Breakfall - A Novel

Zhanna Slor

One wrong decision. One death. One missing person. One clear suspect.

Mina Banksy, a thirty-two-year-old author and mother of a rambunctious three-year-old, is still reeling from a recent divorce and what she calls an "early midlife crisis" when two Chicago detectives show up at her door looking for her friend, Dylan. Or, more accurately, the van that she allowed him to register in her name, because Dylan—a friend from her former Jiu Jitsu gym—is a recently recovered addict and convicted felon. According to the cops, Dylan is not so reformed after all: the van has been under suspicion for criminal activities, and she may be in trouble for it.

Flustered by the stressful meeting, Mina calls Matthew, a cop who she'd had an affair with six months earlier, causing a scandal at their close-knit gym as well as instigating her divorce and his relocation to Arizona. Matthew tells her to cut all ties with Dylan and report the van missing. Instead, Mina tries to track down Dylan at the rehab where he lives. She finds him dead, and the nature of his injuries make it appear the murderer is someone well-versed in Jiu Jitsu. When Mina's ex-husband also turns up missing, and Matthew returns to Chicago, every member of the gym—current and past—becomes a suspect, and somehow all roads lead back to Mina Banksy.

Part unlikely romance and part murder mystery, set inside the eclectic subculture of martial arts, BREAKFALL is an exploration of sexual desire, motherhood, and marriage in modern times.

Breaking and Entering 101

Honor Raconteur

Since Jamie and Henri agreed to be Kingsmen consultants, they’d not had much call to actually consult. Which is a fortuitous thing, as Henri is up to his neck in labwork and interviews for a new Magical Examiner due to Sanderson’s departing. He is hardly in any position to add more tasks onto his shoulders. 
Which, naturally, means two disasters strike at once. 
In a brilliant coup, a group of thieves have struck the railroad and stolen a breathtaking three hundred thousand pounds in gold. No one has any idea how, who, or where the ingots have gotten to. The Kingsmen on the case are baffled, as this is hardly their normal purview. They naturally reach out to their Kingsmen consultants, which mean Jamie and Henri are now on the week-old case. 
To spice things up further, someone is routinely sneaking through the palace wards and lurking about the grounds, and no one has any idea how the breach is occurring. Seaton’s beside himself trying to figure it out and Henri has been drawn in to assist him. 
As Jamie would say: When it rains, it pours.
