Synopsis

It could be lights out for British sleuth Patrick Dawlish when a dangerous new drug hits London and falls into the hands of a criminal mastermind.   After a Paris vacation with his wife, Patrick Dawlish steps off the train and is welcomed home by trouble, to no one’s surprise. An esteemed medical researcher who wanted Dawlish’s help while being blackmailed has gone missing. For months the poor doctor’s mind has been wracked with fear, derailing his work on a cure for a devastating virus and plunging him into financial ruin.   The search for the doctor puts a target on Dawlish’s back—and everyone close to him—just as a series of bizarre murders begin. Some small-time crooks are drugged into a blissful sleep never to awaken again. And that’s enough to convince Dawlish that there’s a big-time thief behind the scenes, one who’s gotten his hands on the ultimate weapon to satisfy his lust for wealth and power . . .

    In the unforgiving streets of the Bronx, there are two kinds of people—the ones who hustle and the ones who get hustled. The Silk Noose is the gripping origin story of Vanessa Finessa, a young woman who’s mastered the art of the finesse, turning survival into a science and the streets into her playground. 
    From the moment she was born into struggle, Vanessa knew the world wouldn’t hand her anything. Raised by a single mother working overtime to keep the lights on, she learned early that power isn’t given—it’s taken. Watching the game from the shadows, she studied the moves of those who made it and the mistakes of those who didn’t. By the time she hit her teenage years, she was no longer just observing—she was playing, outsmarting, and outmaneuvering the very people who underestimated her. 
    But the thing about the game? It never lets you leave clean. Every finesse comes with a price, and when the stakes get too high, Vanessa is forced to ask herself: Is she controlling the hustle, or is it controlling her? 
    Told in raw, unfiltered prose, The Silk Noose is a story of ambition, power, and the cost of survival. It’s about the choices we make, the consequences we can’t escape, and the question every hustler eventually faces—how far are you willing to go to win? 
    Perfect for fans of urban fiction, street-lit, and high-stakes drama, The Silk Noose pulls no punches and takes you deep into a world where every move matters, and trust is the deadliest gamble of all. 
    Narrated by Darius Steele, this audiobook brings Vanessa’s world to life with intensity, grit, and undeniable energy. 
    Press play—because once you step into Vanessa Finessa’s world, there’s no turning back.

    🍞 Artisan baker Crusty Kate is thrilled when her sourdough starter wins first prize at the county fair, but her triumph turns stale when the judge is found dead in her bakery—his face pressed into a suspiciously perfect loaf that definitely didn't come from her oven. The police suspect an allergic reaction, but Kate's sharp eyes spot that the bread box crime scene has been staged and the victim's notes contain coded comments about flour fraud. With her bakery temporarily closed and her reputation getting moldy, Kate must knead through the lies to find the truth. Assisted by her retired baker uncle and the charming grain mill owner who supplies her flour, Kate uncovers a scheme involving stolen heritage grains, sabotaged starters, and a black market for ancient wheat varieties. From suspicious fermentation patterns that suggest temperature tampering to crust textures that reveal unusual baking methods, every loaf tells a story. But when Kate discovers the victim was about to expose a conspiracy that threatened every small baker in the state, she realizes the killer is someone who knows their way around a proofing basket. With the annual Bread Festival rising on the horizon, Kate must prove her innocence before her business is toast.
