  Marcus Sinclair is a history teacher whose life is stuck in neutral when he inherits a papyrus scroll from his antiquarian uncle. The mysterious scroll might contain a lost masterpiece from ancient Rome or perhaps an ancient recipe for personal tranquility, but it’s unreadable unless Marcus can figure out a way to unroll the scroll without destroying it. His quest takes him to Naples, where he befriends a Google software engineer days before the man is found dead. Marcus is interviewed by an investigative journalist, Kristi Grainger, and they find themselves on parallel paths leading to a Neapolitan trafficker in antiquities, a tech mogul obsessed with the distant past, and a clutch of academics searching for the lost library of Herculaneum. In a seaside city that is by turns lush and lethal, Marcus must confront the unraveling of more than a scroll.

  When a hated instructor at England’s last ladies’ finishing school is found murdered, two things are missing—the dazzling London blue ring she always wore and the very finger it adorned.

Her students hated her, the headmistress wanted her gone, and one of her colleagues poured hot tea on her lap during a faculty row. But this isn’t death by Darjeeling—the murder weapon is a powerful magnet. And before this case is closed, London’s high society will never be the same.

  The only choice is surrender. 
   
   
   
  In my world, magic and danger go hand-in-hand. It has from my earliest memory. Magic was currency, and if you have it, you have power. I was shaped by some of the most influential Druids into a lethal weapon. Their weapon. 
   
   
   
  Until the night they betray me—and I wind up in the hands of my enemy. 
   
   
   
  He's nothing but a job for me. To him, I'm the key to finding his father. Too bad I know nothing. But right now, he's the only thing keeping me alive, so I'll do whatever it takes. Yet, if we're going to survive, it means doing it together. 
   
   
   
  I've never allowed myself to care, to feel. To hope. He shows me a world that was always just out of reach, one I was never meant to be a part of—and a love that burns bright enough to scorch the earth. 
   
   
   
  Together, we will bring an empire to its knees. 
   
   
   
  Contains mature themes.

  The Wildbird family has dedicated themselves to wildlife protection for generations. This passion turns mission when a politically potent hunter slays two family members. These brutal murders demand revenge. Distinctive retaliation, guided by family elders, generates a new religion. An illicit enterprise linking Yellowstone to Glacier National Park becomes their single-minded creed in honor of the slain.  
  This distinctive reprisal bolsters the Wildbird’s quest to build their illicit wildlife corridor, unwittingly subsidized by Montana state taxpayers. As a diversion from the largest land grab in modern history, Wildbird’s vigilante riders attack and expose unlawful hunters. Stolen in the dead of night, vehicles, weaponry, and clothing disappear. Media news outlets cover the raids humiliating the shameless predators. Most notable, and being whisked away by a National Guard helicopter, is the naked Secretary of the United States and Governor of Montana. Privileged, these two men are hunting out of season. 
  Embarrassed, POTUS sends the Department of Interior’s best wildlife undercover agent to investigate. Sam the Seeker must determine what’s behind the raid after unearthing a string of elusive clues.
