The Librarian of Crooked Lane -...

C.J. Archer

A librarian with a mysterious past, a war hero with a secret, and the heist of a magic painting. THE LIBRARIAN OF CROOKED LANE is an intriguing new fantasy from C.J. Archer, the USA Today bestselling author of the Glass and Steele series.
Librarian Sylvia Ashe knows nothing about her past, having grown up without a father and a mother who refused to discuss him. When she stumbles upon a diary that suggests she’s descended from magicians, she’s skeptical. After all, magicians are special, and she’s just an ordinary woman who loves books. She seeks answers from a member of the most prominent family of magicians, but she quickly learns that finding the truth won’t be easy, especially when he turns out to be as artless as her, and more compelling and dangerous than books.
War hero Gabe is gifted with wealth, a loving family, and an incredible amount of luck that saw him survive four harrowing years of a brutal war without injury. But not all injuries are visible. Burying himself in his work as a consultant for Scotland Yard, Gabe is going through the motions as he investigates the theft of a magician-made painting. But his life changes when he unwittingly gets Sylvia dismissed from her job and places her in danger.
After securing her new employment in a library housing the world’s greatest collection of books about magic, Gabe and Sylvia’s lives become intwined as they work together to find both the painting and the truth about Sylvia’s past before powerful people can stop them.
But sometimes the past is better left buried…

Burying the Evidence

K.T. Lee

Dr. Sophie Armstrong just got her first big win after a year of setbacks. An ecologist at Riverbend’s Indiana Polytechnic, she lands a partnership with Wilderness Watch, a leader in remote surveillance, to commercialize remote wildlife cameras. Everything is on the line—her career, her department’s financial future, and her reputation. This is Sophie’s last chance to prove she isn’t anything like her wildlife-smuggling, law-breaking family members who were very publicly arrested in Riverbend.
Special Agent Blake Evans and his K-9 partner, Ranger, are ready to settle down. They’ve spent the past several years investigating arson to prevent wildfires, and life on the road isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. When a job offer comes from Riverbend K-9 Academy, Blake jumps at the opportunity to train other agents and finally put down some roots in the small Indiana town.
When Sophie finds a gun repair kit as she’s setting cameras in the woods, she doesn’t think much of it…until she gets back to Riverbend and her cameras malfunction. Amidst injuries, fires, and unexplained data deletions, she’s in over her head. As much as she would rather avoid the FBI, she soon realizes that Blake and his playful Labrador retriever are exactly what she needs. With no time to spare, Sophie, Blake, and Ranger must team up to protect the people and wilderness they love.
Burying the Evidence is Book 5 in the Riverbend K-9 Series. All books in the Riverbend K-9 Series may be enjoyed as standalone novels or as a series.
