  You'd better not laugh... you'd better not die. 
   
  Father Christmas, otherwise known as good ol' Santa Claus is dead, murdered in the street, poisoned with a fatal cocktail laced with mistletoe for that 'Christmas touch'. 
   
  But he wasn't the first, and he won't be the last - because across London, people in Father Christmas hats are being poisoned. Homeless Santas, shopping store grotto Santas, it doesn't matter, as the killer seems to be hunting anyone wearing the hat. 
   
  With one of his own team now a witness in a diplomatic murder and taken off the Last Chance Saloon, DI Declan Walsh is an officer down and on the back foot, as he travels a world of red-nosed reindeers and snowy scenes, hunting a grinch that doesn't just have a hatred of anyone who plays the jolly, red-clothed figure, but instead has a mysterious, unknown higher purpose, one that leads back to Charles Dickens and A Christmas Carol... 
   
  Can Declan and his team find and stop the killer before Christmas, or will he be stuck on the naughty list forever?

  From the moment she first met him, Callie knew that Simon Montague was a dead man walking. 
   
   
   
  From rock-climbing to wing-suiting, the infuriatingly charismatic tech CEO lives every moment of his life like it might be his last—and given his packed schedule of adrenaline-fueled adventures, Callie calculated that statistically, one would be soon enough. 
   
   
   
  In order to secure funding for her groundbreaking work in astrophysics, Callie must work with Simon—and as much as she tries to resist it, the shy and play-it-safe scientist soon finds herself warming to his outgoing personality and thirst for life—the kind she had long since buried away. 
   
   
   
  But when the promise of a kiss is interrupted by Callie witnessing Simon literally flicker from existence, even her logical, rational mind struggles to find a scientific explanation. She learns that a supernatural phenomenon is threatening to tear Simon from reality itself—and only by facing her own dark and traumatic past can Callie learn what she needs to save the life of the man she's reluctantly developed feelings for.

  1814, London: Foreign diplomats are descending on London in advance of the Congress of Vienna meetings to formulate a new peace plan for Europe following Napoleon's downfall. Mary and Jane's father, political philosopher William Godwin, is hosting a gathering with an advance party of Russian royal staff. The Russians are enthusiastic followers of Mary's late mother, philosopher and women's rights advocate Mary Wollstonecraft, which leads to a lively dinner discussion. 
   
   
   
  Following their visit, Jane overhears her father reassuring his pushiest creditor that the Russians have pledged diamonds to support his publishing venture, relieving his financial burden. But when Godwin is told the man who promised the diamonds was pulled from the River Thames, his financial problems are further complicated by the suspicion that the family may have been involved in the murder. 
   
   
   
  Stepsisters Mary and Jane resolve to find the real killer to clear the family name. Coming to their aid is Godwin's disciple, poet Percy Shelley, who seems increasingly devoted to Mary, despite the fact that he is married. And a young woman Jane befriends turns out to be the mistress of the celebrated poet Lord Byron. As both sisters find themselves dangerously captivated by the poets, their proximity to the truth of the Russian's murder puts them in far greater peril . . .
