  Inspired by the remarkable life of Dorothy Peto, the Metropolitan Police’s first female superintendent. 
   
  Even in war, your enemies can linger too close to home … 
   
  While war and revolution continue to ravage Europe, Dorothy Peto embraces her new role at Scotland Yard as she and several detectives investigate a series of jewel thefts. Then Dorothy is tasked with assisting the inscrutable Inspector Derwent and the charming Colonel Cartier to find a missing French aristocrat.  
   
  Their enquiries take them to a country house in Yorkshire, that’s been converted to a hospital for wounded soldiers and was the last place the Frenchman visited.  
   
  However, the more questions they ask, the more questions they have. 
   
  When the body of a man suspected of being the marquis is discovered, the investigative team returns to London, but the dead man is a stranger. Dorothy speculates that the death, the jewel thefts and the missing Frenchman may be connected. She finds herself tangled in a web of conscientious objectors, Irish republicans and communist agitators, and not everyone is who they appear to be.

  Deep in the heart of winter, all is quiet in Charm Cove. Or so Moira Wicked likes to think. The charming town in Maine is blanketed with snow, and magic is murmuring under the surface, but nothing is amiss. 
   
   
   
  Until it's time for maple sugaring season. One of the earliest signs of spring is when the maple trees are ready to tap for sap, which becomes maple sugar, and syrup, and more. Once the first few trees are tapped, Charm Cove residents start reporting missing buckets of maple sap. At first, it's only a few and then it's almost all of them. 
   
   
   
  It's a maple caper, and Charm Cove residents are riled up. 
   
   
   
  In the midst of the missing maple sap dustup, Moira finds herself caught in the middle because, of course, everyone she knows is missing maple sap. Maple sugaring is big business, and money is on the line. Who knew money and maple syrup would make people so crazy? 
   
   
   
  Meanwhile, Charm Cove is still a beacon to the wider world with its magic being bottled up and sold in its charming stores and online. 
   
   
   
  Take a visit to Charm Cove, where Wicked meets Good and where you just might find there's almost always more than meets the eye.
