Sinopse

The Reprisal is the sixth volume in the Ian Caxton Thriller series. When Ian spots an opportunity to attain revenge on his nemesis Jonathan Northgate, he has no idea he'll be antagonising the police and become entangled with a dangerous Mafia-like organisation. Out of his depth and frustrated, Ian eventually realises his actions may now have dire consequences for both family and friends… but is his desperate response too late? In Antigua, Oscar is invited by a client to view an unusual painting. However, after initially thinking the picture is worthless he is amazed to discover other pictures painted by the same abstract artist have each sold for over twenty million dollars! His big challenge is to convince the artist's foundation, in New York, that his client's picture is authentic and therefore potentially worth a similarly staggering fortune. Another dramatic page-turning tale of adventure, conspiracy and determination, where lives are at risk.

Phoebe attempts to use her powers as a medium to consult with the newly departed for answers. But the poor soul doesn't even understand he's dead, let alone know how he met his demise.

    Kat Normand, a seasoned portfolio manager of community associations, never expected to trade her busy career for the mysterious lakeside town of Blackwater Lake. But when the homeowners association offers her a six-figure salary, a cozy home, and the role of general manager, it feels too good to pass up—even if the HOA barely seems to exist online. Soon, Kat discovers her predecessor vanished without a trace, and the residents are harboring secrets they won’t easily share. With the help of her quirky assistant Babs and Jet, her loyal English Springer Spaniel (who may be more than he seems), Kat sets out to unravel the unsettling mysteries hiding beneath the town’s polished surface—before she disappears, too.

    In the gritty human city of Spur Central, trouble is brewing. It always is. 
    The entire cosmos is about to ratchet its Great Gears and pit all sentient animals against each other in a long awaited war to see who gets to ascend to the next realm. None of that matters to Dick hu'Mar, a private investigator that's too good for his own good. When he and his sour faced partner, an ugly stinking cat, get hired by two dames in dire need of a mystery solved, they find themselves plunged into the politics and danger of this pre-steampunk world where highly leathered brawn beats against brains every day. 
    With little time to work--love, lives, and money, most especially money are on short supply, hu'Mar must solve the case and if he can help it, avoid getting killed himself. 
    This Novel is a cross between the classic Noir style of hard-boiled detective, mixed with high fantasy, in a sword and sorcery sort of way, with the hints of a steampunk era nearly upon them. This is a clean read, but one that still has a comedic and sometimes dark humor.

    It seemed like the perfect crime… that should have been his first warning. 
      
    Labor Day Weekend, an empty office building down in sleepy Point Loma: basically a sitting-duck target for any second-story man worth a nickel. Especially one with a lifetime of skills to draw upon—not to mention all the magic passcodes tucked comfortably away in his back pocket. 
    Nothing could go wrong, or that was how it seemed… but in the end, he couldn't honestly blame anyone but himself for not seeing it coming.  
    From A. J. Payler, author of The Killing Song, Bank Error in Your Favor, and Terror Next Door comes Default Admin Credentials, a story of struggle against overwhelming odds and unstoppable fear. 
    Also featuring bonus story Dictated, Never Read (as seen in Twenty-two Twenty-eight)!

    Peach was the unwanted daughter—born after her twin brother didn't survive. Her family made sure she knew it. Every day. Every choice.
    
    When her sister marries the man Peach loved, no one expects her to show up. But when she doesn't, they're not worried. They're angry. Her mother curses her. Her brother calls her selfish. Her father disowns her.
    
    They don't know that Peach is already dead.
    
    Murdered the night before the wedding. Her body buried where no one would look.
    
    Now, as a ghost bound to the family that never wanted her, Peach watches them eat, argue, and move on. Until grief and guilt begin to tear them apart from the inside.
    
    A haunting, heartbreaking story about the daughter no one loved—and what happens when it's too late to try.
