  Prequel to the Elioud Legacy series 
  She was trained to follow orders. She chose her conscience instead. 
  Berlin, 2011—The War on Terror is ten years’ old and shows no signs of abating. While on a high-stakes operation to unearth a terrorist cell on the verge of a devastating attack, newly minted CIA officer Olivia Markham spots a young woman being harassed by a group of immigrants. Unable to stop herself, she intervenes. For better or worse, her actions affect the mission objective. The instincts that made Olivia a stellar CIA recruit threaten her ability to work in the field. 
  But Olivia’s instincts won’t be denied. 
  Even as she faces opposition within the CIA, Olivia meets two other operatives from other agencies whose instincts match her own: Captain Alžběta Czerná of Czech military intelligence and Anastasia Fiore of Italian foreign intelligence. Yet each action outside the wire risks her future at the CIA. As what’s right becomes lost in the fog, Olivia must balance her official and unsanctioned covert activities. Until the dangerous mission that forces her to write her own operational protocol. 
  Set two and half years before THE ELIOUD LEGACY series, THE HARLEQUIN PROTOCOL tells the story of Olivia Markham’s transition from trained field operative to unsanctioned guardian. 
  "If I loved Olivia before, I am insanely mad about her after this. She is a superb character." -- Ted Fichtl, Col. USA (retired)

  The time has come for Riley Cannon, one of the bestselling novelists in history, to end her beloved series, but little do her readers know the major twist she is planning to deliver . . . if she can stay alive long enough to write it. 
  Understanding that she will soon have to bid farewell to her indestructible heroine and friend, Adrienne Astra, Rachel Roberts—pen name Riley Cannon—fears a world where she no longer spends time with the character whom she credits with keeping her alive during the most challenging times of her life. Overwhelmed, she realizes that in order to find the peace that she has long desired and to finish the series, she will have to open a chapter of her own life that she has closed off for four decades—locating and confronting the woman who abandoned her when she was two: Tina Haines, her mother. 
  But, as the search for Tina begins, Rachel’s inner circle starts to crumble. For the first time in Topaz Kennedy’s mythical career, she feels the savagery of the publishing world and the changing landscape that is ready to swallow her up, accelerated by the fact that she’s about to lose her biggest client. And Obadiah Ben-David, a man who has not only saved Rachel’s life but has finally found happiness in a relationship with a bookseller, receives crushing news that could change his life forever. 
  As her friends’ lives continue to fall apart and her fabled character’s survival hangs in the balance on the page, Rachel Roberts finds herself in the fight of her life. 
  For life is like a Huron sunrise: Before the first sliver of orange breaks the horizon—symbolizing renewal, hope, and a new beginning—there is darkness . . . 
  and some of us never live to see another sunrise.

  "The Story of the Inexperienced Ghost" by H.G. Wells is a humorous and thought-provoking tale blending comedy with the supernatural. The story begins with an ordinary man recounting his encounter with a ghost who, despite being dead, retains a charmingly human lack of expertise in haunting. The ghost’s ineptitude leads to comical misunderstandings as he struggles to navigate both the afterlife and the living world. Through this whimsical narrative, Wells explores themes of mortality, identity, and the human condition. The tale cleverly juxtaposes lightheartedness with deeper reflections on life, death, and the unknown. A delightful blend of wit and existential inquiry, it showcases Wells’s ability to infuse the fantastical with profound meaning.
