  A woman on the run. A family with secrets. A past that refuses to let go. 
  Memphis Monroe has spent ten years surviving her marriage. 
  Trapped with a violent husband in 1970s Nashville, she’s learned to stay quiet, keep the peace, and endure—for the sake of her young son. But when her husband’s rage crosses a line she can’t ignore, Memphis is forced to make an impossible choice: 
  Stay and risk losing everything… or run and risk it all. 
  With nothing but her son and a stolen moment of courage, Memphis flees in her husband’s prized Mustang—heading for Los Angeles and a chance at a life she’s never been allowed to imagine. 
  But freedom isn’t simple. 
  As Memphis begins to find her voice—and even the possibility of love—her past refuses to stay buried. The secrets that shaped her childhood begin to surface, and the two people she fears most are closing in. 
  Because her husband isn’t done with her. 
  And neither is the truth. 
  Memphis is a gripping domestic thriller about survival, generational trauma, and the cost of breaking free—set against the backdrop of 1970s America and the fight for control over one’s own life. 
  Memphis is the first book in a gripping crime family trilogy series exploring the dark legacy of the Freedman family, with future installments diving deeper into Johnny and Doris’s stories.

  Pressed into a union of convenience, Lady Abigail Worthing knew better than to expect love. Her marriage to an absent lord does at least provide some comforts, including a box at the Drury Lane theater. Abigail has always found respite at the theater, away from the ton's judgmental stares and the risks of her own secret work to help the cause of abolition—and her fears that someone from her past wants her permanently silenced. But one evening everything collides, and the performance takes an unwelcome turn . . . 
   
   
   
  Onstage, a woman emits a scream of genuine terror. A man has been found dead in the prop room, stabbed through the heart. Abigail's neighbor, Stapleton Henderson, is also in attendance, and the two rush backstage. The magistrate, keen to avoid bringing more attention to the case, asks Abigail not to investigate. But she cannot resist, especially when Henderson offers his assistance. 
   
   
   
  Abigail discovers a tangled drama that rivals anything brought to the stage, involving gambling debts, a beautiful actress with a parade of suitors, and the very future of the Drury Lane theater. For Abigail the case is complicated further, for one suspect is a leading advocate for the cause dearest to her heart—the abolition of slavery. Uncovering the truth always comes at a price. But this time, it may be far higher than she wishes to pay.

  Humiliated by a serial rapist in court, South Lake Tahoe’s sheriff and district attorney turn to Dan Reno for justice. 
  Dealing with his fiancée’s mental breakdown, Reno welcomes the distraction, but he knows the case makes no sense. Short of killing the criminal, what can he do? 
  Regardless, Reno begins investigating. As he peels back the layers, he learns the rapist has a genius IQ and is the brother of a Silicon Valley billionaire. Traveling to San Jose, Reno hooks up with his partner, Cody Gibbons, who has little patience or mercy for sexual predators. But the more they uncover about the rapist and his family, the deeper they descend into a grim rabbit hole with no clean exit. 
  Desperate for an angle, Reno and Gibbons finally find the necessary leverage, and a bloody reckoning becomes inevitable. But the resolution is one Reno never considered, and it’s only then that he learns how both criminal behavior and justice can be their own form of insanity.

  At the heart of San Marino's most vibrant music festival, the unthinkable happens: DJ Ecciti, the star of the show, collapses on stage, turning a night of celebration into one of chaos and mystery. 
  Luigi Ferro is engaged by the festival's organizer, amidst the frustration with the local gendarmerie's slow progress, to untangle a web of deceit and danger. 
  As Ferro delves into the glittering world of music and fame, he encounters a trio of suspects—a rival DJ, a spurned lover, and a shady promoter—each harboring motives as complex as the tunes that electrify the festival air. But as seductive distractions and misleading clues cloud his path, Ferro must navigate through a maze of hidden relationships and secret deals that could be the key to solving the case. 
  Set against the backdrop of San Marino's scenic beauty, "The Rhythm of Death" is a story where the melody of mystery deepens, danger dances in the shadows, and for Luigi Ferro, every beat could be a clue leading to the shocking revelation.

  "David Copperfield" or "The Personal History, Adventures, Experience and Observation of David Copperfield the Younger of Blunderstone Rookery" was first published in 1850. Like all except five of his works, it originally appeared in serial form. Many elements within the novel follow events in Dickens' own life, and it is probably the most autobiographical of all of his novels. It is also Dickens' "favorite child." (Summary adapted from Wikipedia)
