Beschreibung

In the third instalment of the K-Twelve Legacy Series, a new political landscape has emerged from the dust left by the Great War. However, old wounds still served to fuel hatred and a new, more dangerous foe has arisen from the ashes - The Nazis.
New organisations are formed to combat this new threat but the old guard, in the form of the Office of Special Projects, are still there. Colonel John Forrester is at a crossroads, his most trusted operative, Jonathan Fallon, has retired, leaving the K-12 post vacant. Many have come forward and many have fallen.
It is March 1942. Deep in occupied France, an agent for the Special Operations Executive is on the run for his life. He has vital information about the goings on at a nearby chateau and must inform his superiors back in Britain. He manages to get his hands on a radio set and begins to transmit, but is killed before he could finish.
What has startled this agent so much to make him break his cover and give his life to pass this information on? John Forrester and the OSP are tasked with finding the answer, but who can he assign to the mission? A new breed of man steps forward, somehow different but also the same. His name... FALLON

Welcome to Pembroke Cove, where witches and murders are multiplying...
Bookstore owner and witch, Lily Michaels, is prepared for takeoff. She’s on cloud nine after finally obtaining her permit for broom-flying lessons. But her excitement comes crashing down when she stumbles over another dead body. All she wanted to do was discuss flower arrangements for her upcoming wedding—however, somebody had other plans for the unfortunate florist.
At the crime scene, Detective Gage Erikson, a.k.a. Detective Cutie, discovers a menacing message on the floor of the flower shop. Its target: Lily—he’s sure of that. Though he appreciates Lily’s extraordinary abilities, his puzzle-loving fiancée has a unique talent for attracting trouble. This time, he’s determined to keep her out of the investigation. Is this message meant to throw him off the scent of the killer?
Keeping Lily out of a murder investigation is like telling the sun not to rise. It’s not like this will be the first time she bends—okay, breaks—the rules. Suspicions and threats are sprouting like mushrooms in a dank shack. Flying high can lead to falling far—and this time, her life’s not the only one on the line. Can Lily follow the clues and solve the puzzle of the florist’s death before her dreams of a happily ever after with Gage end up as dead as last year’s roses?

Bloody Lessons - A Victorian San...

M. Louisa Locke

In Bloody Lessons, the third book in the USA Today bestselling Victorian San Francisco mystery series, it's the winter of 1880, and the public school teachers of San Francisco are under attack: their salaries slashed and their competency and morals questioned in a series of poison pen letters.  
Annie Fuller, the reluctant clairvoyant, has been called in to investigate by Nate Dawson, her lawyer beau, and the case becomes personal when they discover that Nate's sister Laura may be one of the teachers being targeted. 
In this historical mystery, readers will find the same blend of a cozy mystery and romantic suspense that they found in Locke’s Maids of Misfortune and Uneasy Spirits. However, if new to this series, they will still enjoy spending time with the lively residents of Annie Fuller's O’Farrell Street boardinghouse and visiting San Francisco when Golden Gate Park was filled with horse-drawn carriages, politics were controlled by saloon-keepers, and kisses were stolen under gaslight.  
Bloody Lessons is followed by Deadly Proof, Pilfered Promises, and Scholarly Pursuits and Locke’s shorter works, found in Victorian San Francisco Stories and Victorian San Francisco Novellas, feature minor characters from the series.
