The Springtime Chime of Marielle Clarac

Haruka Momo

Sinopse

Spring is in the air, but it’s shaping up to be a spooktacular season!
 
After the Duke of Embourg’s unfortunate passing, Prince Severin invites Marielle and Simeon to visit the duke’s bereaved wife and daughter. Embourg is a town with centuries’ worth of heritage, and its fortresslike castle is the most historical of all. An old place like that is bound to have a ghost story or two...and one might have just come to life!
 
Every night, behind a locked door in the late duke’s bedroom, a bell rings all on its own with no plausible explanation. The duke’s terrified widow fears her husband may be giving a dire warning from beyond the grave—of a curse that will claim their daughter’s life! But is it actually a ghost, or some other manner of foul play? Marielle is determined to get to the bottom of this macabre mystery...despite Simeon’s skepticism!
 
The tenth volume in the adventures of the now happily married fangirl who obsesses over her husband and everyone around him!

The Colony of Lost Souls

Kelsey James

Born a year apart, May and June Anderson were once as close as twins. Time and a loveless marriage changed the once vibrant May into June's timid counterpart. Now, two years after June abruptly disappeared, May receives a letter from her sister, inviting her to visit a mysterious colony in southern California. Eager to match June's boldness for once, May doesn't hesitate. 
 
 
 
The Colony is located in a magnificent Spanish Revival-style mansion perched on a bluff overlooking the Pacific, and is presided over by the group's charismatic leader, Rex. Colony members believe in an afterlife where departed souls mingle, and that the truly enlightened can even summon back the spirits of lost loved ones. May is told that June has recently left on a mission, and she's intrigued enough to accept Rex's invitation to stay until her sister's return. 
 
 
 
Drawn deeper into the group, and under Rex's seductive spell, May undergoes their initiation ceremony. Yet her questions grow more urgent with June's continued absence—and the warnings of a presumptuous but charming undercover investigator. May has longed for the daring, adventurous life her sister pursued, but her arrival has sparked a dangerous unraveling within the Colony, where nothing and no one is quite as it seems.

Salvaged

TJ Hawk

Burma oozes greed, corruption, and hope. When an Air Force 
 X-37B mini-space shuttle mysteriously crash lands along the  
China-Burma border, the Department of Homeland Security tags  
contractor Gar Randolph to get it back. India and China deploy  
special-forces to do the same. All will co-exist for the next several  
weeks. 
Gar assembles a most unusual team to find the wreckage and carry 
 its Top Secret components back to Siam. Included is the last  
person on earth the US Government would want on the mission,  
a drug lord named Ar Phat. On a converging vector is a missionary  
nutritionist with six Rohingya orphans.  
Seemingly unrelated initiatives coalesce during a complex scenario  
that include deception, pursuit, and classic slight-of-hand  
misdirection. Characters are colorful, impassioned, and bold. The  
storyline moves quickly as tensions build. Adventure flares at every  
turn of the page.
