  Before he wrote the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson hunted ghosts. 
  Williamsburg, Virginia, 1761. Eighteen-year-old Thomas Jefferson is a brilliant law student content in his world of books, music, and philosophical debate. His mentor, the esteemed George Wythe, has trained him to pursue truth through reason and evidence. But when the servants at the Governor's Palace begin reporting impossible occurances—whispered voices from empty rooms, mechanical figures moving in the shadows, objects appearing and disappearing without explanation—Jefferson's orderly world collides with something he cannot dismiss: a mystery that defies rational explanation. 
  The Williamsburg Automaton Conspiracy is historical fiction reimagined—a steampunk mystery that combines meticulous period detail with mechanical marvels, political intrigue with paranormal investigation. Perfect for readers who love the intellectual puzzles of Sherlock Holmes, the historical richness of "The Alienist", and the mechanical ingenuity of steampunk adventure.

  Knowledge is (power) peril... 
  In a city as large as Chicago, the wicked never sleep. When an undocumented migrant teenager goes missing, military veteran and Special Agent Amelia Storm teams up with her partner to take down what could be the most shocking forced labor and sex trafficking ring her hometown has ever seen. 
  The case reeks of mafia involvement, but even with an investigative reporter as an informant, there’s little in the way of leads. Suspicions cast a wide web, and the stakes climb when the boy’s sister and their journalist informant also disappear. Still, no one is talking, and every second counts if they hope to find them alive. 
  As sinister secrets are unearthed, Amelia won’t stop until she frees the innocent from the evil that lurks in the shadows of her beloved city. What she discovers hits a little too close to home. Was her brother involved? She needs to know, but some answers are better left unasked. 
  From the dark minds of Mary Stone and Amy Wilson comes Storm’s Peril, book two of the Amelia Storm Series, where you’ll be tempted to peek through the curtains to be sure evil hasn’t chosen you.

  New York, September 1949. When Dennis Collins arrives at Madison Square Garden for the Friday night fights, he is on top of the world. His career as the man-about-town columnist of the New York Sentinel is on the upswing; his beloved Brooklyn Dodgers are contending for the pennant; and a lover who had jilted him years ago has unexpectedly agreed to drinks and dinner at the Stork Club. Collins is sure that his luck has turned for the better. 
  But at the Garden his closest childhood friend, Morris Rose, approaches him for help. Rose asks Collins to safeguard microfilmed documents that he says will prove his innocence in a State Department loyalty investigation. Out of friendship, Collins reluctantly agrees to hold the microfilm for a week. 
  When Rose disappears from the scene, and FBI agents begin asking hard questions, Collins must solve a puzzle that somehow involves his friend, a shadowy former OSS officer, and a beautiful refugee, Karina, with a troubled past. 
  Collins discovers that both American and Soviet operatives desperately want the documents he is holding, and he is drawn into a twilight struggle between intelligence agencies that will challenge his loyalties and test his courage. 
  Rich with historical detail, Herald Square tells a story of intrigue and deception, of ordinary people propelled into a dangerous, clandestine world where duplicity reigns and any misstep can have dire consequences.

  In The Misty Harbor, a missing harbormaster turns up, only to be murdered on his first night home, in another captivating tale featuring Georges Simenon’s intrepid Inspector Maigret.A man, clad in brand-new clothes with no identification, is found on the streets of Paris. Mute, he also has a bullet hole in his head that has been perfectly patched up—altogether a strange fellow, yet affable. His maid Julie soon turns up to claim him; he is Captain Yves Joris, the harbormaster at Ouistreham. Maigret accompanies the pair safely back home, but the next morning, the captain dies, poisoned. Maigret decides to stay, pacing the thickly fog-obscured docks, striking up conversations with busy figures. The new harbormaster doesn’t know why three hundred thousand francs would have been transferred into Joris’s account. Mayor Grandmaison has an attitude that suggests he’d rather be mingling with the town’s social elite. Julie herself is loath to share anything relating to her brother, the secretive ex-convict Big Louis, for fear of appearances. There’s a nebulous danger lurking in this little town—things are leaving a bad impression for Maigret, and he won’t rest until he learns what happened to the captain.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux
