  Who is leaking secrets to the enemy . . . ? 
   
   
   
  1941 
   
   
   
  Flying Officer Angus Mackennelly is flying over Northern France when his tank is holed and he's forced to crash-land. Luckily, he is picked up by the French Resistance before the enemy can get to him and, after a tense few days moving between safe houses, he escapes back to Blighty. 
   
   
   
  Reunited with his squadron, Angus expects to return to flying duties. However, Squadron Leader Bentley informs him that he's not going to be flying sorties. He is singled out to lead a top-secret mission. The special mission is to conduct a low flying night operation with six blacked out Spitfires to strafe a convoy carrying a top general from the German High Command and assassinate him. 
   
   
   
  Training quickly commences but a spate of unexpected enemy fighter attacks leads the team to suspect that a spy is trying to leak details of the upcoming mission to the Germans. 
   
   
   
  Angus is put on the case to squirrel out the informer and protect the rest of the men from the enemy within. 
   
   
   
  Will Angus succeed in his secret mission? Can he identify the mole? Or will the lives of all the men in Maverick Squadron be compromised . . . ?

  The New York Times–bestselling author of Devil's Bargain brings back two kick-ass female private investigators in a case of premonitions and peril. 
   
   
    
  While Jazz Callender is recuperating from nearly losing her life during their first case for the mysterious Cross Society, Lucia Garza hires a new investigator to their firm: none other than Ben McCarthy. The former Kansas City cop has finally been exonerated of murder, and just in time. Jazz and Lucia have received a new red letter. 
   
   
    
  But instead of instructions for a high-priority case, this missive contains nothing but a warning: "One of you has made a mistake." And it's on letterhead from the Cross Society's major adversary in a psychic war. With Ben filling them in on his past secretive dealings with the organization, Jazz and Lucia start to believe they may be in bed with the enemy, one that they've underestimated at their own peril . . .
