’t enough to keep her safe. She’ll have to rely on her Moscow-honed street smarts instead. 
  Get the first four books in the Doctor Rowena Halley series and three bonus companion novellas in one boxed set! 
  "Brilliantly-written and highly entertaining, a must read..." The Prairies Book Review 
  "A charming blend of academic inspection and social commentary that weaves an engrossing personal perspective into a blend of social observation and evolving romance." D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review 
  Meet Rowena Halley, a former human rights activist turned academic. Rowena thought teaching on US college campuses would be a lot safer than interviewing torture victims in Russia. Boy, was she wrong. 
  Rowena quickly gets caught up in campus intrigue that threatens to turn deadly. Meanwhile, the life and lover she thought she’d left behind in Moscow might not be so firmly back in the past as she’d believed. 
  Written by a Russian professor with extensive insider knowledge of the topic, these books take a deep dive into the dark underbelly of American higher education. Serious and satirical in turn, they combine mystery, dark humor, and a touch of romance in a searingly funny examination of contemporary American and Russian society. 
  *Content warning*: These books contain adult language—and have the one-star reviews to prove it. Worse than that, they have been accused of peddling philosophy and political science. You’ve been warned.
