  Litany of Sorrows is a story of passion, betrayal, and the devastating cost of complicity.  
   
  It begins when Karl von Richter, a handsome young German with a sinister future, is injured skiing in the Italian Alps. Nursed to health by a beautiful woman, Katrina Amorino, the two fall in love. Unaware that Germany is preparing for war, she naively leaves northern Italy and moves to his home in southern Germany. But days before she arrives, Karl is drafted into the Nazi SS officer training school, where he is radicalized. As Karl descends into the machinery of the Final Solution to build camps and kill Jews, Katrina hears about his horrific deeds, flees for her life, and is haunted by impossible choices and a son she may never see again.  As the war ends, Karl’s last Nazi task is abandoned, and he heads home, but finds his parents dead, and Katrina and their child missing. Karl's conscience begins to reawaken while he searches for Katrina, who is hiding in fear and agonizing over her impetuous decisions, which become her litany of sorrows. Decades later, the consequences of their love — and their separation — ripple outward in ways neither could have foreseen.  
   
  From forbidden love in the Italian Alps to high-stakes international investigations decades later, author Peter J Marzano weaves the Brian O’Sullivan series together with emotional depth, historical intrigue, and relentless suspense. And at the heart of the award-winning series lies a single question: How far will we go to uncover the truth —  to heal from it? Together, these novels form a sweeping narrative about the weight of history, self-inflicted damage by poor choices, and the resilience of the human spirit. From wartime Europe to modern-day investigations, the heart-wrenching Brian O’Sullivan series explores how love, guilt, and legacy shape generations — and how the past never stays buried for long.  b

  A stunning novel of the Tudors from the best-selling author of The Agincourt Bride. 
  Jasper Tudor, son of Queen Catherine and her second husband, Owen Tudor, has grown up far from the intrigue of the royal court. But after he and his brother Edmund are summoned to London, their half-brother, King Henry VI, takes a keen interest in their future. 
  Bestowing Earldoms on them both, Henry also gives them the wardship of the young heiress Margaret Beaufort. Although she is still a child, Jasper becomes devoted to her and is devastated when Henry arranges her betrothal to Edmund. 
  He seeks solace in his estates and in the arms of Jane Hywel, a young Welsh woman who offers him something more meaningful than a dynastic marriage. But passion turns to jeopardy for them both as the Wars of the Roses wreak havoc on the realm. Loyal brother to a fragile king and his domineering queen, Marguerite of Anjou, Jasper must draw on all his guile and courage to preserve their throne − and the Tudor destiny… 
  Jasper's life, a blend of historical events and literary fiction, is punctuated by a top romance that provides a semblance of peace in the midst of the Wars of the Roses. The war, however, poses a constant threat to their love and the stability of the realm. 
  For fans of Carol Mcgrath (The Lost Queen), Alison Weir (Elizabeth of York), Elizabeth Chadwick (The Royal Rebel), Annie Garthwaite (Cecily), and Anne R. Bailey (The Lady Ursula).

  As a former Texas Ranger, Charlie "Catfish Charlie" Tuttle spent the good part of his life catching outlaws. Happily retired in Wolfwater, Texas, he's content just catching fish—namely Bubba, the wily old catfish who lives in the pond near Charlie's shack and keeps slipping off Charlie's hook. He also likes hanging out with his trusty tomcat Hooligan Hank and tossing back bottles of mustang berry wine. Sure, his glory days are behind him. There's no reason for Charlie to even think about coming out of retirement . . .  
   
   
   
  It starts with a jailbreak. Frank Thorson and his gang ride into Wolfwater to bust Frank's brother out of the slammer. First, they slaughter the deputy. Then, the town marshal. Finally, they run off with the marshal's daughter and no one's sure if she's dead or alive. The townsfolk are desperate enough to ask that drunken old coot Catfish Charlie to put down his fishing pole and wine bottles, pick up his Colt Army .44, and go after the bloodthirsty gang. Sure, Catfish Charlie may be a bit rusty after all these years. But when it comes to serving up justice, no one is quicker, faster—or deadlier . . .
