Sinopse

A tale of murder and international intrigue from the multimillion-selling, award-winning author. 
 
Looking forward to a relaxing afternoon away from the trials of Department Z, Bob Kerr eagerly awaits the arrival of fellow agent Lois Dacre. He is temporarily amused by the sight of a passerby oddly dressed in an enormous fur coat on an exceptionally warm day.  
 
Then, interrupted by a call from Agent Craigie, Kerr is alerted to new developments in the principality of Vallena. Kerr cuts the call short to answer a knock at his door. And the visitor is the man in the fur coat—who has arrived from Vallena . . . 
 
The information the man relays to Kerr is life threatening. There is a hit out on his own life—and Kerr is next on the list. As the assassinations in Vallena mount, British officials are put in the line of fire. Agent Kerr and Department Z must work swiftly and tirelessly in order to topple a criminal organization before another life is lost . . .

    In this new installment of Ken Bruen's beloved Jack Taylor series, the whiskey-swigging Irish detective investigates a series of violent attacks on the local convent's nuns. 
     
     
     
    Jack Taylor wakes up from a coma to discover that much of the world has changed since he last walked the streets of Galway. The pandemic had hit while he was under, devastating the lives of many in his beloved city and beyond. Now, as Jack tries to recover from the attack that put him in the hospital and absorb the incredible changes in the world around him, a woman approaches him with a distressing case: two local nuns have been bludgeoned by a mysterious man wielding a hammer, and more are sure to follow. As the police fail to act while the violence against the Sisters escalates, Jack seems like their only hope. 
     
     
     
    Initially wary of becoming involved in the investigation, Jack finds he cannot stay away from the mystery surrounding these vicious attacks. He also cannot shake a feeling of darkness that has haunted him since he awoke from his coma—a darkness that is far too close for comfort. Luckily an old friend is there to help see him through and there is always Jack's dark wit and a drink to help shore up his mood.

    Sometimes it's not even your own ghosts that come back to haunt you. 
    Just when Everly Dupree thinks she's put all her spectral problems to rest, her mother becomes the prime suspect in a psychic's murder. 
    When elderly resident Baxter Thomas vanishes from Mooselick River's assisted living facility, renowned psychic Davina Benet swoops into town offering her expertise. As a specialist in finding missing persons, Davina promises quick results—until she turns up dead before her search can begin. 
    The main suspect? Kitty Dupree, Everly's mother, who made no secret of her grudge against the self-proclaimed medium. 
    With the sheriff eyeing her family and a ghost who's surprisingly tight-lipped, Everly must unravel decades-old secrets if she wants to clear her mother's name and help Davina cross into the light. But digging into Kitty's past reveals family skeletons better left buried. 
    Between finding missing Baxter, solving Davina's murder, and uncovering what her mother's been hiding all these years, Everly's hands are fuller than a cemetery on Halloween night. 
    After all, the dead may tell no tales—but family secrets have a way of refusing to stay buried.

    A locked conservatory. A dead collector. And a single word traced in the mist on glass: WAIT. 
    When Miss Evelyn Wrexham arrives at 221B Baker Street with chlorophyll stains on her gloves and a mystery she cannot solve alone, Sherlock Holmes is drawn into a case where the deadliest secrets are cultivated in silence. Her father, Sir Basil Wrexham—wealthy collector, celebrated botanist, and a man few will mourn—has been found dead in his sealed conservatory, the door bolted from within, a cryptic message fading on the glass beside him. 
    The police are satisfied: heart failure, they say, and an eccentric’s final scrawl. But Holmes sees what others overlook—a puncture wound no wider than a thorn prick, a humidity pattern that tells the story of an opened window, and the conspicuous absence of a rare orchid that someone has taken extraordinary pains to hide. 
    As Holmes and Watson peel back the layers of a household bound by resentment, ambition, and long-simmering injustice, they uncover a web of deception rooted in a question as old as empire itself: who owns the work of a man’s hands? 
    From the gaslit corridors of Chelsea to the humid darkness of a Victorian greenhouse, this riveting mystery blends the classic deductive brilliance of Holmes with a haunting meditation on pride, class, and the things that grow in captivity—including rage. 
    A locked room. A stolen masterpiece. A riddle that only the great detective can solve—and a truth that may be harder to bear than the crime itself.
