  Marked for death, a hitman must figure out how to save himself and exact a final revenge before his past catches up to him.Perfect for fans of Eli Cranor and Tulsa King, this thrilling mafia tale shows what happens when loyalty isn’t a two-way street.There was a time when being a “made man” meant something. Angelo Cipriani was a member of the inner circle of the powerful Fortunato Crime Family, which controlled the Upper Ohio Valley. Of course, Angelo would never admit that such an organization existed, let alone to all of the bodies he dropped for his boss. Angelo was a loyal soldier, even after a rival family strafed him with bullets and put him in a coma for three weeks.But times have changed. Four decades have passed, and the glory days of mob rule have waned. As drugs replace the mob’s traditional revenue streams and the FBI looks to bring down the Fortunatos, Angelo finds himself on the outside with the current administration, essentially, “on the shelf.” He spends his days pining over a waitress at the local diner and reminiscing with a one-legged former colleague in a nursing home.Angelo was a man of honor in a world that he now barely recognizes.But when the FBI shows up, Angelo realizes the past is far from dead and buried. Faced with old secrets and fresh betrayals, Angelo finds himself unretired: The Last Hitman is ready to get back to work.

  Widowed Georgina Drake has no regrets about moving to beautiful, sleepy Little Wenborough in rural Norfolk.

And on top of that she’s suddenly hearing a woman’s voice through her hearing aids.

Is she about to be accused of murder? Georgina needs to pull herself together, try to ignore the distracting voice, and clear her name!

Georgina’s best lead is the deadly oleander found in Roland’s system. Her gardener, Young Tom, had access to the plant, but before she can talk to him Tom becomes the killer’s next victim.
  
   
  As the crimes mount up, so do the clues, but does Georgina have what it takes to follow them to their conclusion? Even when her amateur sleuthing puts her next in the killer’s sights…?
