  Midwife Sarah Malloy and her private investigator husband, Frank, must stop a killer lurking among a young family in the newest installment of the USA Today bestselling Gaslight Mysteries. 
   
  Hugh Breedlove is far from the most agreeable client private investigator Frank Malloy has ever had, but his case is impossible to refuse: his young niece, Julia, has been wrongfully committed to an insane asylum by her cruel and unfaithful  
  husband, Chet Longly. Though Breedlove and his wife seem more interested in protecting the family reputation than their niece’s safety, Frank and Sarah agree to help for the sake of Julia and the young son she left behind. 
   
  Frank and Sarah’s investigation reveals a dark secret—a maid at the Longly home died suspiciously under Chet’s watch, and now it seems Julia’s son might also be in danger. The Malloys fear they are dealing with a man more dangerous than  
  they had anticipated, one who will do anything to defame his wife. But all is not as it seems in the Longly family, and perhaps another monster is hiding in plain sight…

  "...a bravura performance..." —Dwight Jon Zimmerman, New York Times bestselling author
   
  For B-24 bomber pilot Al Lycoming, the mission was history in the making. For Women’s Airforce Service Pilot Vivian Wright, it was a chance to put her skills to the ultimate test...and share in the burden of combat.

  But when his co-pilot falls ill at the last moment, Al secretly finds help from an unlikely source—Vivian.
   
  Together, the two fly towards dark skies filled with enemy flak and fighters...and into the pages of history.
   
  With perspectives from American and German pilots alike, When Heroes Flew masterfully weaves together one of the most dangerous and incredible aerial operations of World War Two with a riveting tale of bravery, suspense, and self-sacrifice.

  A ritualistic grave. A silent widow. A secret that refused to stay buried.
  
  Wilhelm Jacobsson was a man defined by his friction - a stubborn, fiercely independent farmer who spent his life at war with his neighbors. But when he vanishes without a trace from the Gotland ferry, his silence becomes more dangerous than his words.
  
  Days later, during the revelry of Gotland's Medieval Week, the festivities are shattered by a gruesome discovery. In the shadow of the ancient Iron Age ruins of Vallhagar, a dog unearths Wilhelm's body. He hasn't just been murdered; he has been staged in a 'chieftain's burial,' complete with a crushed snake at his feet - a symbolic warning from a killer who plays by ancient rules.
  
  Detective Inspector Maria Wern, on Gotland for what was supposed to be a peaceful summer working vacation, is thrust into a community where the past is never truly dead. Wilhelm knew something that made him a target, and his widow, Mona, knows it too - but she isn't talking.
  
  Under the scorching Baltic sun, Maria and her team must navigate a maze of local grudges and cryptic symbols. In a land of limestone 'rauk' formations and monastery ruins, the truth is within Maria's grasp, but it is wearing a mask she doesn't yet recognize. She has only days to unmask a killer before the ancient soil of Gotland claims another victim.
  
  'The Silver Crown... is a page turner and that's that.' - The Police Magazine
  
  'Anna Jansson has a depth in her thrillers that other authors lack. Her empathy and finesse are unique. When she ties together all the threads it's thrilling from page one. The books about Maria keep getting better and better.' - Länstidningen Södertälje Sweden

  'An intriguing read and I really enjoyed it. I think the author caught the era just right' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ real reader review
  December 1922, and society dressmaker Jemima Flowerday receives a letter from Lady Hamlash of Merry Beggars Hall, requesting three new gowns for the Christmas season. Lady Hamlash does not travel, so Jemima will need to visit the Hall in deepest Suffolk to work in situ.
  The commission appeals to Jemima for more than one reason. It will bring her some much-needed income. More interestingly, the remote manor house was the scene of a grisly murder earlier that year, when Lady Hamlash, inspecting her plants in the walled garden, found a man's severed head beneath a terracotta asparagus cloche.
  The murder was never solved.
  Jemima, addicted to mystery novels and with a proud history of solving crimes in her own world, is sure she can crack the case. That ambition becomes a little more complicated when, within hours of her arrival at Merry Beggars Hall, the household cook dies in front of her…
