    London, 2045. The police are struggling to identify the dead man, but despite all the technology at their fingertips the man remains a mystery. That's until an outbreak of a deadly virus provides a crucial link to a touring Singapore e-sports team and a motley collection of small-time cybercriminals. 
    The SimCavalier, aka Cameron Silvera, wants to enjoy her romantic getaway with Ben, but clues to a Paris data theft are coming thick and fast. Her team has its hands full dealing with an escalating torrent of online attacks, and the fallout from a global data breach has hit their clients hard. Cameron starts to connect the dots as underground markets are flooded with stolen files. 
    Everything points to a single cybercrime syndicate controlling a wave of thefts, and the mysterious Yasmin the Admin who calls the shots. Ross thinks he’s found the people involved, but it may be too late. Cameron’s cover is blown and her home is attacked. The syndicate is hunting down the SimCavalier who has thwarted their plans once too often. Can she stop the cybercriminals and their hired thugs before they strike at the heart of her family?

She and her family are there to celebrate her beloved cousin's wedding. Not only is Piper creating the sugar-sand-dollar-festooned wedding cake, she's also the maid of honor.

Then a body is found on the beach where the wedding will take place. With the nuptials threatened, it falls to Piper to unmask a killer. Could it be the wedding planner with something to hide? A doctor and his wife who collect unusual Japanese figurines? The best man, an ex–drug dealer with lecherous eyes and roving hands? What about her cousin's future stepfather—or even the bridegroom himself? 
    As Piper gets close to figuring out who's been covering his guilty footprints in the sand, the cunning killer has already set his sights on Piper as his next victim!

    While Jazz Callender is recuperating from nearly losing her life during their first case for the mysterious Cross Society, Lucia Garza hires a new investigator to their firm: none other than Ben McCarthy. The former Kansas City cop has finally been exonerated of murder, and just in time. Jazz and Lucia have received a new red letter. 
     
     
      
    But instead of instructions for a high-priority case, this missive contains nothing but a warning: "One of you has made a mistake." And it's on letterhead from the Cross Society's major adversary in a psychic war. With Ben filling them in on his past secretive dealings with the organization, Jazz and Lucia start to believe they may be in bed with the enemy, one that they've underestimated at their own peril . . .
