Synopsis

British detective Patrick Dawlish must find two men who can turn the tide of World War II in this breathtaking mystery from the author of Death in Flames.   After solving several sensational cases—and building a stellar reputation—it’s become clear to Intelligence Officer Patrick Dawlish that he doesn’t have to look for trouble for it to find him. Enter Amelia Shortt, the attractive and cunning daughter of a brilliant doctor who’s making strides in helping World War II survivors with shell shock. Amelia thinks she’s convinced Dawlish that someone is blackmailing her father, but Dawlish can’t be manipulated that easily . . .   He decides to play her game, but when she disappears, her father is kidnapped, and a murdered servant is left in their wake, Dawlish soon realizes he’s being drawn into a case with the highest of stakes. One of the doctor’s patients holds national security secrets in his shattered mind—and Dawlish finds himself in a deadly race against England’s enemies to find him . . .

    Cash Blackbear, a young Ojibwe woman and occasional sleuth, is back on the case after a man is found dead on a rural Minnesota farm in the next installment of the acclaimed Native crime series. 
     
    Minnesota, 1970s: It’s spring in the Red River Valley and Cash Blackbear is doing fieldwork for a local farmer—until she finds him dead on the kitchen floor of the property’s rented farmhouse. The tenant, a Native field laborer, and his wife are nowhere to be found, but Cash discovers their young daughter, Shawnee, cowering under a bed. The girl, a possible witness to the killing, is too terrified to speak. 
     
    In the wake of the murder, Cash can’t deny her intuitive abilities: she is suspicious of the farmer’s grieving widow, who offers to take in Shawnee temporarily. While Cash is scouring White Earth Reservation for Shawnee’s missing mother—whom Cash wants to find before the girl is put in the foster system—another body turns up. Concerned by the escalating threat, Cash races against the clock to figure out the truth of what happened in the farmhouse. 
     
    Broken Fields is a compelling, atmospheric read woven with details of American Indian life in northern Minnesota, abusive farm labor practices and women’s liberation.

    International bestselling author Jean-Luc Bannalec's Commissaire Georges Dupin and his team head to Breton paradise in An Island of Suspects. 
     
     
     
    An August heat wave has all of Brittany in its grasp, and the only chance to cool down for Commissaire Georges Dupin is his daily swim in the ocean. Until one morning his routine is interrupted because a body has been found in the harbor with clear signs of foul play. Patric Provost was from one of the long-established families on the island of Belle-Île, Breton's biggest and most famous island. Provost owned and operated a company dealing in an island delicacy: the famous Belle-Île-sheep. As Bretons say, the sheep season themselves while they're eating, grazing on salty, iodine-rich meadows, full of wild herbs, directly by the ocean. In Dupin's culinary ranking, this lamb comes right behind entrecôte. And that's saying something. 
     
     
     
    Dupin has barely stepped foot on the utopia-like island before it comes to light that Provost was not well liked. And someone was blackmailing him for one million euros, the deadline for payment the night before Provost's body was caught on the buoy. Everyone on the island has a motive. Any one of them could be the killer.
