The search for justice is a dangerous quest.
Jossetta and Samuel Dane, the Discreet Detectives, travel incognito as an under-butler and a kitchen maid to Lord Tilden’s estate to discover who is slowly emptying his fabled wine cellar. They risk their lives to save his wine and he realizes Joss and Sam are more important than any wine or even family pride. They are rewarded for their efforts and return to Dane Hold with new respect for the value of servants.

If Poldark was a woman…she’d be Geneviève
A Woman Forges a Treacherous Path to Save Hundreds from the Guillotine. If Geneviève had the same rights as a man, she wouldn’t have to dress like one or marry one. After saving Louis, a man she thought she hated, she is wanted for her crimes—and he is the only one she can trust. A suspenseful page-turner led by a renegade heroine whose compassion for innocent people leads to both loss and love.
Is the price of peace ever too high?
Joss Dane is not overly worried about her husband, ex-rifleman Sam Dane, going alone to London for the 1814 Peace Celebrations until she gets a letter from his former commander telling him he must assassinate an innocent Quaker, an advocate for permanent peace. She rushes to the city to consult with Sam who suspects both he and the captain are having their strings pulled. This might be the most critical case ever to confront the Discreet Detectives.
