The Case of the Emperor's Spirit

Anne Lim

Sinossi

An ancient emperor’s spirit – it wants to live forever in this modern world. A Half Immortal with Supernormal Power and her team need to stop it.
In Bama, a flying head has been killing men and sucking out their vital essence. Is this the work of a female ghoul? Or the spirit of Qin Shihuangdi, the cruel First Qin Dynasty Emperor of ancient China?	The spirit has possessed Bama’s premier for three years. Now it seeks a younger body to possess and has chosen the premier’s eldest son.	Dreamy Kim woke up from a lightning strike-induced coma and assumes her role as a Half Immortal with Supernormal Power. She and her semi-divine animal assistants – a shrewd, telepathic cat and a psychic talking parakeet – are recruited to stop the evil spirit. She is also assisted by a practical private investigator. In the course of her investigation, Kim has to interview a ghost. She needs to unseal the memory of the only witness of a spirit summoning ritual. She must also find the missing yang soul of the premier. And in a spy-vs-spy game, she finds out that things don’t always turn out as planned…

A Beautiful Disguise (The...

Roseanna M. White

In Edwardian London, not all that glitters is gold as a lady and an intelligence officer's secret mission take them from the city's dazzling ballrooms to its covert intelligence offices.

Sir Merritt Livingstone has spent a decade serving the monarch in the field, but when pneumonia lands him behind a desk in the War Office Intelligence Division just as they're creating a new secret intelligence branch, he's intent on showing his worth. He suspects an aristocrat of leaking information to Germany as tensions mount between the two countries, but he needs someone to help him prove it, so he turns to The Imposters, Ltd. No one knows who they are, but their results are beyond compare.

Left with an estate on the brink of bankruptcy after their father's death, Lady Marigold Fairfax and her brother open a private investigation firm for the elite to spy on the elite. Dubbed The Imposters, Ltd., their anonymous group soon becomes the go-to for the crème of society who want answers delivered surreptitiously. But the many secrets Marigold learns about her peers pale in comparison to her shock when she and her brother are hired to investigate her best friend's father as a potential traitor.

Lady Marigold is determined to discover the truth for her friend's sake, and she's more determined still to keep her heart from getting involved with this enigmatic new client . . . who can't possibly be as noble as he seems.

"White's well-woven plot is engaging from start to finish with delightful threads of mystery, romance, and inspiration."--CARRIE TURANSKY, award-winning author
