Synopsis

It’s sink or swim for British sleuth Patrick Dawlish who embarks on a desperate search for his kidnapped wife in this international crime thriller.   A phone call from the French millionaire Bidot brings Patrick Dawlish and his wife to Brighton on a brilliant summer day, but they don’t leave together. Felicity is kidnapped while swimming, plucked from the sea under Dawlish’s nose.   A frantic Dawlish has few leads to go on. Back in London, he learns that Bidot’s wife is also missing. With he and the Frenchman in the same boat, Dawlish finds that Felicity is collateral damage in a nefarious plot to take away everything that Bidot holds dear—his love, his fortune, and his reputation. But now that Dawlish is in the mix, he’s ready to mitigate that damage by any means necessary.

    Coloring book creator and Washington, DC, bookstore owner Florrie Fox is attending the wedding of her wealthy boss and a famous romance author, who are taking their vows—for the second time—on the grounds of the gorgeous Maxwell mansion.  But it soon becomes clear that the soothing vibe of coloring books is very different from the stress and backstabbing in some corners of the literary world. 
     
     
      
    Arthur Bedlingham, for example, barely makes a living despite the many awards he's won—and his chances for better sales haven't been helped by the vicious review he just got from another guest at the party.

    When Arthur's assistant, an aspiring writer, is murdered during the festivities, Florrie realizes this is no color-by-numbers case, and she'll have to sort out the complicated secrets among this creative crowd of suspects . . .

    The FBI moves swiftly with a major investigation while Kate Page, a reporter with a newswire service, digs deep into the story. In the wake of the Fulton family's abduction, questions emerge, including one of the most troubling: is the case linked to Lori Fulton's tragic past? 
     
     
     
    Working as fast as they can, Kate and the investigators inch closer to a devastating truth—it's not only the Fultons' lives at stake, but thousands of others . . . and every second counts in the race to save them.

    Is Jane Austen the newest member of the Vampire Book Club? 
    What more could a diehard fan ask for? Except that Jane is undead and unamused… 
    To bookshop owner and witch Quinn Callahan’s delight, Jane Austen shows up for the late-night Vampire Book Club in Ballydehag, Ireland. Quinn’s thrilled and aching to ask her favorite author all the questions every rabid reader has about Jane's books, especially Pride and Prejudice. But Jane isn't in Ballydehag on a social call. She’s on a mission to stop the latest movie version of her most famous book from being made. Having Pride and Prejudice turned into a pornographic film is too much for the undead author to bear. 
    Dermott Lynch ditched Ballydehag seventeen years ago for the bright lights of Hollywood, leaving behind at least one broken heart and some very bad feelings. Now, he’s back, flashy and full of himself, wowing the townsfolk, and scouting locations for his movie, though it's obvious he’s never read a single page of Pride and Prejudice. 
    While excitement ripples through the locals at the prospect of having a movie shot in a village that doesn’t see much excitement (in daylight, anyway), the vampires living at Devil’s Keep are far from impressed. They prefer to keep Ballydehag quiet and remote. And Dermott Lynch could ruin it all. 
    Quinn, Jane, Lochlan Balfour, and his fellow vampires are determined to block this unsavory character from besmirching the classic novel. But as dark feelings grow, rather than a porno, the movie could end up being a murder mystery.
