  There are three sides to every story 
  Yours. Theirs. 
  And the Truth. 
  Michael Brady is back. The Edge of Truth is the fifth book in the series. And there’s a ghost from Brady’s past… 
   
  The push that sent Diane Macdonald over the cliff edge was surprisingly gentle. 
  She was walking her dog on the cliff top. Runswick Bay, a few miles north of Whitby. 
  Thirty-six hours later her body is found at the bottom of the cliff. 
  Brady’s convinced it’s murder. 
  But there’s no evidence. 
  And only one witness. 
  Gerry Donoghue, a homeless ex-veteran. A man with a deep, dark secret. 
  And now he’s disappeared. 
  Leaving Brady with Diane’s husband, Graham Macdonald – the ghost from Brady’s past. 
   
  Twenty-five years later and Macdonald is an MP. 
  And a good friend of Brady’s boss, Kershaw. 
  So there’s pressure. Plenty of pressure. 
  And Michael Brady’s not dealing with it very well. 
  He starts to make increasingly rash decisions – putting his personal and his professional relationships at risk. 
   
  But you know Brady by now. 
  He won’t let it go. 
  He can’t let it go…

  "The Adventure of the Empty House", one of the 56 Sherlock Holmes short stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is one of 13 stories in the cycle collected as The Return of Sherlock Holmes.
  Public pressure forced Conan Doyle to bring the sleuth back to life, and explain his apparently miraculous survival of a deadly struggle with Professor Moriarty. This is the first Holmes story set after his supposed death at the Reichenbach Falls, as recounted in "The Final Problem". The Hound of the Baskervilles had seen the return of a pre-Reichenbach Falls Sherlock Holmes, which only served to whet readers' appetites.
  Doyle ranked "The Adventure of the Empty House" sixth in his list of his twelve favorite Holmes stories.

  Two months have passed since Commander Ellen Ryu did the impossible and rescued mercenary Kael Sidassian—along with his mysterious cargo. Now the crew of Audacity is stronger than ever, protecting the galaxy against the abuse of technology. 
  But after the team botches a simple humanitarian aid mission, Ryu and Kael find themselves on Capital, a neutral planet full of high fashion, decadent pleasures, and dark secrets. Foundation scientist Chayana Persad has new tech that could help defend against Ryu’s oldest enemy. But local telepaths have been vanishing, and Persad’s son is missing—and somehow at the center of these crimes. As the crew searches for answers, they’ll have to dodge Capital’s corrupt police, allies with hidden agendas, and a traitor aboard Audacity itself. Enemies will strike, guns will fail, and the team will face some tough choices. Can Kael, Ellen, and the crew pull closer together? Or will this decadent planet rip them forever apart? 
  For lovers of romantic space opera, Lois McMaster Bujold, and David Weber, CAPITAL GAMES is the second volume in the Audacity series. It's got action, adventure, and at least one pair of killer high heels.

  She thought she had the perfect life … until she met a stranger in paradise. 
  Laura Phillips always wanted to travel the world but was too afraid to go it alone. So when her new boyfriend, Dave, invites her on a romantic getaway to the remote island of Eleuthera in the Bahamas, she jumps at the chance. 
  As soon as they arrive at the Pink Sands resort, Laura and Dave are handed cocktails garnished with umbrellas and led to a luxurious suite. It’s a lovers’ paradise.

Intrigued, Laura befriends the woman, Diana, and as they spend time together, Laura finds herself telling Diana secrets she’s never shared with anyone. 
  But when Diana unexpectedly disappears, Laura suddenly realizes how little she knows about this mysterious woman. 
  The police suspect Diana may be in danger, and soon Laura herself becomes embroiled in the investigation. Her worries swiftly turn into obsession: Who is Diana? Where did she go? Is she dead? Murdered? As Laura races to find out what happened—and prove her own innocence—she quickly realizes that nothing in this sun-soaked paradise is what it seems, and it’s impossible to know who she can trust. What started out as a dream getaway is turning into a terrifying nightmare …
