Sinossi

As Kay Tracey walks into the flower shop, a smiling young stranger hails her with, "Hello there. Grand party last night, wasn't it?" Kay has never seen him before! Neither does she know any of several other people who greet her that morning as an old friend. Mistaken identity? More than that! Double trouble!

 
This time Kay is in collision with a deep and intriguing mystery which threatens to land her in a tight spot. Even Betty and Wilma, the Worth twins, cannot uncover the slightest hint as to who looks so much like their best friend. When Kay finally picks up the faint thread of a clue, it leads to the sunken garden of an old mansion where a ghostly figure wheels and pirouettes in the dim light.

 
How Brantwood's teen-age detective extricates herself in this exciting case provides an unforgettable story of courage, adventure and mystery.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    "Every painting is a secret the canvas tries to keep. But what if the secret stares back at you?” 
    They told her that the school was prestigious. That it had trained visionaries. That the isolated location was part of its charm. 
    But when Isadora arrives at the remote European art academy, she senses something is wrong. Whispers crawl through the hallways. The instructors' smiles don’t reach their eyes. And the paintings—the paintings bleed. 
    Her brush reveals more than beauty. It exposes the rot beneath the surface, the spirits trapped in pigment, and the truth about her own reflection. 
    Inspired by the atmospheric dread of classic Italian horror, this is a creepy tale of art, madness, and witch's desire that feeds on creativity.

    Not every conspiracy is a theory. 
    When a man washes up onto Shadow Island, Sheriff Rebecca West has a moment of déjà vu. This isn’t the first body the ocean spat out on one of her beaches, but it’s the first one she’s found alive. 
    Barely. 
    The brutal gunshot wounds to the victim’s hand and the lower part of his face indicate he was shot offshore and dumped overboard, but there’s no boat or perpetrator. Just a few cryptic clues before the victim becomes unresponsive. 
    At first glance, the investigation points to pirates or a drug deal gone bad. But as Rebecca delves deeper, she realizes that this is far more than an attempt on a low-level criminal’s life. The case stretches out its tendrils, entangling the esteemed members of Shadow Island's Select Board, the sinister Yacht Club, and even her own sheriff's department. 
    And it could jeopardize everything. 
    Blackmail, power, and corruption collide as Rebecca resolves to clean the island up once and for all. Unless she dies trying. 
    From its puzzling beginning to the devastating conclusion, Shadow’s Conspiracy—the eighth book in the Shadow Island Series by Mary Stone and Lori Rhodes—will make you realize that whatever you sweep under the rug always comes back to haunt you.

    🫖 Tea shop owner and knitting enthusiast Chamomile "Callie" Brewster is hosting her monthly knitting circle when the town's most demanding customer is found dead in her tearoom—smothered by one of Callie's hand-knitted tea cozies. The police suspect a bizarre accident, but Callie notices the cozy features a knitting stitch pattern that was discontinued decades ago and the victim's tea cup contains traces of a rare, poisonous herb. With her tearoom temporarily closed and the local gossip boiling over, Callie must steep herself in an investigation that's anything but soothing. Assisted by her loyal knitting circle and the handsome British tea importer who supplies her shop, Callie uncovers a plot involving antique knitting patterns, rare tea smuggling, and a secret society of tea enthusiasts. From suspicious yarn blends that reveal unexpected origins to tea leaves that form cryptic messages, every cozy detail holds a clue. But when Callie discovers the victim was blackmailing members of the town's oldest families about their ancestors' involvement in a Prohibition-era tea smuggling ring, she realizes the killer is protecting a legacy warmer than any tea cozy. With the annual Tea Festival approaching and the real culprit still brewing trouble, Callie must unravel this conspiracy before her own shop gets permanently closed.

    Can Eden and Shadow uncover who's behind the murder before they become the next targets? Or will her desperate bid to reunite with her family cost her everything?
