    Neither expected to risk everything. 
    London, 1819. After two disastrous courtships, American heiress Amelia Edgewood has sworn off marriage altogether. But when she overhears the notorious Lord Nathaniel Sterling betting he can secure her a proposal by the end of the Season, she throws down a challenge of her own: if he wins, the money goes to her cherished orphanage. 
    What begins as a simple arrangement quickly spirals into something far more dangerous to her heart. As Nathaniel introduces Amelia to eligible bachelors, she plays the part of the perfect debutante—until a twist of fate leaves sixteen orphans without shelter. In a move that shocks society and himself, Nathaniel offers his mother’s Bloomsbury townhouse to house the children—with Amelia under the same roof.

    Inspector Cameron Rande is head of Homicide in Toronto's Police Service but he doesn't want to be chained to a desk. He assigns himself to head the investigation into the murder of a high-profile developer in one of Toronto's modern skyscrapers with a bullet from an ancient rifle. Rande and his team are soon plunged into a double murder probe as a contractor is beaten to death with a musical instrument out of the 1950s. Both deaths are tied to The Revelle, a downtown, iconic theatre, which had been slated for demolition by the dead men.  Rande and his college-bound daughter Amelia then meet Estelle Croft, an actress who starred at The Revelle in its heyday in plays like Bell, Book and Candle. Estelle becomes the strangest suspect Rande had ever met. She introduces Cam and Amelia Rande to Franklin, her mysterious manservant, and to Denny Croft. Actually, Denny is a ghost. Estelle's former husband is interred in a crypt in Estelle's big house downtown, but pops out regularly to read books and talk with his wife. Amelia takes to Estelle and, eventually, Denny, but Rande tries to avoid believing in spirits. His detectives are attacked at the theatre as they tie the murder weapons to The Revelle's huge storage room. Rande then finds the theatre is haunted by another former actor and war hero Frank Cavello who died at the Revelle decades before. It is Frank who leads Rande to his prime suspect. It is also Frank who is the Ghost waiting in the wings. This is an intricate murder mystery set in North America's fourth largest city. It's also a ghost story of unrequited love between actors and of a marvelous theatre that just won't die. Thrills, chills and romance.

    The BRAND NEW, action-packed Ryker thriller from million-copy bestselling author Rob Sinclair. 
    His past is coming back with a vengeance… 
    Ex-intelligence agent James Ryker has done many things in the past he’d prefer to forget. The last time he saw Gregor Minko - son to one of Ukraine’s most dangerous and politically influential arms dealers – Gregor was a scared 6-year-old boy in need of protection. But Ryker had to walk away. The boy wasn’t the mission. 
    Twenty years on Ryker is approached by two strangers in Antibes, France, asking for his help in finding Gregor – now going by the name of Gregor Rebrov. With a back catalogue of ‘crimes against the Russian state’, Gregor has escaped from a gulag in Siberia and is now in the wind. 
    Fuelled by old demons and painful memories of his own brutal actions in the past, Ryker finds himself once again in the thick of a complicated race against time and who knows how many of the world’s secret services, to find Gregor and get some answers. 
    As answers turn into more questions, they lead Ryker closer to home… and he can’t shake the feeling that he may be to blame. 
    A brand new high-stakes thriller. Perfect for fans of Lee Child and Robert Ludlum.
