  With Rebel Falls, Tim Wendel takes us to late summer of 1864. The Civil War rages on. Sherman is marching on Atlanta, while the armies of Grant and Lee battle across Virginia. In the North, war-weariness has made Lincoln's bid for reelection seem doubtful. As the fate of the nation  hangs in the balance, Confederate agents gather in Niagara Falls to plan one last maneuver to turn the tide of the conflict. 
   
   
   
  Rory Chase, a capable yet haunted young woman eager to contribute to the Union cause, accepts a mission from the Secretary of State to travel to Niagara Falls and prevent two rebel spies, John Yates Beall and Bennet Burley, from seizing the U.S.S. Michigan on Lake Erie and bombarding Buffalo, Cleveland, and other northern cities. To succeed, Rory must gain the rebel spies' trust and, with the help of the Underground Railroad network, foil their desperate gambit. But can she maintain the pretense of being a Confederate sympathizer long enough to unravel Beall and Burley's ingenious plot? 
   
   
   
  With actual events underpinning the tumultuous story in Rebel Falls, a forgotten chapter in the history of the Civil War is revealed. Far from frontlines, Wendel's exciting, character-driven narrative about a consequential struggle in the shadow of Niagara Falls' dramatic beauty is gripping from start to finish.

  Matt Walker had just witnessed the murder of Graham Meadows, his psychopathic brother-in-law; or so he thought. 
   
  After all he had been through, what, or who, could he believe anyway? 
   
  Eighteen months previous, after meeting the love of his life, Matt had envisaged finally settling down. However, soon after he married Amelia, his life began to spiral out of control; ever since the day she introduced him to The Family. 
   
  Yet somehow he managed to escape, free to start over. 
   
  But as Matt attempted to get his life back on track, Amelia’s news hit him like a sledgehammer. And to compound the misery, his best friend Lisa asked him to move out, leaving Matt to fend for himself once more. 
   
  Undeterred, he found himself in a new apartment, with a gorgeous new neighbour for company. A fresh start was so close, he could almost touch it… 
   
  But the family weren’t finished. They’ll never be finished.

  Lord Charles Sheridan and his American wife, Kate, are on an archaeologist dig, excavating sections of Hadrian's Wall, when they are summoned to Glamis Castle by King Edward. Nestled in the rugged Grampian Mountains, Glamis is the most historic castle in all of Scotland, a place teeming with dark secrets and haunting shadows. While Kate winds her way through the elaborate manor, gaining inspiration for her next Gothic novel, Lord Charles discovers the reason behind their journey. It seems Prince Eddy, heir to the throne until his purported death in 1892, has actually been alive all these years. Deemed unfit to rule, he has been living secretly at Glamis under an assumed name. But now the prince has gone missing—on the very morning the body of one of his servants was found, her throat slashed in a manner eerily reminiscent of the Ripper's. Now, Charles and his clever Kate must find Eddy and clear his name—while keeping his true identity a secret...
