  A body caught in a boat wreck. A young constable acting unlike himself. A young woman determined that her Patrick has been replaced. An international conspiracy tied to Ireland. And a new task for Mr. Hardy: to find who killed the man on the sandbar, and how it connects to Constable Foster and his family. 
  When Mr. Hardy assists Constable Foster's mate "Ned" Kelly to pull a ship's boat off a sandbar, he is shocked to find a strangled body inside. But he is even more shocked when he learns that the last person seen with the dead man was Constable Foster. 
  Meanwhile, Aroha, the ferocious young Māori woman who has moved in with Foster has decided that the Patrick Foster who has returned from Napier is not the man she agreed to marry. Mr. Hardy and Aroha search for the real Patrick Foster, hoping to exonerate him, but a killer is on the loose, an Irish "Invincible." And Constable Foster may be more involved than they realize.

  The Remnants of Honor is a stirring tale of loyalty, sacrifice, and the quiet strength that endures after the final battle is over. In the aftermath of a brutal war, the survivors are left to piece together not only a shattered land, but their fractured sense of self. Among them, a weary knight haunted by loss embarks on a solitary quest to return a sacred relic—one that holds the memory of those who fell and the promise of redemption. As political tensions rise and buried truths resurface, he must confront what it truly means to honor the past while forging a new path forward. Poignant, reflective, and richly atmospheric, The Remnants of Honor is a powerful journey through the ruins of glory and the legacy of those who chose duty over despair. Ideal for listeners who appreciate character-driven storytelling, emotional depth, and the timeless echoes of courage.

  There is something about the number 3.    
   
  The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
   
  Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
   
  Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.

  Killing Gilda

  A beautiful nineteen-year-old named Gilda becomes the mistress of Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran. She dreams of becoming his wife. The narrator, in love with Gilda, follows clues about her death two years after the affair. 
  During an assassination attempt on the Shah, he gets shot on the steps of the Marble Palace. As he puts it, "I took a bullet for my king up the ass and got a jester's seat, the best seat, to watch the fall of the Persian Empire." 
  Killing Gilda is infused with intrigue, but at its heart, it's a love story that follows the best traditions of classics like The Beauty and the Beast. We enter the rarified atmosphere of the court, the young woman's life, and the reasons for her death. We follow the characters through the Paris of Madame Claude, the Shah's ski resort at St. Moritz, and Doctor Pitanguy's plastic surgery clinic in Baden Baden. 
  The story, with its scheming characters and rare glimpses into Shah's private life, eschews easy labels. The Shah's sexual adventurism didn't stop his liberal policies for women's rights.
