  It starts out with a body – the stench of a body, to be more precise. Ross may have an idea why the man is dead in his flat, but he’s not telling anyone. 
  London, 2045. The police are struggling to identify the dead man, but despite all the technology at their fingertips the man remains a mystery. That's until an outbreak of a deadly virus provides a crucial link to a touring Singapore e-sports team and a motley collection of small-time cybercriminals. 
  The SimCavalier, aka Cameron Silvera, wants to enjoy her romantic getaway with Ben, but clues to a Paris data theft are coming thick and fast. Her team has its hands full dealing with an escalating torrent of online attacks, and the fallout from a global data breach has hit their clients hard. Cameron starts to connect the dots as underground markets are flooded with stolen files. 
  Everything points to a single cybercrime syndicate controlling a wave of thefts, and the mysterious Yasmin the Admin who calls the shots. Ross thinks he’s found the people involved, but it may be too late. Cameron’s cover is blown and her home is attacked. The syndicate is hunting down the SimCavalier who has thwarted their plans once too often. Can she stop the cybercriminals and their hired thugs before they strike at the heart of her family? 
  "Insidious vision of the day after tomorrow.” 
  "The near future recognisably imagined. Real suspense and tension." 
  “So real, so grounded in the possible, and so well written that it is easy to forget you’re reading about a future that has not happened yet.”

  Taking on the responsibilities that come with being Lady Lyndhurst, Stella is eager to embrace yuletide traditions in the Edwardian English countryside and use her strong social influence for good. Her world becomes so consumed with starting a horse farm charity for the holidays that she barely notices the usual oddities attached to her upper crust lifestyle. At least, not until items vanish from her bedroom and maligned housekeeper, Mrs. Nelson, becomes seriously ill—only to be found dead in the cold on Mistletoe Lane . . . 
   
   
    
  Cheery spirits are dashed following the sudden death, especially once Stella questions whether her own staff knows what—or who—killed the woman. Her suspicions mount when another person dies under strange circumstances during New Forest's annual Point-to-Point Boxing Day race. Then there's the case of Morrington Hall becoming plagued by false identities, secret affairs, and disgruntled employees . . . 
   
   
    
  Now, with two murders unfolding before their eyes in late December, Stella and Lyndy realize they can't fully trust anyone except for themselves while investigating. Because as disturbing answers come into focus, identifying the criminal responsible and surviving into the new year would be the greatest gift of the season . . .
