  Jacob Montfield, regarded by the majority as a homeless eccentric, a nuisance by a few, had pushed a supermarket trolley around the city for years. 
   
   
   
  However, one person regards him as a liability. 
   
   
   
  Eccentric was correct, a nuisance, for sure, mad, plenty thought that, but few knew the truth, that Montfield is a brilliant man, once a research scientist. And even less knew that detailed within a notebook hidden deep in the trolley, there is a new approach to the guidance of weapons and satellites—a radical improvement on the previous and it's worth a lot to some, power to others, accolades to another. 
   
   
   
  And for that, one cold night, he died at the hand of another. 
   
   
   
  Inspector Tremayne and Sergeant Clare Yarwood are on the case, but so are others, and soon they're warned off. Only Tremayne doesn't listen, not when he's got his teeth into the investigation, and his sergeant, equally resolute, won't either. It's not only their careers on the line, but their lives.

  Kinsley never thought she would go home. She left Coventry and didn't look back. But after a divorce, she packed up her stuff and drove toward the only place that she knew would accept her. 
   
   
   
  Life hadn't been easy for Kinsley since she left town. She'd spent her entire adult life rebelling against what she was, and that meant hiding her true self from the world. Kinsley left Coventry on a mission to be ordinary. But you know what they say about the best-laid plans. 
   
   
   
  Coventry isn't your typical town. It's home to the most powerful family of witches in the world. Two ancient witch families united when her parents married, and she was supposed to be their leader. 
   
   
   
  Nobody ever asked Kinsley if that's what she wanted. Funny how the universe worked because there she was rolling into Coventry in her broken-down car. 
   
   
   
  The welcome party was short-lived, because a dead guy turned up. 
   
   
   
  The town's sheriff starts to give Kinsley the side-eye. But, a lot of people wanted the victim dead. There's a murderer on the loose, and Kinsley's got to learn to harness her powers. 
   
   
   
  And, then there's Meri, the black cat familiar. Someone decides to grant him one wish for his service, and it doesn't go as planned.
