  The untold love story of a Roman couple destined to shape an empire—before history wrote their names. 
  In the heart of ancient Rome, where marble statues guard their secrets and the Senate chambers echo with whispered plots, intrigue weaves through every corner. Kyra, a young medica, arrives in Rome for an arranged marriage to a man aligned with her father's enemy. Her journey leads her to the heart of a web of mystery and espionage, where shadows cling to every cobblestone, casting a Gothic pall over her steps. Amidst this maze of secrets, forbidden attractions, and dangerous ambitions, the Tower of Malatha beckons—a refuge or a trap. 
  As the sun sets over the Eternal City, the Tower of Malatha stands sentinel. Its stones harbour more than mere echoes; they cradle the fate of souls entwined by ambition, love, and treachery. Will they ascend to greatness or plunge into the abyss? 
  Note: This is Book 1 of a documentary historical quadrilogy with mystery, espionage, romance, and gothic elements, based on the author's extensive research, travel to ancient sites, and consultation of over two hundred ancient and contemporary scholarly sources. The author is a qualifying physician and holds a master's degree in classical archaeology, achieving full grades for their thesis. 
  Step into the world of Ancient Rome—a story of power, intrigue, and legacy. Please note: This audiobook is temporarily autonarrated due to time and budget constraints. As a medical student, I hope to personally narrate my books in the future. Thank you for supporting independent authors.

  In the glittering underbelly of Las Vegas, secrets are the highest stakes. 
  Albert has been playing a dangerous game, navigating the perilous corridors of organized crime under the watchful eye of his boss and uncle, Barry. An errant ring, rumored to unlock every clandestine operation, has gone missing—and Jack had it. As the tension tightens around the city’s illegal empires, Albert is thrust from behind the scenes into the chaos of fieldwork. 
  Tony, a towering enforcer, stands at his side, but it’s Albert’s intellect that must outmaneuver rival syndicates and government task forces. In the labyrinth where shadows conquer light, each move could mean triumph or a fatal endgame. When a trail leads to a dim Romanian's den, Simion—an untrustworthy but valuable informant—holds the nectar the hunters need: a lead on Jack. 
  But allegiances twist like the smoke-filled air as new players blend into the fray, each wielding their own brand of deceit. Will Albert uncover the ring's hidden truths before time runs out, or will this relentless pursuit be his last?

  When Det. Adam Russell of the Honolulu PD encounters the body of a woman in her sixties—the second in recent days to inexplicably die of what seem like natural causes—he reaches out to Karen Vail, the renowned FBI profiler, who hops on the next plane. 
   
   
   
  But even for someone as fluent in the language of murder as Vail, this case is hard to read. How were these women asphyxiated with no signs of trauma? How can she gather clues or collect evidence when the killer seems to strike during the briefest casual encounters? Is this the behavior of a male or a female perpetrator? And perhaps most terrifying of all, if the deaths appear so natural at first glance, how many victims have already been overlooked? 
   
   
   
  Now, as something cold and dark lurks under the sunny warmth of this island paradise, Vail must stop a serial killer as elusive as the breeze . . .

  Murder Most Foul is a dark, witty and fast-paced novel, from one of Britain’s best-loved screenwriters. 
  It’s 1593, Elizabeth I is Queen and everyone is terrified of the worst outbreak of plague in a generation. Shakespeare has only written six plays and is lagging behind his friend Christopher Marlowe, London’s leading playwright. 
   
  When Marlowe is stabbed to death in mysterious circumstances, rumours abound – but the one that won’t go away is that Shakespeare did it to remove his greatest rival. Will is determined to clear his name, and teams up with his old flame, Marlowe’s sister Ann, who has plenty of secrets of her own. 
   
  In their search to solve the crime, Will and Ann uncover a dark world of treachery, murder, and corruption – which in turn provides Shakespeare with scenes and characters which will appear in his greatest plays.
