Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her classic tale, Charlotte Brontë introduced readers to the strong-willed and intelligent Jane Eyre. The Jane Eyre Chronicles pick up where Brontë left off, with Jane married to her beloved Edward Rochester and mother to a young son. But Jane soons finds herself having to protect those she loves… While extensive repairs are being made to Ferndean, their rural home, Jane and Edward accept an invitation from their friend Lucy Brayton to stay with her in London. Jane is reluctant to abandon their peaceful life in the countryside, but Edward’s damaged vision has grown worse. She hopes that time in the capital will buoy his spirits and give him the chance to receive treatment from an ocular specialist. Once in London, the Rochesters accompany Lucy to the Italian Opera House. But there is more drama in the audience than on stage—Jane not only unexpectedly finds herself in the presence of King George and his mistress, Lady Conygham, she also encounters an old nemesis in the form of Lady Ingram (whose daughter, Blanche, once hoped to wed Edward herself). The aging dowager deals both Jane and Lucy a very public snub; hoping to mitigate the social damage caused by this, Lucy insists on visiting the Ingrams the next day. The visit goes poorly from the start—and ends with Lady Ingram dropping dead in the midst of taking tea. It soon becomes clear that the dowager’s death was an unnatural one, and Jane must set her considerable intelligence to the problem of solving it—and why the throne appears to have an interest …

Book excerpt: Life isn't going so well for ex-actress Portia Redvers, in her new role as a temporary chef to the rich and snooty. Not only has her current employer, the Dowager Duchess of Cauldron--the late Duke's second wife--been pushed to her death down Cauldron Manor's dungeon steps, but the senior investigating officer, DI James McCulloch, is the man she lost her heart to after he arrested her on suspicion of murder in a previous investigation. Portia never imagined she'd see him again, and yet, here he is, in her Highland hideout, with an abrasive sidekick, DS Robbie Burns (Raspy), who has the looks of Scarlett Johansson if not the personality. Portia, when she needs help navigating the minefield of real life, hides her feelings behind her carefully crafted dim persona and resurrects characters from her past acting roles--she has a character for every situation. Anything to prevent revealing the real Portia. Now Portia has one thing on her mind. Can she, using her acting experience and calling on past roles as a sleuth, uncover who killed the Dowager and, by doing so, impress James? She knows her love for him is hopeless, he's married, and she has morals, but she can't resist the desire to please him. As an actor, reading body language gives her an edge. Can she spot a liar? Not always, but she can spot a fake. Something James is aware of because he requests her help when interviewing suspects.

Book excerpt: The Second Book in the Critically Acclaimed Historical Mystery Series Featuring Jane Eyre as an Amateur Sleuth. When her husband's damaged vision grows worse, Jane Eyre Rochester suggests a trip to an ocular specialist in London. But a night at the opera changes everything! And what seemed like a healing journey becomes a deadly puzzle that Jane must solve if she wants to protect those she loves. London, early 1800s -- With extensive repairs being made to Ferndean, the rural home of the Rochesters, Jane and her husband accept an invitation from a friend to stay with her in London. Jane is reluctant to abandon their peaceful home in the countryside, but her husband's damaged vision has grown worse-and so have his feelings of depression. Jane hopes that time spent in the nation's bustling capital will buoy his spirits and give him the chance to receive treatment from a specialist. Once in London, the Rochesters accompany their friend to the Italian Opera House. However, is more drama in the audience than on the stage! Jane not only unexpectedly finds herself in the presence of the King, she also comes face-to-face with an old nemesis, a dowager who once hoped her daughter would marry the man who is now Jane's husband. Not surprisingly, the aging dowager deals Jane a very public snub. Hoping to mitigate the damages, Jane makes a social visit to the dowager's house, only to have the elderly woman drop dead while taking tea! It's clear the dowager's death was an unnatural one, and Jane must set her considerable intelligence to the problems of solving the crime...and then a summons from King George IV himself puts Jane squarely in the midst of a battle for the English throne-and the religious freedom of a nation! Death of a Dowger is the critically acclaimed second novel in The Jane Eyre Chronicles. If you like intelligent female characters, a dash of interesting but little-known history, and intense emotions in a historical setting, you'll fall in love with Joanna Campbell Slan's captivating tale.

Book excerpt: When Matilda Benson solicits the help of Perry Mason, her request seems simple enough: cruise to a gambling ship moored just beyond the twelve-mile limit and buy back the IOUs signed by Miss Benson's niece. But after Mason reaches the floating casino, he discovers problems aplenty -- most notably the ship's owner with a bullet hole through his head. Strangely enough, Matilda and her niece are also on board that night . . . when someone tosses a gun over the railing. Does Perry Mason's client have something to hide?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her classic tale, Charlotte Brontë introduced readers to the strong-willed and intelligent Jane Eyre. Picking up where Brontë left off, Jane’s life has settled into a comfortable pattern: She and her beloved Edward Rochester are married and have an infant son. But Jane soon finds herself in the midst of new challenges and threats to those she loves… Jane can’t help but fret when a letter arrives from Adèle Varens—Rochester’s ward, currently at boarding school—warning that the girl’s life is in jeopardy. Although it means leaving her young son and invalid husband, and despite never having been to a city of any size, Jane feels strongly compelled to go to London to ensure Adèle’s safety. But almost from the beginning, Jane’s travels don’t go as planned—she is knocked about and robbed, and no one believes that the plain, unassuming Jane could indeed be the wife of a gentleman; even the school superintendent takes her for an errant new teacher. But most shocking to Jane is the discovery that Adèle’s schoolmate has recently passed away under very suspicious circumstances, yet no one appears overly concerned. Taking advantage of the situation, Jane decides to pose as the missing instructor—and soon uncovers several unsavory secrets, which may very well make her the killer’s next target…

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pair of aristocrat siblings must find a killer to clear their chauffeur’s name when a weekend house party goes awry in this historical mystery. Hurrah for the return of that intrepid duo: Blotto (handsome, honorable, not the sharpest knife in the drawer), and his sister Twinks (just a bit brainier than a girl should be)! As this is the 1920s, they are of course attending a weekend house party, where—how astonishing!—a murder is announced. One of the guests has the gall to accuse Corky, the siblings’ family chauffeur, so Blotto and Twinks have no choice but to find the real murderer and clear Corky’s good name. And also, you know, keep Corky from hanging and so on. Their sleuthing will take them to an opium den, a crumbling Scottish castle, and—most thrillingly—the headquarters of the evil League of the Crimson Hand. Second in Brett’s highly praised, outrageously funny new series of parodies of the Golden Age of mystery. “Brett intensifies the satire and the action, delivering readers absolute barrages of wordplay and one-liners, which make this romp reminiscent of theatrical farces like The Importance of Being Earnest or You Can’t Take It with You. . . . As in his other novels, Brett is a devastating social critic . . . and master of devastating physical characterization. This is the kind of book you’ll have to put down, frequently, as you roar with laughter.” —Booklist, starred review
