  "What could go wrong when baker Rosie Hart heads to a snowy Colorado mountain lodge for a week of elaborate pre-wedding festivities at her friend’s wedding? The better question would be...what could go right? Rosie’s fears for the nervous bride are confirmed when one of the wedding guests turns up dead. All evidence points to the groom being the intended victim, but with the guests dressed in Christmas-themed attire and a dead Santa on their hands, Rosie’s not so sure. What if the killer did hit the right target all along? Stuck in a blizzard with the wedding party being picked off one by one, Rosie’s investigative instincts kick in—only this time she’s acting without the support of her friends back in Airlie Falls...until her four irrepressible card-shark mentors from Riverbend Retirement Village unexpectedly turn up to rescue her. The more the merrier...right?"

  Her job is to catch a serial killer, she never expected to be covering for one. 
  Detective Emily Sinclair has spent her life chasing justice, but when her childhood best friend Ava is brutalized by men who walk free, Emily is forced to confront a hard truth: the system isn’t broken, it’s working exactly as designed. Money buys verdicts, silence, and the right to destroy lives without consequence. 
  That changes when those untouchable men start turning up dead. 
  As bodies pile up, Emily finds herself erasing evidence, manipulating crime scenes, and walking a line between law and vengeance. She tells herself she’s protecting Ava. That justice, real justice, sometimes requires getting your hands dirty. 
  Then Rookie Detective Ryan Hunter is assigned to her team. 
  What starts as an obligation quickly becomes a complication Emily never saw coming. The more she tries to keep him at arm’s length, the harder she falls. 
  When Ryan gets too close to the truth, Emily begs Ava to stop. But Ava has her own agenda, and Emily begins to fear Ryan won’t just uncover her secret, he’ll become Ava’s next victim. 
  Now Emily must decide how far she will go to protect a friend, and what happens when the person you’re trying to save becomes the monster you can’t control? 
  In a world where trauma breeds violence, Emily is about to discover that sometimes the greatest threat isn’t the guilty, it’s the ones we’re desperate to protect. 
  TRIGGER WARNING - READ THIS FIRST

  Content includes: 
  Graphic violence and murder 
  Sexual assault and trafficking 
  Hostile views of men 
  Feminine rage and misandry

  As the nation's oldest serving detectives, we know more about London than almost anyone. After all, we've been walking its streets and impulsively arresting its citizens for decades. Who better to take you through its less savoury side? 
  We'll be chatting about odd buildings, odder characters, lost venues, forgotten disasters, confusing routes, dubious gossip, illicit pleasures and hidden pubs. We'll be making all sorts of odd connections and showing you why it's almost impossible to separate fact from fiction in London. 
  With the help of some of our more disreputable friends, each an argumentative and unreliable expert in his or her own dodgy field, we'll explain why some streets have genders, why only two Londoners got to meet Dracula, how a department store and a prison played tricks on your mind, when a theatre got stranded in the past, how a building vanished in plain sight, what excited Charlotte Brontë about the city and where the devils hide in London. 
  We hope to capture something of the city's restless spirit by wilfully wandering off course, and it goes without saying that we'll bluff and bamboozle you along the way but that's all part of the fun. History is what you remember. London is what you forget (and we've forgotten a lot). So please do join us on this magical mystery tour of our city. Who knows where we'll end up?
