    I took some hard hits, but now it's time to strike back. 
     
     
     
    Marco Tesoro wanted a fight, and a fight is what he's gonna get. The guy just doesn't know when to stop. First he sent hitmen after me. Now he blew up my mother f-ing house. No one gets to pull that kind of shit and live—a fact he'll be finding out soon enough. 
     
     
     
    In the aftermath of his attacks, we're struggling to recover, dealing with the FBI, and adjusting to having Cameron back in my life. But there's no better time to remind the world who Two Tricks really is. At the top of my hit list are the Mad Dogs, a rival MC crew. They're the movers and dealers for Marco's drugs business. Let's see how he feels when I cut off his arms and then realizes I'm just barely getting started. 
     
     
     
    My men are behind me one-hundred percent, even as they work through their own issues—including the new man no one saw coming. None of that will stop them from riding into war with me though, because it will take all of us to topple this crime lord's empire, one piece at a time.

    As clouds gather over the Great Smoky Mountains, an absent groom, a stolen historical document, and a book club coming apart at the seams stir up a different sort of storm in this engaging mystery. How far will one book lover go to keep a secret? 
     
    As the townsfolk of Miracle Springs, North Carolina, know all too well, water can be healing—or devastating. With a big storm coming, residents are stocking up on essentials. Hoping to beat the storm, Nora is sitting in the Unitarian Church with her fellow wedding guests, all of whom belong to Sheldon's Blind Date Book Club. As rain hammers the stained-glass windows, the bride, Jess, waits in the back of the church—but where is the groom? When a branch crashes through a stained-glass window, Jess finally tells the guests to go home. 
     
    With the help of her friend Sheldon, Nora escorts Jess to the Lodge. It's become clear that Jess's fiancé Ravi is missing. But there's no searching for him now, as the Miracle River has flooded and they're stuck. By morning, they awaken to widespread devastation and a call from Sheriff McCabe. A body has been pulled out of the river, dressed in a tux. 
     
    On top of this tragic turn of events, Jess returns home to find her house has been spared from the raging water, but ransacked, with an extremely valuable folio from an illuminated manuscript now missing. As Miracle Books becomes the community hub for information, shelter, and hope, Nora and the Secret, Book, and Scone Society put their heads together to solve the murder and the theft. 
     
    But then a second body is pulled from the river . . .

    ‘Brilliant . . . entertaining.’ ANN CLEEVES 
     
    Summer can be murder out on the sun-scorched Yorkshire Fells. 
     
    When the body of eighteen-year-old Tyler Prasad is found up on lonely Skye Moss, Detectives Leo Donovan and Shan Young are called in to investigate. 
     
    Tyler lies dead in a bone-dry ditch. His handsome face shattered in a brutal attack that leaves Donovan and Young baffled. 
     
    They dig into Tyler’s deepest secrets, following a twisty trail that leads straight to Patefield Grange, a luxury country-house retreat across the moors. 
     
    The well-heeled guests — gathered for a controversial grouse hunt in the sweltering summer heat — seem respectable on the surface. 
     
    But, beneath the façade, dark secrets smoulder. It’s only a question of which was worth killing for. 
     
    As temperatures soar, so does the pressure for Donovan and Shan to crack this impossible case. 
     
    Before tensions at the Grange ignite, and the body count rises again . . . 
     
    Discover a gripping, emotionally charged detective, set against the brooding beauty of the Yorkshire Fells. Perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, Angela Marsons, J.R. Ellis, Val McDermid and Joy Ellis.

    THE DETECTIVES 
    Detective Leo Donovan is a veteran of the Yorkshire force. A true empath, he’s happily married, but prone to low moods and bouts of arthritis. Compassion motivates him, and a need to see justice done in a flawed world that is seldom fair. Leo’s wayward son drives him to distraction, but working with his partner Shan is a breath of fresh air. 
     
    Detective Shan Young is a rising star of Leo’s team. She lands her first case as detective while pregnant. Not that she’s fazed by it. A salt-of-the-earth Yorkshire lass with Chinese heritage, she often feels caught between two cultures — something which makes her appreciate Leo all the more, as a mentor and a friend. 
     
    THE SETTING 
    Welcome to the Yorkshire Dales, an untamed landscape of fells and valleys, waterfalls and ruined barns, deep, dark caves and windswept limestone pavements. Farming and mining have shaped these remote hills over the centuries. But what secrets lie buried beneath the spectacularly beautiful surface?
