Amidst the garden parties and romantic afternoons of the Edwardian Era, a sinister plot unfolds in the southeast of England...

Rosamund Haskin is thrilled when her younger sister, Georgiana, forms an attachment with Mr. Jasper Layne, a well-bred and intelligent man working for Scotland Yard. She is not so thrilled, however, when she finds herself continually paired off with Jasper's unsociable colleague, James Merrick. Displeased with Merrick's aloof and haughty behavior, Rosamund looks forward to returning to her job at Ashcroft, a wealthy estate not far from London.

But when mysterious threats targeting the children of her employer are received, Rosamund refuses to believe that they are mere pranks. Reluctantly, she calls on the aid of Mr. Merrick, whose skills as a detective she feels she can depend on - even if she does not care for the man himself.

As the threats continue and are followed with acts of violence, will Merrick's wit be enough to keep the halls of Ashcroft safe?

Victoria’s life isn’t as perfect as it seems. But with two homicide detectives on her doorstep, it's about to get a lot worse.

Still reeling from the shocking discovery that her husband is having a passionate affair with his real estate client, Victoria struggles to process the mind-blowing news that Nick’s lover is dead—brutally murdered in cold blood on the very same evening she uncovered the truth.

And now two detectives are on her doorstep, waiting to question both of them. Is she a suspect?

With little hard evidence and no shortage of suspects with "killer motives," Detectives Jack Stark and Lexi Sanchez are under intense pressure to solve the high-profile murder case that rocks the picturesque village of Tarrytown just as the town is gearing up for the area’s annual Halloween festivities and an influx of tourists.

As Victoria sets out to clear herself and find out the truth, she’s faced with two terrifying possibilities—either her husband is a murderer or someone is out to get them.

Conflicted about her marriage and emotionally raw, she sets out to find the truth about what happened that night.

But does she really want to know?

May 1893. Mrs. Henry Case finds her amateur sleuthing skills are tested while searching for clues to mysteries both past and present. Unwilling to take everything she hears at face value, Mattie determinedly works to uncover the truth. Challenged with several hurdles along the way, she discovers that it will require all of her intelligence to find the answers she needs.

She is someone’s darkest desire

Playing the victim of a vampire king on an island off New Orleans is actress Avalon Morgan’s creepiest role to date. It’s also scary good fun—until the victim of a real killer is discovered on set, laid out for all to see. With production shut down, Avalon can’t stop thinking about the chilling crime scene, or Grayson Avery, the investigator working the case.

With a rising body count and zero leads, Gray can’t help but be impressed by Avalon’s amateur sleuthing, which takes her to the darkest corners of the internet, where killers confess their crimes. One such account is a dead ringer for the murders, but when the evidence vanishes, nobody believes Avalon—except for Gray. With no one they can trust, Avalon and Gray are determined to unbury the truth at any cost, but a return to the deadly island could be the last thing they do.
