  Business is booming for Sugar Creek's go-to caterer, and Abby is thrilled to land a high-profile corporate retreat at her aunt's charming B&B. But when the company's powerful CEO turns up dead, the retreat takes an ugly turn—and Abby finds herself caught in the middle of a simmering scandal. 
   
   
   
  As secrets bubble to the surface and tensions boil over, it's clear that nearly every guest had a reason to want him gone. With the investigation circling closer to home and her hard-earned reputation at stake, Abby has no choice but to start sleuthing. 
   
   
   
  At least she has Cassie's unshakable loyalty, a dog with a habit of nosing into trouble, and a sheriff boyfriend who's running out of ways to tell her to stay out of his case. Ryan knows Abby won't back down, but that doesn't mean he has to like it—especially when the trail of clues leads her straight into danger. 
   
   
   
  But with a murderer still at large, Abby doesn't have time to argue. She'll have to stir the pot and uncover the truth before someone else gets burned.

  She came home to celebrate. She never made it to the front door. 
  Zoey Monroe planned to surprise her mother, PI Martina Monroe, with one final Friday movie night before her wedding—a cherished tradition since childhood. But after landing in the Bay Area, Zoey vanishes without a trace. Her phone goes dark. And Zoey is gone. 
  Desperate for answers, her panicked fiancé turns to Zoey’s stepsister, Selena. When the search yields nothing, Martina springs into action, rallying her team, the local police, and her former cold case partner, now-retired Detective August Hirsch. 
  It quickly becomes clear—this was no random abduction. It was sophisticated. Calculated. Personal. 
  As Martina and Hirsch dig into old case files, hunting for anyone with a score to settle, a shocking twist throws the investigation off course: the kidnappers finally make contact—but not with Martina or the police. The message is delivered to Zoey’s future mother-in-law. 
  What secrets are the Ashfords hiding? And could they be the key to bringing Zoey home—or sealing her fate? 
  With the wedding day fast approaching and time running out, Martina races to untangle a deadly web of past sins and buried truths. But the deeper she digs, the more one thing becomes clear: This wasn’t about Zoey. This was revenge. 
  A gripping psychological crime thriller perfect for fans of Lisa Gardner, Karin Slaughter, and Mary Stone.

  🪡 Cross-stitch shop owner and sampler expert Xandra Stitch is preparing for the National Needlework Exhibition when the head judge—a notoriously harsh critic—is found dead in her shop, a rare antique needle protruding from a priceless historical sampler. The police suspect a crime of passion, but Xandra notices the cross-stitches in the sampler have been altered to form a coded message and the victim's critique notes contain hidden patterns. With her shop's reputation hanging by a thread and the needlework world watching, Xandra must cross-stitch her way through the investigation. Assisted by her stitching circle and the handsome museum curator authenticating the sampler, Xandra uncovers a scheme involving forged historical samplers, stolen embroidery patterns, and a black market for antique needlework. From suspicious floss colors that don't match the period to stitch tension that reveals multiple crafters, every X tells a story. But when Xandra discovers the victim was systematically discrediting authentic samplers to devalue them for a collector's scheme, she realizes the killer is protecting a textile legacy more intricate than any embroidery. With the exhibition opening soon and the real culprit still stitching deception, Xandra must unravel this tangled thread before her own design gets permanently frogged.

  Die Iblis! - An eye for an eye

  Content description: 
  Confusion and global terror. Who is allegedly committing Islamist attacks? Who is hunting and frightening European Jews? Who is - in some cases - behind so-called neo-Nazis? Things are not always as they seem and are becoming increasingly confused. Who may be the beneficiaries of modern global wars - and who is really instigating them? How are the secret services involved? This novel attempts to find answers to all of these questions, and while they may - at first - seem bizarre and improbable, the reader increasingly gains the impression that what was previously incomprehensible, even if only vaguely at first, is finally being understood a little better and that the true extent of bought politics and coerced politicians can be surmised. This book is not intended to serve prejudices - whether they come from one direction or another - but to make the reader think and show that things are not always what they appear to be.
