  From author Lena Gregory comes a hunt for more than just treasure . . . 
   
   
   
  Danika Delany is loving running her uncle's old fashioned malt shop on eastern Long Island and putting her own modern spin on the treats they serve. Life is finally looking up for her! That is, until local billionaire Maxwell Crumbholtz dies and leaves his fortune in the form of a treasure hunt. Chaos descends on Watchogue, and Dani and the rest of the gang from the Coffee & Cream Café join the melee when they enter the contest, try to decipher the clues, and go in search of the treasure. But Dani digs up more than she expected when she discovers a dead body buried instead of a treasure! To make matters worse, a witness claims to have seen Dani at the scene of the murder. Now, instead of a four-billion-dollar payday, Dani is on the hunt for a killer.

  For the sake of his master's memory, Sand will kill to recover a magnificent sword 
   
   
   
  Though useless in battle, the emperor's katana is a beautiful weapon. Cast from solid gold, this 1,200-year-old blade was thought to be lost until Master Konuma, teacher of samurais, presents it as a gift to the people of Japan. Soon after, he is savagely murdered, leaving his American student, Robert Sand, to avenge his death. The sensei is gone, but the sword remains as a symbol of his generosity—until the day the katana vanishes. 
   
   
   
  A madman snatches the treasure from the Metropolitan Museum, wanting the katana at his side as he makes a bid for world domination. Now it's Sand's turn to steal it back, and destroy the monster who dishonored his sensei's memory. The katana is too valuable to use in a fight, but for its sake much blood will flow.

  Tyler Stone is an enigma. He is polite, charming, intelligent, and possibly the most dangerous man you never want to meet. Disgusted by what he perceives as a society too stupid to realize it is being prayed on by divisive agendas that enrich a tiny minority, Tyler embarks on a killing spree. But this is no mindless act of violence; quite the contrary, it is a well-thought-out and executed plan that is akin to one man waging war against an entire nation. With casualties mounting, society coming apart at the seams, and law enforcement closing in, Tyler is determined to execute his plan and, more importantly, get away with it.
