  In the quaint, provincial town of Cranford, gentlemen are a scarce commodity—and the ladies prefer it that way. Ruled by a strict code of "elegant economy" and social propriety, the formidable spinsters and widows of this insular community navigate the intricacies of daily life with absolute independence. But when the modern world encroaches upon their idyllic sanctuary, these proud women must face a reality that threatens to upend their meticulously curated lives. 
  From the scandalous arrival of a loud, unapologetic military captain to the quiet heartbreak of rekindled, lost loves, Cranford weaves a brilliant tapestry of nineteenth-century society. Author Yvonne Schaefer captures the delicate balance between hilarious small-town eccentricity and deeply moving human tragedy. Beneath the ridiculous arguments over proper visiting hours and matching silks lies a profound portrait of female solidarity, unspoken sacrifices, and enduring grace. 
  Step into the candlelit parlors of a bygone era and discover a heartwarming, satirical masterpiece that proves the strongest armor a woman can wear is the unwavering support of her friends.

  Unfortunately, for Lance Corporal Alerio Sisera, the gears have political and egotistical parts that are just as sharp as gladius blades.

Wounded and disgraced, he must now save the same Legion that sentenced him to the harsh discipline.

  Tabitha Greene knows more about magic than most. She might not be able to cast a workable spell to save her life, but she has read every magical tome and text in existence. 
  Or so she thought. But then she hears of another book. A rare volume delineating an even rarer type of magic. A type of magic that just might be Tabitha’s real calling. 
  But when she tracks down the magical bookseller who owns the only known copy, she finds only a dead shop owner and no sign of the book.  
  Maybe a random robbery gone wrong, but Tabitha doubts it. But either way, if she wants that book, she has to find the murderer first. 
  With the help of her friends, she intends to do just that. But if the thief who stole the book killed the bookseller in order to hide the truth the text contained, Tabitha and all her friends face a dangerous threat.
