Her client's guilt, however, is only the beginning of Judy's problems. The victim's family wants revenge and is determined to finish off Pigeon Tony and Judy before the case goes to trial. Then there's Pigeon Tony's hunky grandson, who makes Judy think about everything but the law. 
  In a case steeped in blood and memory, it will take brains and a lot of luck to save Pigeon Tony. But if anyone will see justice done, it's this gutsy girl who will risk everything to win—including her life.

  Survivors become sleuths to find a missing member of their book club in new-age Sedona, New Mexico . . . 
   
   
   
  Two things got Rarity Jones through her breast cancer treatments: friends and books. Now cancer-free, Rarity is devoting her life to helping others find their way through the maze to healing. She's opened a bookstore focusing on the power of healing—Eastern medicine, Western medicine, the healing power of food, the power of meditation, and the importance of developing a support community. To that end, she's also started the Tuesday Night Survivors book club. With its openness to new-age communities, Sedona, Arizona, is the perfect fit for Rarity's bookstore and the tightly knit group. 
   
   
    
  But their therapeutic unity is disrupted when one of their members suddenly goes missing. Martha has always kept to herself, never opening up much of her personal life to the group. Now she's nowhere to be found. With her car abandoned on a trail and her dog left with a friend, Rarity is sure something terrible has happened—but will she be able to uncover Martha's secrets before it's too late?

  A romance book festival comes to Winterspell, but not everyone is feeling the love. 
   
   
   
  Small-town journalism isn't exactly a thrill ride. Between PTA meetings and bake sale bulletins, I was drowning in monotony. But when I begged my editor for a juicier assignment, I should've been careful what I wished for. 
   
   
   
  Enter the Summer Lovin' Book Festival. BOGO deals on paperbacks with a side of beefcake, as five hunky models vie to become the next Captain Riker Bones, the shirtless swashbuckler adorning Grandma Rose's favorite bodice-rippers. 
   
   
   
  Sure, a little eye candy never hurt anyone, but ten minutes of watching grown women cry over washboard abs has me wishing I'd volunteered to write up the waste management ordinances instead. 
   
   
   
  But when one of our would-be pirates turns up dead in his hotel room, my puff piece transforms into a full-blown murder mystery. And the plot thickens faster than my family's famous buttercream when a poison-laced cupcake from Sugar Shack is found at the scene. 
   
   
   
  Now I'm racing against time to catch a killer, clear my family's name, and keep Grandma Rose from sailing into the sunset with one of the wannabe pirates. Someone pass the rum.

  There were a lot of things you could call Stacey Evans. And many of them would be true. And unprintable. But did she deserve to be murdered? 
   
  DI Winter Meadows has no doubt of the answer when he takes on the case. The crime was violent. The victim helpless. But the motives are many, and the only clue is a strange word left on Stacey’s body. 
   
  DI Meadows struggles to pierce the secrecy surrounding the teenager’s busy love life. Was the killer one of her pursuers acting out of jealousy? Maybe someone’s wife seeking revenge? 
   
  But as each suspect is excluded from the enquiry, and other markings turn up, Meadows is convinced that something more sinister is afoot. 
   
  When another body is found, a veil of silence descends like a fog upon Gaer Fawr. What more will it take for the village to give up its secrets? 
   
  A KNOT OF SPARROWS is the fourth standalone title in a series of murder mysteries by best-selling author Cheryl Rees-Price. It will appeal to fans of David Pearson, L J Ross, John Dean, Joy Ellis, and Pippa McCathie.
