Synopsis

Adultery and treachery shape this thrilling romance set against the backdrop of the War of the Roses—from the New York Times–bestselling author. 
 
A woman banished 
 
Griffith, battle-seasoned warrior and the king’s most trusted emissary, expected to find a shallow, vain, frivolous woman at Wenthaven Castle. After all, as lady-in-waiting to the queen, lovely Lady Marian had been in a position of privilege, yet she had been banished from the court amid rumors she had given birth to an illegitimate child. 
 
An outrageous offer 
 
When he arrived, Griffith found Lady Marian to be strong, intelligent and fiercely protective of the young baby in her custody . . . and very suspicious of him. If he were smart, the knight would just deliver the message with which he had been entrusted. Instead, he longs to linger to delve into the mystery that is Marian, to discover what she so desperately fears—and why he so improperly wants her.`

    Step into a sun-drenched world of barefoot escapades, stolen kisses, and deadly secrets hidden beneath the Mississippi moonlight. 
    In the quiet, seemingly innocent village of St. Petersburg, Missouri, young Tom Sawyer knows only two things: how to avoid work, and how to find trouble. Whether he's ingeniously tricking the neighborhood boys into whitewashing his Aunt Polly’s fence, playing pirate on a remote river island, or courting the lovely Becky Thatcher, Tom’s life is a masterclass in boyhood rebellion. But when Tom and the town outcast, Huckleberry Finn, sneak into the graveyard at midnight to cure warts with a dead cat, they accidentally witness a brutal murder. Suddenly, their innocent games of pirates and outlaws become terrifyingly real, plunging the boys into a harrowing game of cat-and-mouse with the ruthless killer Injun Joe. 
    Why you will love this: This definitive Classic Adventure captures the golden age of youth with unmatched wit and thrilling suspense. If you crave stories featuring mischievous rogues, coming of age journeys, small-town mysteries, and daring riverboat-era escapades, this audiobook is an absolute must-listen. Twain's masterful blend of brilliant satire, enduring friendship, and nail-biting danger guarantees that the legend of the mischievous boy will stay with you forever.

    Archaeologist Martin Day had an affair with Ophelia Blue twenty years ago, and suddenly she is on her way to Naxos because she needs his help. He is excited to see her again, but also wary as his life now revolves around Helen. Ophelia, however, behaves perfectly - until she disappears after their first evening together without revealing why she had come. The police refuse to regard Ophelia as a missing person, nor is the difficult new Chief of Police, Inspector Kyriakos Tsountas, the kind of man to accept that her disappearance is connected to a strange local legend. The legend speaks of a lost ancient artefact known as the Kallos of Naxos. Only one man ever tried to find the Kallos, and he's dead. If Day is to find Ophelia he will need all his ingenuity and imagination, and quite possibly his courage.
    
    This is the fourth in the Naxos Mysteries series, in which many things come to a head for Martin Day in his search for the missing Ophelia.
