IN THIS FIVE-BOOK BOX SET:

THE KILLING TIME
Two young women are found strangled. The only thing they have in common – both worked as reporters for local TV stations.
Rookie Special Agent Shannon Ames is assigned to the case and soon impresses with her brilliant intuition and startling ability to think outside the box.
But as Shannon takes a more prominent role in the investigation, she finds herself drawn into a deadly dance with a serial killer.


HIDE AND SEEK
Special Agent Shannon Ames is thrown back in the deep end when former federal prosecutor Lucy Donato goes missing.
The case takes a surprising turn when Lucy’s husband Bob is caught on camera fleeing with his two small children. Has he done something to his wife? Is he a danger to the kids?
Desperate to protect the kids, Shannon pursues Bob cross-country. But something isn’t sitting right with her – why would a meek office worker suddenly blaze a trail of chaos across several states?
The answer to that question is truly shocking and puts Shannon at the heart of a case she’ll never forget…


IN TOO DEEP
They came looking for pleasure. They found only pain.
A serial killer in New York’s South Bronx is targeting clients of local sex workers. The victims, all male, are either burned alive or beaten to death.
With the body count mounting and no real leads, the FBI sends Shannon Ames undercover.
And as it becomes clear that she's on the killer’s radar, Shannon realizes she’s up against something truly terrifying.


NOWHERE TO HIDE
FBI Agent Shannon Ames is headed for some R&R when an ice storm traps her in Long Lake, NY. But the storm isn’t her only problem when she finds a body by the side of the road.
As Shannon begins to investigate, she realizes there are two vicious killers stalking the town.
But what she doesn’t know is that this little town has secrets that must stay hidden. And when Shannon gets a little too close to the terrible truth, she goes from hunter to hunted.


NO WAY BACK
Kristie Fain is walking to the train when she is snatched by strangers.
Shannon Ames has just been reassigned to the FBI New York Field Office, the biggest in the country. Since Kristie Fain is an aide to a US Senator, Shannon and her FBI team are given the case.
It’s immediately clear the case is anything but straightforward.
As Shannon gets deeper, she finds herself caught up in a web of lies and deceit. Someone powerful is pulling the strings and they will do anything to stop her investigation.

Veil of Doubt

When a mother is charged with murder in a town already convinced of her guilt, can defense attorney Powell Harrison find truth and justice in a legal system where innocence is not presumed? 

Emily Lloyd, a young widow in Reconstruction-era Virginia, is accused of poisoning her three-year-old daughter, Maud. It isn’t the first death in her home—her husband and three other children all died of mysterious illnesses—so when Maud succumbs to an unexplained malady, the town suspects foul play. Soon Mrs. Lloyd is charged not only with poisoning the child but also with murdering her children, her husband, and her aunt. 

Enter Powell Harrison, a soft-spoken, brilliant attorney who recently returned to his Virginia hometown to help his brother manage their late father’s practice. Approached to assist in Mrs. Lloyd’s defense, Harrison initially declines, worried that an infanticide case might tarnish their family’s reputation. But as details about the widow’s erratic behavior and her reclusive neighbors emerge, Harrison begins to suspect that an even more sinister truth might lurk beneath the family’s horrible fate and finds himself irresistibly drawn to the case.  

Based on a shocking true story, Veil of Doubt is part true-crime thriller, part medical and legal procedural. Perfect for fans of Margaret Atwood’s Alias Grace and filled with rich period detail gleaned from exhaustive research, Veil of Doubt delves into the darkness of the South during Reconstruction, exposing intrigue, deception, and death.

, fearless intelligence operative Lord Alexander Hawke matches wits with a cunning and bloodthirsty psychopath in a desperate race to avert an American Armageddon.

A shadowy figure known as the Dog is believed to be the ruthless terrorist who is systematically and savagely assassinating American diplomats and their families around the globe. As the deadly toll mounts inexorably, Alex Hawke, along with former NYPD cop and Navy SEAL Stokely Jones, is called upon by the U.S. government to launch a search for the assassin behind the murders.

Hawke, who makes James Bond look like a "slovenly, dull-witted clockpuncher" (
Kirkus Reviews), is soon following a trail that leads back to London in the go-go nineties, when Arab oil money fueled lavish, and sometimes fiendish, lifestyles. Other murky clues point to the Florida Keys, where a vicious killer hides behind the gates of a fabled museum. And to a remote Indonesian island where a madman tinkers with strains of a deadly virus and slyly bides his time.

Hawke must call upon resources deep within himself and race against time to stop a cataclysmic attack on America's most populous cities and avenge the inexplicable and horrific crime that has left him devastated.

Brimming with relentless action and stylish detail, and featuring a hero that readers will stand up and cheer for,

As the house slowly returns to its former glory, those letters persist in haunting my dreams. Who could be the mysterious author, and why was their love forbidden? And who's putting in so much effort to keep me from learning the truth?

Working alongside Riley, the hunky handyman, is like trying to read a book in the midst of a fireworks display – delightfully distracting, but I'm determined to solve this heartstring-tugging puzzle.
