Sinopse

In gritty Glasgow, a police detective confronts criminals—as well as an enemy that lies within . . . In the seedy environs of 1980s Glasgow, Scotland, it takes guts to be a cop. DI Luc Kidston has guts—though he also has a weak spot thanks to his fear of heights. Now he must focus on finding a samurai sword–wielding vigilante—and untangling the case of one of his protégés, who’s been arrested for allegedly putting a woman into a coma. Solving both problems will lead Kidston to take some unorthodox steps, including hiring a forensic hypnotist. It will also bring him into conflict with his own colleagues and lead him to fight for his life in a terrifying showdown . . .

    Celebrities get away with murder. 
     
     
     
    Assistant District Attorney Jessie Black doesn't believe that. She believes the law applies to everyone, and that justice and truth prevail. 
     
     
     
    But according to veteran prosecutor Ned Ransom, it's exactly what happened six years ago, when hip-hop superstar Jurdel Frazier threw his wife off a fifteenth floor hotel balcony and was found not guilty by a starstruck jury. 
     
     
     
    Now history repeats itself. Police find the cold, dead body of Frazier's new girlfriend, and Jessie finds herself next to Ransom at the prosecution table. 
     
     
     
    But is this a second chance for justice, or something more sinister—and deadly? The more Jessie uncovers, the more she worries that this case is not what it appears. 
     
     
     
    And the person she begins to trust the least is the prosecutor sitting next to her.

    "The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax" is one of the 56 Sherlock Holmes short stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. It is one of the eight stories in the cycle collected as His Last Bow, and one of the few stories in which for much of the plot Watson must act alone and try his best with Holmes left in the background.
    Holmes sends Dr. Watson to Lausanne to investigate Lady Frances Carfax's disappearance since he himself is too busy in London. Lady Frances is a lone, unwed woman denied a rich inheritance on account of her sex. She does, however, carry valuable jewels with her. It is also her habit to write to her old governess, Miss Dobney, every other week, but for the past five weeks, there has not been a word from her. She has left the Hôtel National for parts unknown. Her last two bank transactions were cheques, one to pay her hotel bill, and another for £50 to her maid, Miss Marie Devine.

    Born a year apart, May and June Anderson were once as close as twins. Time and a loveless marriage changed the once vibrant May into June's timid counterpart. Now, two years after June abruptly disappeared, May receives a letter from her sister, inviting her to visit a mysterious colony in southern California. Eager to match June's boldness for once, May doesn't hesitate. 
     
     
     
    The Colony is located in a magnificent Spanish Revival-style mansion perched on a bluff overlooking the Pacific, and is presided over by the group's charismatic leader, Rex. Colony members believe in an afterlife where departed souls mingle, and that the truly enlightened can even summon back the spirits of lost loved ones. May is told that June has recently left on a mission, and she's intrigued enough to accept Rex's invitation to stay until her sister's return. 
     
     
     
    Drawn deeper into the group, and under Rex's seductive spell, May undergoes their initiation ceremony. Yet her questions grow more urgent with June's continued absence—and the warnings of a presumptuous but charming undercover investigator. May has longed for the daring, adventurous life her sister pursued, but her arrival has sparked a dangerous unraveling within the Colony, where nothing and no one is quite as it seems.

    A pretty face can get away with murder 
    Ask any cop: domestic disturbances are the worst. Family squabbles are ugly, emotional, vicious fights that can turn deadly in a heartbeat. And when the family you’re talking about is the Mafia, you’d better be ready for anything. 
    The Lucarelli Family’s new boss is consolidating his grip on the Mob. But not everyone is happy with Vinnie the Oil Man’s leadership. A routine trip to court lands Detective Erin O’Reilly in the line of fire when gangsters start shooting right on the courthouse steps. To keep her promise to a dying man, Erin finds herself working with Witness Protection to guard a gangster’s son. 
    Meanwhile, when a young woman in Brooklyn is savagely murdered, evidence points to the victim’s Mafia connections. Erin and her trusty K-9 Rolf sniff out a terrified witness who can point them to the killer… if the woman can be convinced to testify. 
    Then Erin gets a job offer from the most unlikely source imaginable. All she has to do is silence the witness—permanently. Erin and her lover, reformed bomb-maker Morton Carlyle, will have to lay it all on the line in a desperate plan which could nail a murderer and save an innocent woman’s life… or blow apart everything they’ve been trying to build.

    Jack didn’t expect the end of his trust to come wrapped in elegant deception, or that a golden ring might hold the key to his future. Exhausted and haunted by his own scars, Jack is led into a hotel room by the enigmatic Yuko, where a relic from his past sits waiting — Joseph, an old ally steeped in secrecy. Promises of healing and a return to normalcy dangle like a whiskey-soaked mirage, but nothing in Jack's tangled world comes without a price. 
    As the intricate web of the Solitaire organization unfolds, every card in Jack’s hand — from his father’s cryptic legacy to a deadly game of hidden treasures — becomes a matter of survival. Amidst hazel-eyed deals and whispers of treacherous decks, Jack is offered a Faustian bargain: the chance to rewrite his shattered body, but at a cost that could strip him of the last ties to his storied past. 
    In this gripping episode, loyalty blurs and shadows deepen, driving Jack to the most secretive corners of Nevada, where the stakes are not just his scars, but the very essence of who he is — or who he might become. With a crafty ally, a mysterious surgeon, and the ever-loyal Boris by his side, Jack sets out to say farewell to the man he knows in hopes of becoming something more… or risk losing everything he can't afford to bet. 
    Listen to "The Three of Diamonds" and dive into a world where every drink is a wager, every conversation a gamble, and every choice could be your last.
