About In Deception’s Shadow

New Release Box Set. Only 99c for a limited time.

Enemies by nature. Companions by choice.
When unforeseen circumstances force natural enemies to become allies, something far more enduring than animosity is born.

~*~*~ Betrayal’s Price ~*~*~
Warrior-Scout Ashayna Stonemantle has no awareness of her fate until her sentient magic manipulates her into seeking out one of the enemy—Sorntar, Crown Prince of the Phoenix. If she dare trust the word of an enemy prince who is also an avian shape-shifting mage, their souls and futures are eternally linked.

When their willful magic awakens early and forces them into an unbreakable bond, Ashayna and Sorntar are accused of being corrupted by an ancient evil. To prove their innocence, they must work together to discover what happened in the past to pit bondmate against bondmate. As the search for the truth draws them closer together, Ashayna realizes she has growing feelings for Sorntar. But before she can tell him, his tainted power enslaves him.

Faced with an impossible decision, Ashayna chooses to fight for Sorntar’s soul even at the risk of her own.

~*~*~ Herd Mistress ~*~*~
Magic. It turned Sorsha Stonemantle’s world on its head. Yet she can’t hate magic for without it Shadowdancer, the Santhyrian ambassador, would never have come into her life.

In the days following their first meeting, Sorsha knows Shadowdancer completes her soul. There’s only one problem. Any relationship beyond friendship is impossible.

From the moment Shadowdancer encountered Sorsha, he knew she was a Herd Mistress—a rare worker of magic, key to the Santhyrian nation’s survival. His first obligation is to protect her and bring her back to the safety of the herd, but when Sorsha is threatened by Lord Master Trensler and his priesthood, they soon discover Trensler serves a darker master, one willing to devour all magic until the world dies. And that evil wants Shadowdancer and Sorsha.

When a second ambush set by Trensler cripples Sorsha’s magic and traps Shadowdancer in the form of a man, they barely escape with their lives. Unwilling to allow her lack of magic to rule her life, Sorsha sets out to teach Shadowdancer that being human isn’t a curse. The proud Santhyrian stubbornly tries to push Sorsha away, but when they are endangered once again, they realize they must work together to find a way to heal themselves. If they fail, Trensler’s master will devour first them and then everything else Sorsha and Shadowdancer ever loved.

~*~*~ Maiden’s Wolf ~*~*~
Beatrice, a young healer living on the outskirts of the human port settlement of River’s Divide, simply wishes to hide herself from the searching eyes of the Priesthood of the Revealing Light. The last thing she wants ‘revealed’ is that she is host to a Larnkin—a spirit creature of vast and forbidden magic.

Her already complicated life grows more perilous when a lupwyn scout stumbles into a trap set by the priesthood. If she sits back and does nothing, the wolf-like shapeshifter will be drained dry by the priests until he is an empty, soulless slave. As a healer, that isn’t something she will allow. But lupwyns have no love for the newly arrived humans.

For the sake of mutual survival, Beatrice hopes this lupwyn can see beyond the hatred caused by two warring peoples. If not, she might die at the hands of the male she is trying to save.

About Scholes of The Yard, the Casebook of a Scotland Yard Detective 1888 to 1924

Alfred Earnest Scholes joined the Metropolitan Police in February 1888 and was one of many constables that were posted to the dark slums of Whitechapel during the Jack the Ripper scare of the same year. In a career spanning 36 years from lowly PC Scholes to Detective Inspector, this book examines some of the most fascinating crimes and criminals that had Victorian and Edwardian England shocked and enthralled. Beginning with the infamous Mrs Pearcey in the Kentish Town Murder, who cut the throat of her lover’s wife and smothered their baby, before walking the bodies through the streets in an overloaded pram, this book goes deeper than ever before into some of the crimes you may have heard of, and some you may not. Includes for the first time in over 110 years a sensational solution to the infamous murder of Emily Dimmock in The Camden Town Murder.
Hear about depraved sexual deviant, the Mad Monk Widdows, who preyed on vulnerable young boys; the tragic Adolf Beck, whose case led to the creation of the Criminal Court of Appeal; Lily Miers, the West End’s most brazen and successful shoplifter; Milsom and Fowler, who beat to death an elderly man in the kitchen of his own home in The Muswell Hill Murder; Ann O’Delia Diss Debar who robbed, conned and raped her way through a shocked Victorian London; and the enigmatic and adventurous life of Chicago May, from gangster’s moll in America’s midwest, to confidence trickster in Chicago, New York and London, to safe cracker in Paris and ultimately to the attempted murder of Eddie Guerrin in London’s West End.
In 1922, Detective Inspector Scholes, now of the Port of London Authority Police, boarded the SS Morea and seized letters written by Edith Thompson to her lover Freddie Bywaters, which were instrumental in sending them both to the gallows in what was known as The Ilford Murder Case. But was Edith Thompson a victim of a miscarriage of justice as some have since claimed, or a scheming, murderous woman, responsible for the deaths of two men in the primes of their lives? G S Burroughs explores the letters and the trial at The Old Bailey and finishes this revealing and fascinating book with his controversial conclusion.

About The Cuba Cage

Laura was a child, a six year old, little girl.
She had no idea why she’d been taken from her mummy, or where she was going.

Her new friend was nice enough, but Laura really missed her home.
Luckily, she was too young to realise exactly what was about to happen to her.

Her mother was distraught. Being told that you will never see your daughter again is unimaginable. That’s not something you can ever recover from.

This is a novel in the acclaimed Hedge & Cole thriller series.
(The Cuba Cage story concludes in this book, but the main characters are set to return in future exploits).

Cole is a tough, ex-military man. He’s the sort of person that trouble and danger seem to follow, wherever he goes. He can be ruthless when he needs to be. And he often finds the need.

Hedge is a reluctant hero. Plagued with anxieties and haunted by flashbacks, he is not the type of lead character that you would normally expect. This novel is refreshingly different in that respect.

It’s going to be their toughest assignment yet, but getting anything close to a good outcome just doesn’t seem very likely.

This is not one for the faint-hearted!

Kevin Bradley once again shows how to mix fast paced action, with suspense and intrigue. This novel will have you on the edge of your seat from start to finish.

This book would sit well alongside your Lee Child and Michael Connelly favourites!
