  In The Ambassador's Boots, a mix-up of suitcases on a transatlantic journey sparks a mystery only Tommy and Tuppence Beresford could untangle. What starts as a laugh over mistaken luggage soon reveals layers of intrigue, with secrets hidden beneath the surface of polished diplomacy. As Tommy and Tuppence peel back the mask of innocence, they uncover signs of a dangerous game at play—a game where a single wrong move could have grave consequences. What secrets lie stashed within a pair of boots, and why are people so desperate to hide them? In a world of shadows, even a small clue can open doors to high-stakes conspiracy.

  #1 AMAZON BESTSELLER ~ MULTIPLE AWARD WINNING NOVEL 
  "Draws you right in with imagery and intrigue of a strange dream, very well plotted, left me feeling I was comfortably in the hands of someone who could take me along on a great ride." James Kahn, Bestselling Author and Playwright (The Goonies, Star Trek, Time's Dark Laughter). 
  A terrorist’s plot, the assassination of a prime minister, holds the key to an apocalyptic plot to destroy Europe’s economy. It’s impossible to stop, but one man doesn’t know enough to think the world can’t be saved. He’s no hero; not clever or capable, talented or tested. The Hollow Man is just trying to survive in an uncertain climate where terrorism is changing the rules of how we live. 
  ˃˃˃ THE HOLLOW MAN belongs on the big screen. I'm hoping Hollis ships this novel to either Indie filmmakers or perhaps to the titans in Hollywood. I predict that if this is adapted for film, it will be a mega hit. ~ E.L. Phoenix, AIA Reviewer 
  ˃˃˃ It isn’t often that an action-packed, thrill ride of a spy book will also pack a wallop of humor AND explore the deep recesses of the human soul. Paul Hollis manages to pull off the nearly impossible in The Hollow Man: to present a story that keeps you turning the pages with an intriguing, action-oriented plot that also has unexpected moments of great humor and great pathos. ~ Isobel DuSharm, Amazon Reviewer 
  ˃˃˃ The writing is nothing less than superb and Hollis describes his scenes with stunning creativity. ~ RAV, Amazon Reviewer

  A Study in Scarlet is an 1887 detective novel by Scottish author Arthur Conan Doyle. The story marks the first appearance of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson, who would become the most famous detective duo in popular fiction. The book's title derives from a speech given by Holmes, a consulting detective, to his friend and chronicler Watson on the nature of his work, in which he describes the story's murder investigation as his "study in scarlet": "There's the scarlet thread of murder running through the colourless skein of life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it, and expose every inch of it.

  Fitz of Rage

  Private investigator Geronimo "Fitz" Fitzgerald plies his trade in the coastal Florida city of San Marco. No case is beneath his dignity: taking photos of cheating spouses or digging up dirt on local big shots or serving legal papers to the city's miscreants. They all pay the rent and keep the rum flowing to drown out the voices from his past. 
   
   
   
  However, Fitz is reluctant to take a job helping high school football coach Mack Thorpe, mainly because of the coach's uncontrollable temper. But the case, in which Thorpe is the main suspect in the rage-fueled murder of a United States senator, is too intriguing to turn down. When Fitz teams up with local journalist Mattie Castro, they learn that the senator's death, as well as subsequent murders, are tied to the senator's groundbreaking policy to alleviate homelessness in his district. 
   
   
   
  The investigation leads Fitz and Mattie from the cream of local society to the clutches of a swamp-dwelling, meth-cooking family. Things turn from grim to worse when Mattie is lured away by the killer, who is intent on making her another victim, even if it means killing Fitz first.

  The Lost and the Blind

  A mystery in modern-day rural Ireland may have roots in World War II, in this thriller by a “fine dramatic writer and storyteller” (Booklist).   The elderly German, Karl Uxkull, was either senile or desperate for attention. Why else would he concoct a tale of Nazi atrocity on the remote island of Delphi, off the coast of Donegal? And why now, sixty years after the event, just when Irish-American billionaire Shay Govern has tendered for a gold prospecting license in Lough Swilly?   Journalist Tom Noone doesn’t want to know. With his young daughter Emily to provide for, and a new ghostwriting commission for Shay Govern’s biography, the timing is all wrong. Besides, can it be mere coincidence that Karl Uxkull’s tale bears an uncanny resemblance to a thriller written by spy novelist Sebastian Devereaux, the reclusive English author who has spent the past fifty years holed up on Delphi?   But when a body is discovered drowned, Tom and Emily find themselves running for their lives in pursuit of the truth that is their only hope of survival.   “Burke has a real knack for dialogue and phrasing.” —Publishers Weekly   “Readers . . . will be rewarded with an unholy Chinese box of a thriller. Make that an Irish-German box.” —Kirkus Reviews
