  In the picturesque seaside town of St Ives, Detective Sergeant Sophie Keane is a pillar of the community.

  Aja gets caught in the Black Widow’s web. First, trapped on a remote island. Then compelled to abandon the allegiances she holds dear. 
  Aja knowingly sacrificed herself to save twenty girls from the Spider’s Web child trafficking network. She also gave herself up thinking it would free Marsha and two other SHIELD team colleagues. Unfortunately, she never should have trusted that the Black Widow would hold up her end of the bargain. 
  So now, she and Marsha find themselves in the same predicament. Confined to a remote island and forced to survive under the most primitive and extreme conditions. Until the Black Widow whisks them off the island, separates them, and compels Aja to cooperate in a most unexpected project. A project that will have Aja compromising more than just her allegiance to SHIELD. 
  Will Aja’s actions doom her crime-fighting career? And where is Marsha? Is she being tempted or tortured into traitorous actions too? And, most importantly, will either of them survive the Black Widow’s clutches? 
  Aja Minor: Shanghaied is the fifth book in the Aja Minor psychic crime thrillers series, including Aja Minor: Gifted or Cursed, Aja Minor: Fountain of Youth, Aja Minor: Predatorville, and Aja Minor: Spider’s Web. Fans of fierce female protagonists with unique powers who overcome adversity will find a home in this series. 
  A portion of the proceeds from this series is donated to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, established in 1984 to help find missing children, reduce child sexual exploitation, and prevent child victimization.

  When Delaney wins a special Hidden Door Festival invitation to artist Ryory Bennigan's studio, she isn't sure quite what to expect. What she finds is an elusive fellow obsessed with the Picts—complete with his own versions of their blue tattoos and vibrant red hair—recreating the stones they left behind. She also meets a visiting paleontologist, Dr. Adam Pace, from the University of Kansas attempting to sell an artifact that might just explain what the Picts' language really sounded like. 
   
   
   
  Or at least that's what he claimed the artifact was for. Before the deal can close and Ryory can get a closer look at it, Dr. Pace is found dead. 
   
   
   
  With the police dragging their feet in the investigation, Delaney takes it upon herself to dig into Dr. Pace's past. Her research goes murky as she quickly discovers Pace's shady background—selling fake dinosaur bones and running into some 3D-printing trouble back in Kansas. Could his past have come back to bite him in Edinburgh? And what does his questionable background mean for the mysterious Pictish artifact he was trying to sell to Ryory? Delaney will have to dust off her magnifying glass to uncover the truth behind this case . . . or risk becoming a pile of bones herself.
