Sinopse

“You must be firm, Gordon. It doesn’t matter in the least whether Sibell loves him or hates him. She must marry him, otherwise we shall both find ourselves in the cart. So there must be no argument. Don’t you agree?” asked the woman.“Of course I agree, my dear Etta. But my ward is stubborn and absolutely refuses to see him again,” replied the bald-headed, deformed man who stood at Lady Wyndcliffe’s side at the window of her private sitting-room overlooking the golden sands and summer sea at the Grand Hotel on the Digue at Knocke, on the Belgian coast.

    Criminal profiler in training (and newlywed) Jessie Hunt, 29, discovers that dark secrets lurk in her new suburban town; when a body turns up dead, she finds herself caught in the crosshairs of her newfound friends, her husband’s secrets, her serial killer caseload—and the secrets of her own dark past.
     
    In THE PERFECT WIFE (A Jessie Hunt Psychological Suspense Thriller—Book One), Criminal profiler-in-training Jessie Hunt is sure she's finally put the darkness of her childhood behind her. She and her husband, Kyle, just moved from a cramped downtown Los Angeles apartment into a Westport Beach mansion. Kyle's promotion has them swimming in money. And Jessie is on the verge of getting her Master's degree in forensic psychology, the last step in her dream of becoming a criminal profiler.
     
    But soon after their arrival, Jessie begins to notice a series of strange developments. The neighbors—and their au pairs—all seem to be hiding secrets. The mysterious yacht club Kyle is desperate to join is rife with cheating spouses, and with troubling rules of its own. And the notorious serial killer being held at the psychiatric hospital where Jessie is completing her degree seems to know more about her life than is normal—or safe.
     
    As her world starts to unravel, Jessie begins to question everything around her—including her own sanity. Has she truly uncovered a disturbing conspiracy buried within a sunny, wealthy Southern California beach town? Does the mass murderer she's studying really somehow know the origin of her private nightmares?
     
    Or has her tortured past finally come back to claim her?
     
    A fast-paced psychological suspense thriller with unforgettable characters and heart-pounding suspense, THE PERFECT WIFE is book #1 in a riveting new series that will leave you turning pages late into the night.

    A Shot at Freedom and Shadows of the Past
     
    Carl wasn't one for chances, but this mission was supposed to be his lifeline. A simple entry, unseen—except nothing is simple in a city built on deceit. Knocking on a door guarded by barking shadows, Carl clutches at an elusive freedom, a card dealt from the edge of the abyss.
     
    Inside, Carl is thrust into a game far deadlier than Solitaire ever promised. The room swells with whispers of betrayal, each figure a ghost from a past he can’t place. Guns flash like lightning in a storm of moral ambiguity. As bullets fly and identities unravel, Carl stares down destiny’s barrel, wondering just who he’ll become on the other side. In a den of secrets, only one question remains: who walks away when the smoke clears?

    In the sun-drenched island of Crete, an English writer's hospital stay takes an unexpected turn. A mysterious roommate, their conversations a captivating blend of art, archaeology, reincarnation, and the rigid structures of the English class system, vanishes without a trace. Or so it seems. Upon returning home, the writer uncovers a journal and a worn tarot deck tucked away in his luggage: undeniable proof of his enigmatic encounter. Penned in 1823 by a Paduan named Giovanni Battista Belzoni, the journal reveals a fascinating life. A strongman who captivated British music hall crowds as 'The Patagonian Samson,' Belzoni also made his mark as a daring procurer of Egyptian artifacts for the British Museum. But within the journal's pages lies a chilling account – a terrifying confrontation with Satan himself within the depths of the Great Pyramid of Cheops.

    In the seemingly peaceful village of St. Mary Mead, everyone knows everyone—and everyone is watching. When Colonel Protheroe is found murdered in the vicar’s study, the village’s orderly routines fracture, revealing long-simmering resentments and carefully hidden truths. 
     
    Told through the wry, fallible voice of the vicar and sharpened by the unobtrusive brilliance of Miss Jane Marple, the investigation unfolds as a study in human nature as much as a puzzle of clues. Appearances deceive, motives multiply, and justice arrives from the least expected direction.
