  Eugenia, a baroness divorced from a German prince, and her bohemian brother, Felix, are coming back to America. Raised and cultured in Europe, they are returning destitute to New England to seek out their rich and innocent cousins. 
  Eugenia wins the attentions of Robert Acton, the most appropriate suitor in the area, while also seducing her younger cousin, Clifford. But her foreign gentility and audacity confuse the puritanical customs of the New World. On the other hand, Felix’s luxurious romantic ways find acceptance with the American women. But misunderstandings of a different kind complicate his plans. 
  In a bungle of culture clash and love triangles, the Europeans hang their fortunes upon their ability to adapt. Where their scheming leads them is the last place they expect.

One side of his wings there is white. On the other side, there is black. Throughout time, the Lumen Caligo acted as a peacekeeper for all the nations, leading them to times of peace, prosperity, and power… Then, the Lumen Caligo of the 1600s mysteriously vanished at the brink of war between the nations. His last letter was something called “The Isolation Order". It requested that the nations return to their lands of origin. Fearing the destruction that could unfold and respecting the title of The Lumen Caligo, the nations returned to their lands and vowed to remain isolated from the rest of the world until the Lumen Caligo returned... On a sunset beach in California, a man sits in solitude... Not knowing the role he will play for the changing and shaping of the world…This is where our story begins.

  bakery she inherited from her great-aunt Octavia into a destination. There’s just  
  one thing she won’t post: the body in the kitchen … 
  Thanks to Maddy’s social media savvy, Baby Cakes Bakery is becoming a huge  
  success—so much so that she’s attracted the attention of her former nemesis, the  
  fiancé-stealing Brandy Denton. When Brandy blows into New Bison like an ill wind  
  and disrupts a vlog Maddy’s filming, their argument goes viral. After Brandy’s  
  body is found at Baby Cakes, Maddy instantly goes from viral sensation to murder  
  suspect. 
  As Maddy is still reeling from the murder, a stranger shows up in the bakery  
  claiming to have been a friend of Octavia. He believes Maddy is in danger. When a  
  second body washes up on the lake shore, it seems clear someone’s out to kill to  
  keep a secret—and it may have to do with her great-aunt. 
  Maddy rallies her aunt’s friends, the Baker Street Irregulars, Sheriff April Johnson  
  and her veterinarian boyfriend Michael—not to mention her English mastiff  
  Baby—to do some digging and root out whoever’s behind the killings …

  A BRAND NEW cosy Isle of Wight mystery perfect for fans of Frances Evesham, Faith Martin and LJ Ross. 
  Susan didn’t plan on being an amateur sleuth and, after two successful investigations, she’s looking forward to a quiet Christmas. 
  So, when local businesswoman Meera is in desperate need of help, Susan agrees rather reluctantly. 
  The task should be easy enough. The infamous press mogul Duncan Fern is coming back to the Isle of Wight, the scene of his family’s childhood holidays, to celebrate Christmas with his grown-up children and their partners, his new glamorous wife Kirsten who is forever dripping with diamonds, and the spiky editor of his paper the Morning Flame, Antoine. The newly-refurbished luxurious Bishopstone Manor is the perfect setting for a festive break and all Susan has to do is help Meera host. 
  But when a snowstorm descends over the island, and the following morning a body is found, Christmas at the Manor takes a darker turn. Can Susan get to the bottom of the mystery before the murderer strikes again… 
  'I thoroughly enjoyed this intriguing mystery set in a beautiful location with deliciously menacing undercurrents.' Frances Evesham 
  'A fascinating whodunnit to stimulate even the most demanding of amateur sleuths.' T.A. Williams
