  🧵 Notions shop owner and sewing supply expert Zippy Martin is preparing for the annual Craft Expo when the expo's main organizer—a ruthless sewing machine magnate—is found dead in her store, strangled with a measuring tape from her own notions wall. The police suspect a robbery gone wrong, but Zippy notices the tape measure has been deliberately altered and the victim's expo notes contain coded messages about supply chain manipulation. With her notions shop temporarily closed and the crafting community in stitches, Zippy must pin down the truth before her business unravels completely. Assisted by her sewing circle and the handsome industrial designer analyzing the compromised tools, Zippy uncovers a scheme involving counterfeit sewing notions, stolen fastener patents, and a plot to monopolize the craft supply market. From suspicious thread spools with inconsistent yardage to zipper teeth that don't match manufacturer specifications, every notion tells a story. But when Zippy discovers the victim was systematically driving small notions shops out of business to create a crafting monopoly, she realizes the killer is protecting local businesses from a corporate takeover. With the craft expo days away and the real culprit still snapping up secrets, Zippy must measure up as a sleuth before her own shop gets permanently buttoned up.

  When a blood-stained effigy of body parts is found in a central London park, D.I Daniel Graves must set about trying to discover what it could mean and find the person responsible. Symbols at the crime scene suggest the occult. Who would leave a murder victim in such a way, and why? As Graves and partner D.I. Charlie Palmer begin to investigate the ritual and the act of human sacrifice, they enlist the help of Charlotte Gooding, a talented professor specializing in the subject. They hope to narrow down a motive—could the killer believe in the supernatural? Witchcraft, even? Then the next crime scene is found. More blood, more symbols, and out in the open. It seems the killer wants the world to pay attention, but why? How are they choosing their victims? The pressure is on for Graves to put an end to the murders before more remains show up in brutal tableaus. One thing is for sure: this killer is out for blood, and they're not afraid to make it a very public display. There's just one problem. Grave's past still isn't behind him. Someone is eager to make sure he doesn't forget, that he cannot move on, and they're not playing games anymore. There may be an occult killer out there, but now there's another out for blood—Daniel Grave's blood.

  For years, Lady Cassandra Sinclair has harbored a scandalous secret and a painful loss. Unwilling to trust a man again, Cassie throws herself into a confidential project—a private home for pregnant, unwed women. But after she is seen there by the arrogant lord she once fought feelings for, the walls around Cassie's secret life begin to crumble. 
   
   
   
  Physician and fourth son of a marquess, Lord Grant Thornton is content with his reputation as a debauched widower. No respectable lady wants to marry a rogue, and Grant has no intention of marrying again. But his father's impatience for a male grandchild to carry on the family title spirals into a demand that Grant either remarry and aid in the effort—or be cut off. When Grant discovers Cassie operating the much-whispered-about Hope House in the poverty-stricken stews of Whitechapel, he's as impressed at her daring as he is furious. He also sees a wicked opportunity . . . 
   
   
   
  Cassie is appalled when Grant threatens to expose her secret unless she agrees to a staged courtship. With any hope, the child his brother is expecting will be a boy, and Grant will be off the hook. But until then, Cassie intends to make him regret his scheming. Acting the part of besotted couple in public, the two bitter adversaries clash in private, until an inconvenient attraction becomes unruly—and unstoppable.

  In a world where shadows loom larger than life, Slim Callaghan, private detective, finds himself ensnared in a web more tangled than any he's encountered before. "They Never Say When" thrusts Callaghan into the murky depths of deception and greed, courtesy of a client whose allure is as dangerous as the secret she harbours. 
  When Mrs. Paula Denys walks into his office, her request is anything but ordinary: she's paid a man to steal the priceless Denys Coronet from her own husband's safe, but the deal has soured into blackmail. Callaghan, with his unshakable resolve, takes on the case, stepping into a quagmire of treachery that tests even his seasoned instincts. 
  As Callaghan unravels the twisted skein, securing the coronet for his client, he's blindsided by the realisation that Mrs. Denys's intentions might be far from innocent. Suddenly, the hunter becomes the hunted in a game of cat and mouse that could cost Callaghan more than he's willing to pay. 
  Determined to uncover the truth, Callaghan plunges deeper, but in the shadows of a case that's dubious even by his standards, one question looms: will his insatiable curiosity be his downfall? 
  Set against the backdrop of 1944, They Never Say When is a classic tale of intrigue and suspense that harks back to the golden age of detective fiction. With every turn of the page, Slim Callaghan reminds us that in the gritty underbelly of crime and betrayal, they never say when the game is up.
