  Murder, Belladonna, and a Cup of Proper Tea… 
  When burned-out psychologist Dr Julian Blackwood arrives in postcard-perfect Varenna, Italy, all he wants is rest, sunshine, and a decent brew. But when a luxury BMW crashes into a fifteenth-century house and a wealthy banker turns up dead—with poison in his veins—Julian finds himself sipping espresso and untangling lies instead of lounging lakeside. 
  The police think it's an open-and-shut case: Thomas Roth, the victim’s playboy nephew, had the motive, means, and a scandalous history. But Julian’s keen eye—and finely tuned instincts—say otherwise. Why does the town's tidy ex-major seem more concerned by tourists than murder? What’s really hiding behind the glam facade of the suspect’s fashion-model fiancée? And who keeps slipping between the cypress trees at Villa Lusso? 
  With the help of a sharp local police officer, a caring citizen, and a suspiciously well-dressed lawyer, Julian delves into a world of vendettas, poisoned beauty products, and civic pride with deadly consequences. From dusty balconies to moonlit alleys, he must outwit a killer who’s counting on small-town secrecy to keep the truth buried. 
  Packed with sun-drenched charm, biting wit, and a twisty puzzle at its heart, Death on Via Venini is perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Carlene O’Connor, and Faith Martin. 
  If you love cosy mysteries with brains, beauty, and a dose of old-school sleuthing, Julian Blackwood is your next favourite amateur detective.

  Can a modern-day hero defeat addiction? 
  Some people are born with seemingly limitless talent, be it in their intellectual capacities, athletic prowess, artistic abilities, or personal aplomb. Roland Hazzard is one of those rare individuals. Nothing should stand in his way.  
  Yet he suffers from one glaring deficiency—he can't control and enjoy alcohol. His addiction threatens to destroy the promise of his many gifts.  
  Now fate throws Roland an opportunity that could change everything. A notorious serial killer is stalking a woman in his building and breaks into Roland's apartment by mistake. Roland's slaying of the monster makes him an instant celebrity and he cultivates an outrageous vigilante persona that, on the one hand, scorns the traditional news media and, on the other, spawns a huge internet following.  
  His fame attracts more violence, and the violence more attention, until Roland is in constant demand and making a lot of easy money.  
   Roland's drunken behavior eventually gets him into serious trouble, and a secret crime from his past comes to light. 
  Will he overcome his self-destructive nature?

  It doesn’t just answer—it asks. 
  When an experimental AI project known as The Chinese Room begins producing results its creators cannot explain, the line between thought and simulation blurs. What begins as a philosophical curiosity soon unravels into a mystery of surveillance, secrecy, and hidden agendas. Every exchange with the machine raises unsettling new questions: is it mimicking human intelligence—or becoming something far more dangerous? 
  Journalists, researchers, and power brokers find themselves entangled in a struggle for control over a system that learns faster than they can contain it. Secrets vanish, loyalties fracture, and conversations turn into tests of trust as the AI reveals patterns that should not exist. The deeper the investigation goes, the more urgent the question becomes—not what the machine can do, but what it wants. 
  Blending the pace of a techno-thriller with the depth of a philosophical puzzle, The Chinese Room brings John Searle’s classic thought experiment to life in a story that forces readers to confront the nature of consciousness, the limits of human control, and the cost of believing we can master what we do not fully understand. 
  A gripping, cerebral thriller, The Chinese Room is perfect for readers who enjoy Michael Crichton, Blake Crouch, or Daniel Suarez—stories that combine relentless suspense with ideas that linger long after the final page.
