  Welcome back to Hope Street Church, where friendships are formed, fresh starts are encouraged, and mysteries are solved . . .  
   
   
   
  The Hope Street Community Theater is staging It's a Wonderful Life as a fundraiser, and Cooper and the Bible study group are all taking part. They've also managed to land the help of a famous Broadway director who's trying to clean up his image after a scandal, and he travels to Richmond along with his star actress and staff. But the director's entourage epitomize the worst of theater personalities, with petty grievances and jealousies stirring up more drama off the stage than on. And when the assistant director is found murdered in her hotel suite, the list of possible suspects is longer than a red carpet. 
   
   
   
  Unwilling to stand by with a murderer in their midst, Cooper and her friends get to work ferreting out clues and surveilling the staff, including a dangerously inept set technician as well as the director's current and former love interests. Despite inexplicable and terrifying stage "accidents" threatening to derail their investigation and the play, the intrepid amateur sleuths know the show must go on. Their only prayer is to set a trap and successfully catch a killer before it's curtains for Cooper . . .

  Insurance investigator Charlie Novak doesn't probe murders. He commits them. His victims? The insured wives of his partner. It’s all part of their ongoing black widower scheme, with Charlie staging fatal accidents nobody looks at twice. But this latest victim was no accident. Someone else murdered her, and now homicide cops are crawling all over it.

Then he falls under the spell of the victim's girlfriend, an ex-reporter with dark secrets of her own. Disfigured by a childhood fire, Charlie has never known love. So he’s in way over his head while this femme fatale drives the investigation in dangerous directions. Blinkered by unaccustomed yearning, he can’t see through her web of deceit—or escape it.

  Thain: One minute, I'm solving cases in my small town of Mystic Harbor, and the next, I'm face-to-face with her. Ellie Landish. Witch. Former fiancée. And the biggest "what if" of my life. I still don't understand why she broke my heart three years ago, but now she's back, tangled in a case that reeks of magic and trouble. I should keep it professional, solve her problem, and walk away. But seeing her again stirs up everything I thought I'd buried. And worse? Every time I look at her, I want what we had back. 
   
   
   
  Ellie: Going to Thain was my last resort, and yet here I am, hiring the ogre who shattered my trust. My greenhouse is in ruins, and my rare, enchanted plants—my livelihood—are dying. If I can't figure out who's behind this, I'll lose everything. But working with Thain complicates things. I thought I'd buried my feelings, those stolen moments we once shared. My heart already took one beating from him, and I'm not risking it again. This will be strictly business. But every smirk, every stolen glance makes me question what happened back then and where we might go now. Solving the case is one thing. Surviving Thain? That's the real challenge.

  Hong Kong Rocks

  Nick Powell, arriving in Hong Kong with his soon-to-be-ex-wife Lennox, finds himself drawn into the political machinations affecting the city as the Occupy movement of 2014 takes root. 
  A fatal accident exposes the factions vying for control of the SAR and gives Nick the second chance desired by many Hong Kong expats. Will he make the most of the opportunity, or find himself on the wrong side of history? 
  Shifting between a variety of unique voices, HONG KONG ROCKS (a Hong Kong Proverse Prize finalist) is part thriller, part creative exploration of the challenges facing a special administrative region punching above its weight. 
  Though rooted in experience and influenced by real-life events, this novel represents an alternative version of Hong Kong’s recent history and takes regular liberties within this parallel world for the benefit of satire. The book was completed after the Occupy protests of 2014 but before the escalation of protests in the territory beginning June 2019, the action taking place in a notional 2018. —Peter Humphreys, Author.
