But that’s the least of her problems. Amanda has just got a furniture restoration job at the old English Manor of Sunken Madley with its murky past.Armed only with a wand and Tempest, her grumpy reincarnated cat, she’s going in. A body, ghosts, hidden tunnels, chills and unexplained lights; can Amanda solve the mystery in time and save the village from the scandal of murder? This book is set in England, so the language reflects how we spell and speak here (however strange!). This may be a little different from what you’re used to, especially in the US, but never fear, there’s a glossary at the back of the book if you need help.

Alaska finance professor and reluctant spy Kate Adams is back, but this time she’s in charge and determined to hunt down a self-proclaimed whistleblower code-named The Executive. The intelligence community is reeling. It appears the United States government’s most secret documents are being released onto the Dark Web, but many of the most damaging secrets aren’t even true. Unable to separate truth from fiction, public outrage is growing over actions governments around the world are being falsely accused of taking in the global war on terror.Still struggling with trauma from her previous mission, Kate Adams is pressed back into CIA service to infiltrate a radical anti-government group that may have ties to The Executive. Kate follows the trail to a 21st Century commune in England where, unlike their hippie predecessors, these collectivists have created their own illicit political, economic, and security counterculture on the Dark Web. New clues emerge when the commune’s crypto-currency is stolen and Kate gives chase across the continent where she is forced to face the sinister realities of the people involved, while regaining her personal sense of self-control in a most unorthodox way.
