    Wolfgang Pierce is an independent operator with dozens of mission-accomplished moments to his credit. He's happy to join the team, but this mission is altogether unlike the domestic operations he's accustomed to, and any mistake could be his last. 
     
     
     
    As the streets of Paris blur into a whirlwind of misdirection and danger, only one thing is certain. This mission is far more complicated than advertised, and failure may cost a lot more than the lives of Wolfgang's fellow operators. 
     
     
     
    It could cost the lives of thousands.

    A COMPELLING AND CLAUSTROPHOBIC THRILLER
    
    'Once I'd started reading I could not put it down' IAIN MAITLAND
    
    When burned-out investigative journalist Adam Budd's estranged mother dies, he inherits her estate. This includes Stone Heart House, a huge, ramshackle mansion on a remote Scottish island. He visits the island to sort out her tangled affairs, and at first it seems like a charming haven of tranquillity. But after he witnesses a strange accident, he begins to develop suspicions about the inhabitants.
    
    Why does everyone seem so eerily calm, even under stress? What is stopping Harriet, the lawyer helping him with his affairs, from leaving the island when she so clearly wants to? Is he making a big mistake by falling for her? And why have so many children gone missing?
    
    Stone Heart Deep is a compelling and claustrophobic thriller with a remarkable twist, as if Iain Banks had rewritten The Wicker Man.

    You need more Sherlock? You love the stories of The Canon but you want more ... more stories that are similar to the original sixty. You have come to the right place.
    The Adventure of the Winchester Heart-Breaker: 
    "To the man who loves intellectual stimulation," remarked Sherlock Holmes, "London in August is the lowliest month on the calendar. Those with the means to do so have departed for the Algarve and the Riviera. Those without are off to Blackpool and Brighton." "And what about those," I asked, "who are left behind? You and I are still here." "You at least have your sensational accounts of my efforts to keep scribbling. I, on the other hand, am losing faith in the enterprising criminal class. They appear to have faded into the great unobservant public and are somnambulating about the city, doing nothing more than stealing lead pencils from blind beggars."

    When the unexpected death of a coven member brings all the witches in Honeysuckle Springs together, Evie finally meets her witchy counterparts. Some she knew were magical, but others surprise her. But what really disturbs her is a murderer may lurk amongst them. 
     
     
     
    The coven isn't the only thing in turmoil. The wild kiss Evie shared with Caden didn't just unlock a few of her stolen memories. It paved the way to possibly remembering everything about that long ago fateful summer. The only problem is kissing him often enough to retrieve those memories could put their hearts in danger . . . if they aren't already. 
     
     
     
    Evie soon realizes witchcraft is the only thing that will fix her relationship with Caden and help her solve the murder. Unfortunately, Aunt Birdie's still dragging her feet, unwilling to teach her much, which leaves Evie no choice but to strike out on her own. If she starts with a few simple spells, surely, nothing could go wrong . . .
