    Sisterly Love is about the unique bonds of sisterhood and depicts eras and places as seen through the lives of two sisters as they come and go at will in each other's lives, following a need to relate their memories or explore their present. 
    This is not a story with its conventional beginning, middle and end, although all that does happen in it.  So there is a story-line, but it is not conventionally told. 
    The story of their lives begins in the early years of the twentieth century with the usual sibling rivalries and disputes exaggerated by the presence of an obnoxious aunt and we revisit them from time to time.starting in the nineteen thirties. Elsie typifies the solid, conservative, hard-working office girl. Lillian shifts with ease from one boyfriend to another, from one husband to another, from one boss to another, from one country to another, yet she always returns to take refuge by either Elsie's or Horace's (their young brother's) home fires. By dint of Lillian's wanderings, the novel moves from London to an English country village, to South Africa, to Australia, to Spain, back to London, all vividly evoked through reminiscence. 
    It is loneliness in their advancing years which forces them into each other's company, despite themselves. It is the sadness of having nothing else in life which inevitably flings them against one another painfully peeling away the layers of their past existences and forcing them to surrender themselves to the irritating state of undesired dependence. 
    It is the inescapable pathos of two lives reduced by the passing years to grumpy proximity in a small bed-sitter that breathes life into Sisterly Love. .. My aim was to write about how youth transforms into old age with a certain humour, sadness and sensitivity.     D.H. Madrid, 2019

Amid war, betrayal, and secrets powerful enough to fracture the heavens themselves, they are bound by a fate both glorious and terrifying.And when the final light falters and the sky prepares to be devoured by shadow, it is this invisible bond that will decide the future of every world—whether it will blaze with rebirth or be forever consumed by an eternal night.An expansive, atmospheric tale of magic, peril, and prophecy—crafted to ignite your imagination and pull you into a cosmic struggle between forces beyond mortal comprehension.

    Swipe right for love. Swipe left for death. 
    In the aftermath of another harrowing case, FBI agent turned private investigator Winter Black is battling personal demons: guilt, her grandmother’s failing health, a strained alliance with a key detective, and the eerie knowledge that someone has been spying on her family. Amid these trials, Winter’s newest case emerges as a rare glimpse of normalcy, offering a seemingly simple investigation far removed from the deadly threats that have marked her recent past. 
    Until her new client turns up dead, a knife through his heart. 
    Even though dead men don’t pay, Winter feels a deep-seated responsibility to solve the murder of her client. Especially when another victim is murdered in the same manner. The common denominators? Both men were on the Wandering Hearts dating app for people looking to cheat, and the killer’s calling card—a gold broken heart charm—was left at the scene of both crimes. 
    Someone’s out for vengeance. And it’s personal. 
    In a bold gamble to catch the killer, Winter and her husband set up fake dating profiles for Winter’s office staff, placing them in the crosshairs of a deadly game. But one wrong move could land Winter in trouble with the local police, Noah in hot water with the FBI...and at least one person she cares for exposed to the killer's blade. 
    The mystery and suspense continue with Winter’s Gamble, the shocking fourth book in the Winter Black Season Two series, a stark reminder that the search for romance can quickly turn into a journey through a minefield, where every click might be your last.
