Sinopsis

Inspector Littlejohn is once again summoned to the Isle of Man when a local vicar is accused of murder in this long-running British mystery series. 
 
As a rule, the towns of the Isle of Man are eerily silent after dark. But that silence is shattered one black night by an explosion followed by the violent ringing of the church bell. The vicar, Sullivan Lee, is discovered praying beside the murdered body of Sir Martin Skollick. Archdeacon Kinrade must summon his old friend, Superintendent Littlejohn of Scotland Yard, to get to the bottom of another perplexing crime.  
 
With the help of Inspector Knell of the Manx C.I.D., Littlejohn sheds light on the victim’s life, uncovering misdeeds and enemies aplenty. A womanizer and a fraud, it’s no wonder someone might want Skollick dead. But the inspectors have much more to unravel before they can clear the vicar’s name.

In the Wild Fields

E.B. Harding

In the Wild Fields 
One year ago, Lucy Wild vanished without a trace after a school dance in Crawford's Mill, Missouri, a close-knit farming town where secrets run as deep as the riverbanks. Despite the town's whispered suspicions and hushed accusations, her body was never found—until now. Discovered near the Tarkio River on the other side of the cornfield, her remains bring grief back to the surface and reignite questions that were never truly answered. 
Griffin Cole never intended to return to Crawford's Mill, a place haunted by his troubled youth and a strict father he could never please. But when his struggling newspaper in St. Joseph needs compelling stories to survive, he's sent back to cover the discovery of Hope's body on the anniversary of her disappearance. He claims to be working on a podcast to get people to open up, but he's really there to find the truth. 
For Griffin, the return is more complicated than just an assignment. He once loved Judith Dixon, now Judith Wild—the grieving mother whose pain is only rivaled by the secrets she guards. Their past was intense and complicated, marked by rivalry with her now-husband, Clayton Wild III, heir to the largest corn farm in the area. Clayton is determined to protect his family's name, even if it means burying the truth. 
As Griffin digs deeper, he finds himself drawn back into the tangled history of Crawford's Mill, where the Wild family's influence touches everything and old loyalties collide with buried lies. Teaming up with a young deputy who secretly questions the sheriff's quick closure of the case, Griffin starts to unravel the dark undercurrents that led to Lucy's death.

The Heir

Darci Wilde

The young Victoria remembers nothing but Kensington Palace. Arriving as a baby, she has been brought up inside its musty, mold-ridden walls. Others may see the value of Kensington's priceless artifacts and objets d'art, but the palace is a jail cell for young Victoria. Watched at all times by her mother, the controlling, German-born Victoire, and Victoire's prized advisor, the power-hungry Sir John Conroy, the bright fifteen-year-old is allowed no freedom at any time—except that which she steals or wheedles for, always in the company of Conroy's resentful daughter, Jane. 
 
 
 
But one fateful afternoon, Victoria slips away from her mother to ride out on her beloved gelding, Prince. With reluctant Jane in tow, the princess gallops out from the palace green. But what would normally be an uneventful trot around very familiar terrain presents the mutinous princess with a most bewildering sight—a dead man, and on the grounds of the palace, no less. 
 
 
 
Determined to get to the bottom of the inscrutable puzzle, young Victoria is met with shocking disrespect and any number of obstacles. Sir John lies to her, her uncles and aunts join with her mother to stonewall her questions and curtail her movements. But Victoria will not be deterred. With Jane Conroy as a tentative and untrustworthy ally, Victoria's first "case" is underway . . .
