Sinopse

Before Sherlock Holmes there was Dick Donovan. The name struck terror into the hearts of thieves, murderers, fences, swindlers and criminals of every class, and his exploits gave delight to millions worldwide from 1888 onwards. This second volume of the Dick Donovan adventures collects three novels and a short story, written by British journalist and author of mystery and horror fiction J. E. Preston Muddock. For a time his detective stories were as popular as those of Arthur Conan Doyle.

    Newly married Frances Hazelton, formerly the Countess of Harleigh, should be planning her honeymoon. Instead, she’s unmasking a murderer among the upper crust … 
     
    With her new husband George busy on a special mission for the British Museum, Frances has taken on an assignment of her own. The dowager Viscountess Wingate needs someone to sponsor her niece, Kate, for presentation to Queen Victoria. Frances—who understands  
    society’s quirks and constraints as only an outsider can—is the perfect candidate.  
     
    Kate is charming and intelligent, though perhaps not quite as sheltered as she might first appear. More worrying to Frances is the viscountess’s sudden deterioration. The usually formidable dowager has become shockingly frail, and Frances suspects someone may be drugging  
    her. The spotlight falls on Kate, who stands to inherit if her aunt passes, yet there are plenty of other likely candidates within the dowager’s household, both above and belowstairs.  
     
    Joining forces with her beloved George, Frances comes to believe that the late viscount, too, was targeted. And with the dowager seeming to be in greater danger every day, they must flush out the villain before she follows in her husband’s footsteps, directly to the grave …

    Dr. David Fazio is a maternity physician at Chicago-Western Medical Hospital. He is a handsome, divorced baby doctor who has more than his share of personal flaws. But Dr. Fazio has one good moral quality going for him: He is a pro-life obstetrician. In a state where late-term abortions are now legal, he is being strongly encouraged by the hospital to perform abortions to any patient requesting one. Dr. Fazio has one other problem...he has horrific sleep issues and has been known to be a sleepwalker. He wakes up one morning with severe burns on his hands, while a family planning clinic one block away has burned down to the ground with casualties. The authorities are now suspicious, as the "Abortion Arsonist" is burning down clinics in Chicagoland, and Dr. Fazio has no clue who it is. Every time Dr. Fazio sleeps, he has no concept of where he'll wake up or any memory of what damage he may have done the night before...

    🌊 The remote Seabreeze Point Lighthouse has a new keeper: marine biologist Dr. Cora Seabrook, who moved to the small coastal town for peace and quiet. But her peaceful life shatters when a body washes ashore during a fierce storm—the town's most disliked historian, who was trying to have the lighthouse decommissioned. The police call it a tragic accident, but Cora finds a clue in the lighthouse lens: a piece of a ship's log that shouldn't be there. When she realizes the lighthouse lamp was deliberately misaligned the night of the death, she knows it was murder. With help from her loyal seal, Finn, and the lighthouse's enigmatic volunteer, a man with his own connection to the sea, Cora delves into the town's history. She uncovers a riptide of motives, from stolen shipwreck treasures and forged historical documents to a century-old feud between lighthouse families. As another storm traps her in the lighthouse with a potential killer, Cora must navigate the treacherous waters of suspicion before the killer silences her for good.
