  When eight immigrants arrived at the Baltimore Federal Courthouse to be sworn in as new citizens they didn’t give a thought to the trial next door of five terrorists charged with blowing up a federal building. Baltimore Sun Reporter Mark Shrader did care about that trial. His wife and unborn child had been killed in that explosion, but in spite of his pleas to cover the case he was instead ordered to write a Sunday-Supplement article on the new citizens. Then the terrorists escaped their guards, invaded the immigrants' courtroom, and took them all hostage. Mark Shrader had prayed that someday he would have the chance for vengeance on his wife’s killers. Now it appeared that his chance might have come. Mark Shrader asked the immigrants to help him fight back against their captors and several of them agreed. As they organized their attack on the killers, hostage Le Thai Mai’s grown son, a rookie Baltimore police officer, embarked on a desperate and unauthorized plan to save his mother’s life. But would he be able to reach her in time?

  🪑 Antique shop owner Eleanor Rigby thought she'd found the deal of a century when she acquired a rare Victorian armchair at an estate sale. But when a notorious antique dealer is found dead in her shop—stabbed with a vintage letter opener and slumped in the very same chair—Eleanor's bargain becomes a death sentence. The police suspect a robbery gone wrong, but Eleanor notices the chair's upholstery has been recently disturbed and a hidden compartment reveals century-old love letters that point to a scandalous family secret. With her business reputation collapsing faster than a poorly made replica, Eleanor must polish her investigative skills. Assisted by her knowledgeable apprentice and the charming local historian, she uncovers a web of forgery, stolen heirlooms, and bitter rivalries in the tight-knit antique community. From suspicious provenance documents to hidden messages in furniture maker's marks, every clue is buried in the past. But when Eleanor discovers the killer is using antique auctions as a front for something much more dangerous, she must solve this vintage mystery before she becomes the next item on the killer's collection list.

  A country descending into civil war . . . 
   
   
   
  A young artist forced to cross a nation in chaos to retrieve her stolen masterpiece . . . 
   
   
   
  Her guide and guardian—whose past remains strangely obscure . . . 
   
   
   
  Georgie O'Halloran created an artistic and literary wonder—only to have it stolen from her and published under the thief's name. Worse, it's the inspiration for a wildly popular video game that's become a favorite among the militants seeking to transform America through bloodshed. 
   
   
   
  To confront the plagiarist, Georgie must cross an entire continent erupting in violence. Her only companion: Shane Riordan, "Irish as wet grass," a fiercely loyal friend with a beautiful singing voice, an oddly encyclopedic memory—and impressive fighting skills. 
   
   
   
  It turns out, however, that Georgie isn't the only one on a cross-country quest. Shane is on a journey all his own, far beyond even Georgie's imagining.
