Sinopse

The Paletti Notebook is an amazing collection of art and letters from the geniuses of the Renaissance: da Vinci, Michelangelo, Borgia, Savonarola, Machiavelli. It could be worth incalculable millions of Euros.
 
But what did Sandro Paletti really leave behind 500 years ago, and what else in that ancient collection, unearthed from an abbey in Florence in 2021, is so important that the governments of the United States, Great Britain, China and other major countries would go to such lengths to acquire it?
 
Now, the race is on to capture the portfolio. With the life of a young girl and the fate of nations hanging in the balance, can Darren Priest get to it before his adversaries?

Detective Sara Hirst has moved from London to Norfolk Police's Serious Crimes Unit. 
 
 
 
Carnival week in Cromer. It's been an easy-going summer for the Norfolk Police's Serious Crimes Unit—until this morning. 
 
 
 
The body of Daisy Shaw, the Carnival Queen, is discovered in a back alley, stretched out on the cobbles. Her long blonde hair lies matted and disheveled around her head, her fingers clutch a sparkly plastic tiara. 
 
 
 
Suspicion falls on the carnival crew, especially when it turns out that one of them is Daisy's boyfriend. 
 
 
 
The atmosphere in Cromer soon grows nasty. The town turns against the outsiders. The roads are closed. The town descends into chaos. And the murder detectives are right in the thick of it, trying to piece together what happened to Daisy. 
 
 
 
The close-knit carnival community is all too used to prejudice and none too keen on helping the police. 
 
 
 
Meanwhile, both Sara's mother and boyfriend have bombshells to drop. Can Sara solve the case before anyone else gets hurt?

A civilization reliant on AR. Unchipped refugees forced outside its walls. Can a lone underdog save humanity from itself? 
In the two years since the Great Affliction, the Happiness-Program has transformed a civilization on the brink of extinction into an organized, beautiful, and happy society. However, for the Unchipped--those whose chips can't connect to the system--living a comfortable life remains out of reach. 
Kaarina, one of the Unchipped, would give anything to live inside the walls of the city again. Haunted by her mother's suicide and alone except for Bill, another Unchipped thousands of miles away whose thoughts are inexplicably linked to hers, Kaarina fights for survival, defending her beloved animals from the other savage Unchipped. But when her horse's illness drives her into the city to find medicine, she becomes acquainted with a Chipped man who makes her question everything. 
Now a new fix to the system promises her the chance to finally be normal... just as she begins to learn life in the perfectly augmented reality may not be all that she imagined.
