Synopsis

Finalist 2021 Killer Nashville Claymore Award for 'Best Historical'. This fascinating, well researched historical novel, ‘The Genizah Codex', Book 2 of the ‘Academy of Sisters’ series, is a detective story spanning three timeframes. They are linked by one common factor - an ancient document which may hold keys to solving the crimes. Modern-day PhD student Catherine Simpson travels to Jerusalem to conduct research for her thesis. In the crypt of a Nestorian monastery she stumbles upon a second century Aramaic codex. Shiphrah, a member of the Academy of Sisters in second century Alexandria, leads the translation of their founder Sophia’s memoirs into Greek. Ex-Templar Hughes seeks to find who betrayed his father to Philippe le Bel’s Inquisition. He purchases a set of Aramaic scrolls. The Genizah Codex reveals its secrets and makes everyone rich and famous.

    Two workplace rivals. One festive competition. And a romance that upends it all. 
     
    Every December two things are guaranteed for graphic designer Mackenzie Graham--Christmas celebrations and the annual promotion at her workplace. Those two things are by no means mutually exclusive. In fact, the better an employee is at harnessing the Christmas spirit, the more likely they'll win the new job. With her social anxiety, Mackenzie never thought she'd be a contender in her company's holiday competition, so how exactly has she found herself dueling her workplace crush with wrapping paper tubes and using tinsel as her weapon of choice for a much-needed raise? 
     
    Jeremy Fletcher's life is meticulously planned out, including how to win this year's promotion at work. Not only will the new position fulfill some of his career goals, but as a single guardian to his twin niece and nephew, he needs the salary increase to support his family. Jeremy has barely noticed Mackenzie Graham around the office, but now that she's his rival, he can't stop thinking about her. Her quirkiness intrigues him, and he's afraid that if he can't get his head on straight, the promotion isn't the only thing he'll end up losing to Mackenzie.
