  Alec never expected his first assignment as a Collector for Solitaire to test more than just his strength. 
  Standing nearly seven feet tall and armed with martial arts training, Alec is used to his size and presence doing most of the work. But when he’s sent to collect a debt from a frail woman named Terry, he quickly realizes this isn’t the straightforward job he anticipated. 
  The scene is set for conflict, with Alec prepared to use calculated force—until an unexpected challenger steps forward: Terry’s uncle, a fast and skilled defender willing to fight for her. Their tense standoff escalates when a thrown knife turns the tables, leaving Alec questioning not only the ethics of his new role but also the hidden depths of Solitaire’s operations. 
  With his first job ending in chaos but somehow deemed a success, Alec learns that in Solitaire, winning isn’t always about strength—it’s about navigating the murky waters of loyalty, morality, and the unexpected twists of fate. As Alec earns his card as the Two of Spades, he finds himself drawn further into a world where nothing is as simple as it seems. 
  Fast-paced, action-packed, and layered with moral dilemmas, The Two of Spades is a gripping addition to the Solitaire Series that fans won’t want to miss.

  "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.

  When an amateur sleuth's pub colleague is bumped off, can she work out who called time at the bar? 
   
   
   
  Since getting her life back on track after being wrongly accused of murder, Julia Ford is finally realizing her ambition of opening a bookshop in the sleepy English village of Biddle Rhyne. 
   
   
   
  But, best laid plans and all that, things go awry when she stumbles upon the body of Barry, who worked alongside her in the local pub. 
   
   
   
  That another murder has occurred doesn't take much deducing: the knife sticking out of his back strongly suggests it was no accident. 
   
   
   
  This is just the beginning of a series of strange occurrences, including stolen diggers, giant haystacks, haunted playground swings, and human remains that drag Julia, kicking and screaming, into another serious(ish) investigation. 
   
   
   
  Juggling a nascent career in crime-solving with one in bookselling, Julia has a lot on her plate. Can she catch another killer, or was her first case beginner's luck?
