  Motherhood and murder link five very different women when a working-class detective clashes with wealthy moms in this upmarket thriller in the vein of May Cobb and Jeneva Rose.Anderson Tupper, a member of one of Atlanta’s richest families, has been murdered in the dugout of the Little League field where he was a volunteer coach, and it’s up to Detective Shay Claypool, a single mother from the other side of town, to find his killer.With the exclusive area of Buckhead threatening to secede from the city of Atlanta and take its tax revenue with it, Shay is under pressure to solve the murder of one of Buckhead’s own. Accustomed to handling drug dealers and prostitutes, she must now contend with an even more sinister group: the Buckhead Betties, the insufferably entitled women of Georgia’s most affluent zip code. One of them might be a murderer, but who? Is it the old-money queen of Buckhead? The mysterious new girl in town? The drug-dealing trophy wife?It seems secrets and lies are as plentiful as luxury handbags in Atlanta and everyone’s guilty of something. Shay’s investigation will make her examine her own prejudices and discover that, as a woman and a mother, she might not be that different from the Betties after all. And if she isn’t careful, they just might take her down with them.

  All rise in the courtroom for a cozy whodunit murder mystery, a case the media calls The Mic Drop. Controversial rap star Flex switches lawyers for courtroom war king Miles Turner, and The Jury Whisperer, to beat this all-or-nothing charge. 
  Judge Mintall presides in a whodunit range from Flex to premeditated rap rival Second Degree, from The Shenanigans to a political dilemma known as a Rebellious Shadow, the Clue Queen herself, and an unusual delivery service for couples breaking up! 
  With an extra bet, and a unique plea deal offer, can an equally matched prosecutor rhyme “guilty” with “he’ll be?” Or will this criminal defense firm, compared to ‘a street fight on a chessboard,’ once again prevail with an unorthodox lawyer’s audacity to manipulate manipulation itself? 
  “When awareness wins, we don’t have to lose each other” – Jwyan C. Johnson

  All she wants for Christmas is… payback. 
  After their mother is left with life-changing injuries from being attacked in their home, sisters Violet and Rose react very differently. Rose grows up seemingly well-balanced, while Violet —who witnessed the Christmas Eve assault—can think of nothing but vengeance. 
  When a freak accident brings Violet face-to-face with the intruder, fifteen years of torture culminate in the opportunity for cold, hard revenge. But while Violet worms her way into the attacker’s life, Rose discovers their father is not the man they thought they knew. 
  As Rose scrambles to uncover the secrets and lies at the heart of their family, not all the pieces of the puzzle fit—and she soon realises that the reason for their mother’s fate may be closer to home… 
  ...too close. 
  This Christmas, truth is the most dangerous gift of all.
