Sinossi

A forged letter.
 
A ghostly ship.
 
A forbidden love caught between empires.
 
Plunge into the Golden Age of Piracy (1690-1720), where the treacherous waters of the Cape of Good Hope are just the beginning of a worldwide adventure.
 
In the glittering yet treacherous courts of post-coronation France, opulent masquerades hide ruthless plots and dangerous secrets. Count De Mentz, the ambitious Minister of the Crown, schemes to control the lucrative spice trade, by plunging France into a bloody war with Holland. His weapon is deception. a Forged letter framing the legendary Dutch sea captain, Oloff van Wagenaar, as a pirate and a traitor.
 
Branded an outlaw, Oloff must choose between loyalty to his homeland and his love for the French noblewoman Rynette du Bois. With betrayal closing in from every side, he joins forces with a daring prince and his loyal crew of sea dogs to expose the conspiracy before two nations are torn apart. But when whispers spread of a phantom ship prowling the coast, the very vessel Oloff was believed to have died on, the line between myth and treachery blurs. Is it a supernatural omen of doom, or a sinister plot hiding an even darker truth?
 
With the fate of kingdoms and the heart of the woman he loves at stake, Oloff must confront a ruthless enemy in a deadly game of power, passion, and betrayal. The storm is rising, and the Ghost Ship of Biscay may claim him once and for all. Perfect for fans of swashbuckling pirate adventures, epic historical romance, and high-seas intrigue.
 
If you love daring sea captains, forbidden love, political conspiracies, and ghostly maritime legends, this thrilling sixteenth page-turner sea pirate story will keep you hooked until the final wave.

    Paris, 1945. Frederick Rowlands arrives in a city riven by the political turmoil following the Liberation at the behest of MI5 agent, Iris Barnes. A young woman calling herself Clara Metzner has just been released from Ravensbrück concentration camp - and Rowlands, who last met her in Berlin in 1933, has been given the task of confirming whether she is who she says she is. This is far from easy, not only because of Rowlands' blindness, but because Clara's experiences have changed her almost out of recognition. But her evidence may be vital in assisting Iris to track down suspected collaborators in the upper echelons of French society.
    
    Then Clara - or the girl who is claiming to be her - is found dead, in circumstances that point to murder. Thrown into the unfamiliar world of Parisian high society, Rowlands must track down the killer, and prevent further deaths - including his own.

    A massacre in the Scottish Highlands is far more than the family tragedy it first appears to be, in this riveting police procedural. The slaughter of the Dawson family seems to be a heartbreaking case of murder-suicide—another deeply troubled man who violently snapped and killed his wife and children before ending his own life. But DI Alec McKay doesn’t think it’s as open-and-shut as it looks. Why was a BMW parked at the Dawsons’ holiday home on that last day of tourist season—and why are its owners also now dead? Why is the new senior investigating officer acting so erratically? And most chillingly of all, who is sending out packages containing toys taken from the crime scene? Before McKay can close the case, he will have to face down a threat from the past—and a crime that could shatter his heart—in this twist-filled thriller from the acclaimed author whose previous police procedurals, written under the name Michael Walters, were praised as “pulse-pounding” (Chicago Tribune) and “compulsive reading” (The Independent).
