Sinossi

Cherish the good memories. Weaponize the bad ones.
 
Together with her faithful canine companion, Foxy Valdez lives a Spartan life in her single-wide trailer. A legendary mercenary, she's under contract with Salvage Corps PMC, known as Ángel de la Muerte. Haunted by memories from her tragic past, she’s desperate to break free of the gun-for-hire life that she’s sold her soul to.
 
That opportunity presents itself when journalist and social media influencer, Brendan Thor, uncovers a conspiracy involving a cabal of powerful men hellbent on controlling people through memory manipulation. An opposing force wants Thor alive and will pay any price to protect him.
 
The head of Salvage presents Foxy with an offer she finds hard to refuse. On her own in a dark world chock-full of ruthless mercenaries, double-dealers and uneasy alliances, nothing is what it seems - except for one thing. To win her freedom, Foxy Valdez will have to outwit and outgun everyone in her path.

    Inspired by true events, blending white–knuckle suspense with wartime romance, a woman who would become known as the female Schindler risks everything to smuggle children out of the ghetto and away from the grasp of the Gestapo . . .  
    Warsaw, 1939. The Nazi invasion shatters the city, as Nazi banners rise, hunger gnaws, and walls create a ghetto. SS patrols prowl and trains stand ready for “resettlement” camps of Treblinka. 
    Granted access to the ghetto as a “public health specialist,” Irena Sendler steps through the gates with forged papers and begins with the smallest, most dangerous act: smuggling children out and away from certain death. 
    With help from a group of rebels, Jewish residents, and her lover, Irena builds a pipeline under the occupier’s nose, using any means necessary, including the city’s sewers. 
    At unimaginable personal risk, she keeps one last secret hidden. But if she is caught the truth threatens to remain hidden forever . . .  
    Inspired by the true story of Irena Sendler, the Polish social worker who helped rescue more than 2,500 Jewish children from the Warsaw Ghetto, The Angel of Warsaw is an unforgettable, heart–stopping tale of resistance, sacrifice, bravery, and love.

But as she gets closer and closer to the truth, will she become the Ripper's next target? Hyde and his exceptional investigation skills—and his wicked hand—may be all that saves her.A rich new voice in historical mysteries, John A. Hoda is an ex-police officer and private investigator, as well as a three-time winner of the publisher's award from the Legal Investigator.

    Description:
    My son said he had a surprise for me. He brought home a pregnant girl — the daughter of my ex-husband's lifelong obsession — and expected me to celebrate.
    
    I didn't celebrate. I threw them out.
    
    What followed was a war I hadn't wanted. Derek turned on me with a ferocity I hadn't thought him capable of. Money, manipulation, manufactured crises — and then something far worse. I had worked for thirty years to build everything we had, sacrifice by sacrifice, and my own child looked at it all and saw only what he stood to inherit.
    
    So I made a choice: stop being the mother who always gave in. Start being the woman who paid attention.
    
    They thought they had me figured out. They thought they knew exactly what a mother would and wouldn't do.
    
    They were wrong.
    
    *A gripping story of sacrifice, betrayal, and a woman who refuses to be erased.*
