Sinopse

A knock at the door reveals a terrifying secret—and a dangerous decision.
 
Newly appointed as the small-town chief of police, Mark Friessen is starting to find his footing when a mysterious woman shows up on his doorstep, unraveling a chilling tale: she was forced to marry the man who killed her family. Desperate for help, she pulls Mark and social worker Billy Jo McCabe into a tangled web of deceit and danger.
 
As Mark and Billy Jo dig deeper into the woman’s claims, they’re faced with unsettling secrets about her past—and their own relationship is put to the test. What starts as a cry for help turns into a high-stakes case that threatens to expose deep fractures in the town and in their lives. 
 
With a possessive husband, a powerful fixer, and more questions than answers, Mark and Billy Jo quickly realize they’re in over their heads. And as they uncover layer after layer of lies, they may wish this stranger had never knocked on Mark’s door at all.
 
In The Stranger at the Door, bestselling author Lorhainne Eckhart weaves a gripping mystery of trust, betrayal, and the dark consequences of uncovering secrets better left buried.

    Ex-MI5 operative Joe Mason is on a mission to rescue a friend who has been kidnapped. Meanwhile, ancient coins – remnants of a Chinese casino buried for six hundred years – are starting to surface in Japan's clandestine underworld. 
    Mason knows the coins and kidnapping are linked. Someone has finally unearthed the long-buried ancient casino, and its riches – both financial and archaeological – are now up for grabs. But hidden forces are desperate to conceal the discovery and take it for themselves, kidnapping and killing to silence anyone in their path. 
    In a high-stakes battle to reveal the casino to the world, Joe and his team race across the region, from high-rise Hong Kong to Tokyo's bustling markets to the covert gambling rings of Osaka. But they are being hunted by elite forces – and it’s only a matter of time before the target on their back catches up with them. 
    In this perilous quest for the world’s oldest casino, Mason must find the site before his enemies find him. But can he unearth the secrets of the gold in time? 
    In this sequel, Mason's military expertise and espionage skills are put to the test as he navigates the political and technological challenges of the underworld. The suspense of the story keeps readers on the edge of their seats, as Mason's perilous quest for the world’s oldest casino becomes a thrilling race against time.

    A fashion-obsessed sleuth must solve a murder as she starts a new executive career—and try to resist abusing her corporate credit card . . . 
     
     
      
    Just because Haley lacks the right qualifications for her new position as corporate events coordinator doesn't mean she murdered her company's chief of security. Nothing about her fashion sense screams deadly killer, but she'll need to shop around on her own for some guilt-proof clues to prove the police are looking in the wrong bag. Especially since some of the other recent hires at the company also have something to hide . . . 
     
     
     
    Between her many investigations, the new high-pressure job, and her just-moved-in boyfriend, there's almost no time for the most important thing in Haley's life: maxing out her credit card. If she's going to catch a killer, she'll need to be on her toes—heels and all—or she'll be this season's hottest victim . . .
