  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. 1810. Nottingham, England. 
   
  George Smith is the town's executioner - a pious man who has spent years telling himself the work is necessary. Justice must be served. The law must be upheld. Some ropes were never meant to be questioned. 
   
  Until another child is placed in his hands. 
   
  Driven by a conscience he can no longer silence, George begins pulling at threads that were never meant to be found - and uncovers a conspiracy buried in the shadows of Nottingham's most powerful institution: a private members' club whose lions have been sending the innocent to his rope for years. 
   
  At its centre stands Benjamin Connolly - charming, brilliant, and by every account either a genius or the devil himself. Even the lions seem afraid of him. 
   
  Protecting his family means playing their game. Ending it means becoming something George never intended to be - and trusting a man no one should. 
   
  Set against Luddite riots, Georgian corruption, and the flickering lamps of 1810 Nottingham, The Hangman's Turn is a story of justice, loyalty, and a man who knows exactly where the bodies are buried - because he put them there. 
   
  Drawing on the real history of Georgian Nottingham - its gaol and its gallows, its caves, and crowded yards, its riots and its forgotten dead - The Hangman's Turn is both a dark crime saga and a love letter to a rebel city. It is a story about family: the one we are born into, and the one we build from broken people. About class, and the machinery that keeps the poor exactly where the powerful need them. About faith tested past its breaking point, mercy disguised as menace, and the terrible arithmetic of saving some when you cannot save all. 
   
  Book One of The Lions Chamber series. For readers of dark historical fiction, morally complex antiheroes, and crime sagas where the humour is as dark as the history. 
   
  A good hangman never lets an innocent die.

Josie Wixx, disabled vampire and pet boutique owner, prefers to spend her days selling fancy and weird pet accessories and her nights eating chocolate while curled up with her Scottish Terrier…until her best customer is murdered in her friend’s bakery. 
  Stunned to hear that the kindhearted baker is now the prime suspect in the murder, Josie vows to clear her name. There’s just one problem—no one even knows how the exotic poison got into the victim’s system, not even the handsome medical examiner that Josie is just friends with. And as Josie starts to unravel the web of lies and secrets woven around the victim, it becomes clear a killer more devious than Dracula himself is on the loose. Josie fears her pained joints might give up before she can stop them. 
  With more suspects on the list than Josie has working joints, can Arteria Falls’ only P.I. catch the killer before they claim another victim?

  In “Blaze Orange,” an original short story by bestselling author Paul Doiron, Maine game warden Charley Stevens suspects that a tragic hunting accident is really cold-blooded murder—if only he can prove it.When a local man is shot dead during deer season in 1990s Maine, all signs point to a heartbreaking mistake, as the victim was dressed head-to-toe in brown, and the shooter is a respected family man known for his gentleness. But as Charley and rookie warden Kathy Frost sift through the quiet tensions of a small community, two details refuse to add up. The victim knew better than to wear neutral colors during deer season. Why wasn’t he dressed in blaze orange? And something that should be at the scene simply isn’t. To solve the case, Charley must dig into old grudges and buried motives—and Kathy turns to the most unlikely investigator of all.A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books
