  'Delightful... if you love Richard Osman's books, this will be right up your street' TRIP FICTION
  
  After a gruelling stint as the most powerful woman in the world, Angela can finally put her feet up. With her quantum-chemist husband Achim, her bodyguard Mike and their new pug Putin, she has retired to the idyllic north German village of Kleinfreudenstadt-on-Dumpfsee.
  
  But it isn't easy to settle into country life. Baking and hiking just aren't as exciting as global financial meltdowns or deranged American presidents. And Angela's fellow villagers all seem to want something, from her xenophobic AfD-voting namesake to the local aristocrat desperate to bury her family's Nazi past.
  
  So when the eccentric Baron von Baugenwitz is found poisoned in a castle dungeon locked from the inside, new life stirs in Angela. Finally, a problem to solve! Supported by her team of helpers – foremost among them the doughty Putin – she embarks on a perilous hunt for the killer. Will she succeed? Or will one of the six women suspects finish her off first?
  This is a warm, funny and sometimes touching read with a compelling mystery at its core – cosy crime Deutschland-style!

  No WiFi, no distractions. No way out … 
  Agatha's husband has bought her a first-class ticket on the scenic six-hour train from Toronto to Montreal as a gift—a one-day writing retreat so she can get some serious work done on her new book, a highly anticipated follow-up to Agatha's runaway bestseller debut novel. The first-class car is the perfect place to be productive, with only a handful of other passengers, plenty of snacks and drinks, and beautiful views flying by outside the window. 
  But Agatha has other plans for her day out … plans that are unexpectedly derailed when the train breaks down in the middle of the frigid Canadian woods and one of Agatha's fellow passengers dies quietly in his seat. Soon, a pleasant morning in transit turns into a fight for survival against an unknown and unseen enemy. Will Agatha—or any of the passengers—make it out alive? 
  From international bestselling author Eva Jurczyk, 6:40 to Montreal is a claustrophobic, deceivingly bloody thriller that twists and turns until the very last page.  
  "An intense, claustrophobic nod to the Christie classic Murder on the Orient Express."—Library Journal

His latest project is a collaboration with a famous young rock star named Ian Swann, recording and filming his sessions for a movie. An amphitheater for a live show is being built on the land, giving Dawson flashbacks to the violent Altamont concert. Not on his watch.

  "At seventy-five-years-old, Ethel Fiona Crestwater is used to being underestimated. She looks like someone's grandma, although she's never married or had children; petite and a bit frail, she's not a threat to anyone. Or is she...? Ethel runs a boarding house for government agents, and when someone murders one of her boarders, she springs into action—much to the surprise of her distant cousin Jesse, who has recently come to stay with her while he attends university. As he watches her photograph the crime scene, conceal evidence, and speed-dial the Secret Service Director, Jesse realizes that there's much more to Ethel than appearances suggest. But when Jesse is assaulted and the gym bag full of cash Ethel had hidden is stolen from the basement, the pair decides it's time to launch their own unofficial investigation. With no one to trust but each other, these double-first-cousins-twice-removed form an unlikely bond and learn that the only thing truly worth risking your life for is family."

  When Caleb Smith saved Francesca Hamilton from a nasty situation with her father, she was beyond grateful. Sure, it landed her in Caleb's bed wearing his engagement ring, but neither of them took that seriously. It was a means to an end, and he was so sexy and exciting, she was enjoying the ride. It wasn't Caleb's fault her feelings were changing, leaving her wishing things between them were real rather than pretend. 
   
   
   
  Caleb took the FBI's assignment because he wanted to end the tyranny of a man who'd hurt the people he loved. Odds of success were slim and the danger high, but he knew the risks. Francesca didn't and was completely in the dark about her family's "business." And the more time he spends with her, the harder he falls for the gorgeous blonde. But to finally get retribution, he'll have to destroy her world . . .

  Book 10: Psychic VisionsWhen she was a child, Tavi's family was taken from her by a serial killer that was never caught. As an adult, she puts on the appearance of normalcy while burying herself in law enforcement as a detective. All her private energy is spent trying to find answers to what happened to her family, and preparing herself for the day she intends to exact revenge from the culprit. Jericho is just as much of a predator as Tavi is. He's caught the scent of old prey – a serial killer, one he's been a step behind all along. Discovering who the next victim is surprises him. Tavi is clearly a detective who gets her man – every time. The tug-of-war is on. She wants nothing to do with him; all he can think about is her. She doesn't want or need his protection; he can't leave her alone to save his life. Sparks fly between them the first time they meet, the last, and all the times in-between. Two hunters converge, set to follow their prey into the abyss if need be – right where he can take out two enemies for the price of one. He's cleaning up. Turning a new leaf. And wants no one left alive who can stop him.
