  A chance encounter with a van leads DCI Cartwright into a convoluted case riddled with coincidences. The van is en route for London but the cargo, smuggled from Amsterdam and landed by boat on the River Deben, is not quite what the courier had been expecting. The discovery of a kidnapped and assaulted Dutch student is only the beginning and Cartwright becomes suspicious of the activities of a cut-price enterprise and a dodgy antiques business in Bethnal Green where a syndicate of small-time cockney villains is looking to develop the potential for import and export of stolen jewellery and antiques and an increasing demand for cannabis.

  In this twisting mystery in a New York Times bestselling series, pranks escalate into a deadly scheme that Private Investigator Sharon McCone must unravel—​before they claim her life.

When several luxury estate homes are targeted in a series of so-called pranks, Sharon is hired by a coalition of concerned owners to investigate. But as things escalate—an attempt on Sharon’s life, an explosion at a meth lab, and a shocking murder—Sharon realizes far more is at play than a few misdemeanors gone wrong. The case takes a sudden turn when one of McCone & Ripinsky’s most trusted employees is implicated, and Sharon will have to dig deep to save her agency—and her life.

  A USA Today Bestselling series! 
  Journalist and editor of The Branson Tribune, Kate Saxee, has a lot going on. Her mom is in a war with a neighbor, Kate’s trying to navigate her love life after a memorable Halloween party, and it looks like a serial killer might be on the loose in her small rural community that’s getting bigger by the day. 
  Utah’s population is booming and new houses are being built faster than LDS/Mormon temples. When human remains are found on a piece of Branson Falls property being developed, everyone thinks the bones belong to a lost hiker. But when more bodies are discovered, it quickly becomes clear that this was no accident. 
  Rumors are swirling that the remains could have been victims of a notorious serial killer, and that attracts the attention of a popular true crime podcast, the Murderoonies, who descend on Branson Falls to cover the case and help Kate investigate—whether Kate wants their help or not. And they're not just covering the crime, they're also very interested in Kate's love life. 
  Drake is the legal representative for the real estate developer, and Hawke is assisting law enforcement, which means Kate is working closely with them both. Given what happened at the Halloween party, that's about as awkward as "hussy" Kate in church. 
  Kate's focused on finding out who's responsible for the dead bodies, and she's digging up secrets. Someone wants the information she's uncovering to remain hidden, and they'll do anything to make sure it stays that way...even if it means burying more bodies.

  Sherlock Holmes: The Adventure...

  In 1907, some time after his retirement to the Sussex Downs, Holmes goes for a walk and meets his friend Harold Stackhurst, headmaster of a local preparatory school called "The Gables". Shortly thereafter, Stackhurst's science teacher, Fitzroy McPherson, staggers up from the nearby beach, dressed in only his overcoat and trousers. He collapses at their feet, and dies shortly thereafter, having managed to scream the words "The Lion's Mane". He has long, narrow welts curving around his body; he appears to have been repeatedly whipped with some sort of thin, flexible scourge, until his weak heart gave out with the pain. 
  Ian Murdoch, the morose mathematics teacher at the Gables, arrives on the scene, having just finished teaching an algebra class. Holmes sends him to find the police, then examines the nearby bathing pool, which had been created by unusually high tides after a recent series of gales from the south. Holmes finds McPherson's dry, folded towel, and concludes he had not yet been in the water. There are people far down the beach, and some fishing boats out at sea, but none are close enough to have had anything to do with the tragedy. The police arrive, but a search of the surrounding caves reveals no clues.
