NEW "STAND ALONE" MYSTERY

Harrison Steele’s dream of a work-free sailing sabbatical from his law firm is thwarted when a young bank auditor is killed a few days before he departs for the Caribbean. He becomes entangled in the investigation when no motive is uncovered for the young woman's murder.

His sailing adventure takes an unexpected turn when he helps a teenage girl deserted by her father in Saint Lucia. The appearance of a beautiful Italian woman adds to the mystery, one good deed leads to another, and Harrison’s sailing adventure becomes a voyage of international intrigue.

Has Harrison stumbled on an undercover operation or is it something more sinister?

Step into 1897 Victorian London: Unravel Love and Intrigue with The Tabitha & Wolf Historical Mystery Series, where Mystery meets Romance with a splash of Humour.

Tabitha was used to being a social pariah. Could her standing in society get any worse?

Tabitha, the Countess of Pembroke, is newly widowed at only 22 years of age. With no son to inherit the title, it falls to a dashing, distant cousin of her husband's, Jeremy Chesterton, known as Wolf. It quickly becomes apparent that Wolf had consorted with some of London's most dangerous citizens before inheriting the title. Can he leave this world behind, or will shadowy figures from his past follow him into his new aristocratic life in Mayfair? And can Tabitha avoid being caught up in Wolf's dubious activities?

It seems it's well and truly time for Tabitha to leave her gilded cage behind for good!

Jon is the most powerful psychic Reader in the country–and unanchored, which is rather a problem. The bigger problem? Finding an anchor. And Jon doesn’t think his must-have list is too crazy. It’s just rather hard for a man to have:

1) the patience of a saint (for when Jon kills electronics, ’cause that’s a daily thing)
2) the ability to keep up with his schedule (the cases are crazy, not going to lie)
3) the protect instincts of a superhero
4) muscles (this one’s more of a want, honestly)

You can see why Jon’s kinda given up on getting an anchor as that’s a tall order. At least, until Donovan Havili entered the room.

Holy beejeezus, his dream anchor is real?!

“In the gripping Fire and Ice, Jance showcases both Beaumont and Brady….The prolific Jance…is in fine form.”

—Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel

New York Times bestseller J.A. Jance reunites two of her most popular series characters—Cochise County Sheriff Joanna Brady and Seattle detective J.P. Beaumont—in Fire and Ice, as the separate investigations into grisly homicides in two different states shockingly intertwine. As Jance proved in her previous Beau/Brady pairing, Partner in Crime, when these two join forces, fireworks happen. Fire and Ice is not to be missed.

The 1895-96 season promises to be an exceptional one for Amelia Peabody, her dashing Egyptologist husband, Emerson, and their wild and precocious eight-year-old son, Ramses. The much-coveted burial chamber of the Black Pyramid in Dahshoor is theirs for the digging. But there is a great evil in the wind that roils the hot sands sweeping through the bustling streets and marketplaces of Cairo. The brazen moonlight abduction of Ramses—and an expedition subsequently cursed by misfortune and death—have alerted Amelia to the likely presence of her arch nemesis the Master Criminal, notorious looter of the living and the dead. But it is far more than ill-gotten riches that motivates the evil genius this time around. For now the most valuable and elusive prize of all is nearly in his grasp: the meddling lady archaeologist who has sworn to deliver him to justice . . . Amelia Peabody!
