The Night Agent: A Novel Over 2,000 5-Star Reviews!

The basis for the hit Netflix series. A “paranoid, pulse-pounding thriller that could not be more prescient” about one FBI’s agents’ attempt to unravel an international conspiracy.

At 1:05 A.M. the phone rings. A terrified young woman named Rose tells FBI Agent Peter Sutherland that two people have just been murdered and that the killer might still be in the house with her. One of the victims gave her this phone number with urgent instructions: “Tell them OSPREY was right. It’s happening…”

The call thrusts FBI Agent Peter Sutherland into the heart of a conspiracy years in the making, involving a Russian mole at the highest levels of the U.S. government. Anyone in the White House could be the traitor. Anyone could be corrupted. To save the nation, Peter must take the rules into his own hands, question everything, and trust no one.

The Night Agent marks the return of the classic conspiracy thriller, and “drips with the kind of eye for the telling detail that only a canny reporter, detective or spy possesses.” (Forbes) With incredible twists and heart-stopping action, this electrifying novel pulls back the curtain on Washington power and confirms Matthew Quirk as a new master of suspense.

The Wild Lavender Bookshop (Someday Valley Book 2) Over 300 5-Star Reviews!

Return to the unforgettable world of Someday Valley, Texas, in this tender, uplifting novel of hearts in search of second chances.

The trees that circle Someday Valley near Honey Creek are dressed in their fall finest, providing a pretty backdrop for the local businesses—including the little bookshop loved by schoolteacher Cora Lee Buchanan. There, under the watchful eye of owner Noah O’Brien, Cora Lee and her sister, Katherine, meet each Wednesday. Their talk mostly revolves around one subject: their father, known to everyone in town as Bear.

Both Cora Lee and Katherine worry about Bear Buchanan. They’ve no idea Bear has a secret life of his own. As for the sisters, Katherine, beautiful and self-absorbed, is in search of her third husband, while Cora Lee is in love for the first time. On warm nights, she climbs up to her building’s roof to chat with Noah and listen to the melody of the water below. Yet there is more intrigue afoot in Honey Creek…

Andi Delane has arrived in town to hear the last wishes of the father she never met. She was shocked to get a letter from lawyer Jackson Landry, and she has few expectations—of this mysterious will, or of Deputy Danny Davis who’s been assigned to protect her. But fall always brings changes, and this year there will be enough to alter not just the lives of those who call Honey Creek home, but the future of Someday Valley itself…

Empty Promises: And Other True Cases (Ann Rule's Crime Files Book 7) Over 350 5-Star Reviews!

Expertly analyzing a shocking, headline-making case, Ann Rule unmasks the deadly motives inside a seemingly idyllic marriage: a beautiful young wife, a rising star in America’s top-ranked computer corporation, and a prosperous husband, the scion of a family building business.

With an adorable son and a gorgeous home, the couple seemed to have it all. But a furtive evil permeated their days and nights, dragging them into a murky world of drugs, sordid sex, and con operations. In this realm, one of them would prove to be a virtual innocent, the other a manipulator with no conscience. Sudden, violent death brought their charade of a fairy-tale romance to a tragic end—with a brutal crime that might never have come to light were it not for the stubborn detectives and prosecutors whose fight for justice spanned an entire decade.

Empty Promises recounts several other cases where the search for love brought only lies and betrayal—a cautionary primer, perhaps, for those who trust too much too soon. Powerful because they strike so close to home, the cases in Empty Promises will leave readers shaken by the realities of love gone terribly—and fatally—wrong.

Murder is no occupation for a lady… or is it?

It seems at first an accident, but Clara soon begins to question if it was in fact a carefully orchestrated murder.

She’s suddenly in the middle of a deadly mystery and will discover her scientific skills make her a sleuth to be reckoned with… Can she catch the killer before they strike again?

Pride & Puppies (Pine Hollow) In this fun small-town romance, a Jane Austen fan struggling to find her modern-day Mr. Darcy gets more than she bargained for when she swears off men and adopts an adorable puppy.

Dr. Charlotte Rodriguez is single—again—and she blames Jane Austen. She made brooding, aloof men sound oh sodreamy.

Beyond the High Blue Air: A Memoir Over 200 5-Star Reviews!

A mother reflects on the 5-year aftermath of her son’s traumatic brain injury in this intimate, unflinching portrait of familial love and the profound dilemma posed by modern medicine.

When Lu Spinney’s 29-year-old son, Miles, flies up on his snowboard, he lands hard on the ice and falls into a coma. Thus begins the erratic loss that unravels over the next 5 years. Spinney, her husband, and 3 other children put their lives on hold to tend to Miles at various hospitals and finally in a care home. They hold out hope that he will be returned to them.

A deeply personal memoir, Beyond the High Blue Air also offers universal meaning, presenting an eloquent and piercing description of ambiguous loss: grieving the disappearance of someone who is still there. Three quarters of the way through, however, Spinney’s story takes a turn. The family and, to the degree that he can communicate, Miles himself come to view ending his life as the only possible release from the prison of his body and mind. Spinney, cutting her last thread of hope, wishes for her son to die. And yet, even as she allows this difficult revelation to settle, she learns that this is not her decision to make. Because Miles is diagnosed as being in a “minimally conscious state” rather than a “persistent vegetative state,” there is no legal way to bring about his death, a bewildering paradox that Spinney navigates with compassion and wisdom.

This profound book encompasses the lyrical revelations of a memoir like Jean–Dominique Bauby’s The Diving Bell and the Butterfly as well as the crucial medical and moral insights of a book such as Atul Gawande’s Being Mortal.
