  The perfect spy needs the perfect cover story. Love wasn't part of the plan. 
   
  Lady Alexis knows only the pampered life of a debutant. That soon changes when she is forced to run away. Accidentally boarding the wrong ship, she is stranded in the French smuggling port of Gravelines. She naively stows away in the wagons of a merchant bound for Paris. But England is at war with France, Napoleon rages on the continent, and Alexis finds herself facing even deadlier peril. 
   
  Aran Forsythe is an English spy, playing the decadent rake in Paris. When he finds Alexis in his cargo, he reluctantly becomes her protector. But the notorious spymaster Joseph Fouche has him under surveillance, and his pretense in Paris has begun to crumble. 
   
  To avoid Fouche's clutches, Alexis must play the part of Aran's mistress. The lines between reality and the role of lovers begin to blur, and their passion ignites. When the maniacal General de Sole decides he must have Alexis, and nothing, even murder, will stand in his way, the game becomes doubly dangerous. 
   
  Alexis's coming of age is a journey that takes her from innocent girl to heroic woman, in a battle to save herself and the man she loves . . . The Spy.

  Murder's frightfully unlucky! 
  Mrs. Ginger Reed, known also as Lady Gold, settles into homelife with her husband Chief Inspector Basil Reed, son Scout and newborn daughter Rosa, but when an opportunity to join a dinner party at the renowned Savoy Hotel is offered, she's eager to engage in a carefree night with friends. Some of the guests are troubled when their party's number lands at unlucky thirteen, as death is sure to come to the first person who leaves the table. 
  Thankfully, the Savoy has an answer to this superstitious dilemma. A small statue of a black cat fondly known as Kaspar is given the empty seat, rounding the number to fourteen. 
  Unfortunately, in this instance Kaspar didn't fulfill his duties and a murder is committed. The case is tricky and complicated by a recent escape of a prisoner who has a bone to pick with Basil. Are the two seemingly unrelated incidents connected? 
  Ginger and Basil work together to solve one while avoiding the other, and what can they do about the black cat who crossed their path?

  An ailing ex-soldier and recovering alcoholic, Stephen has just begun to build a fragile bond with Maggie, the adult daughter he barely knows. For two years, he has worked hard to earn her trust, but the tragedy of what occurred back in the summer of 1982 has the power to destroy their new relationship.
