In this “chilling” novel by an Edgar Award–winning author, a former mental patient seeks revenge against the powerful family that framed him (The New York Times). After years in a mental hospital, Harold Page has just been released. Now, he’s looking for closure, hoping to confront those who put him away: his ex-wife’s family. Instead, he’s greeted at the Whitman home by a total stranger. But Edie, an empathetic visiting relative, knows all about Harold. He’s the unfortunate soul the influential Whitman clan had institutionalized after an alleged assault. He’s the “madman” police are hunting in a recent brutal crime. He’s also an unwitting pawn in a dangerous family plot. Edie is certain of it. And there’s only one way she can protect him: Hide Harold in the unused turret room of the Whitman mansion, only a heartbeat away from those who want to destroy him. As they collude to turn the tables on the family and unveil every secret and lie behind the Whitmans’ deception, Edie fears the sanctuary she’s given Harold could be the ultimate trap for both of them . . . “Chilling . . . beautifully calculated . . . with a nicely adjusted sense of exactly when and how to turn the screw.” —The New York Times
The turret room has a cozy appearance and a fantastic view, but when she stepped into it, Julie shook with chills to the point of nearly screaming. Strange happenings make her feel that someone besides her and her husband must be in the old house that they have just purchased. If it weren’t for Julie being so sexy, Jim would have gone nuts from all the strange happenings that were engulfing them. Does the disappearance of the deranged and frightening old man who lived there have anything to do with it? Jim has installed new locks on every door and window. He has searched every inch of the house, including the attic and spiderweb-infested crawl space. The old carriage house out back feels weird and spooky. A search for cameras and recording devices also reveals nothing. Yet a pair of eyes may always be watching. Uncovering the secret could reveal a historical event that could change the history of our country.
What do you get when you cross a smoking-hot rock star with a sexy human who identifies as a shifter, then throw in a heaping dose of gothic fairytale enchantment? She Wolf, Fiona Phillips, is about to find out! Seven young people close to her have fallen prey to the Iris drug comas that are plaguing the music world, and with an Evil Stepmother hounding her every move, Fiona is busy just trying to keep her life from imploding. But someone's got to put a stop to the madness, and if no one else will step up, Fiona has the fierce courage to try. Or is that fierce stupidity? Either way, she is not prepared for so much as friendship when sexy human drummer, Bradley “Fly” Flyer comes riding to her rescue… whether she wants him to or not. Try as she might though, she can't resist Fly's humor and charm, and why should she want to? She deserves a little happiness too, shifter magic and poisoned fruit be damned!

Audley End House in Essex - or Station 43 as it was known during the Second World War - was used as the principal training school for SOE's Polish Section between 1942 and 1944. Polish agents at the stately home undertook a series of arduous training courses in guerilla warfare before being parachuted into occupied Europe. In 1943, Audley End was placed exclusively under polish control, a situation unique within SOE. The training was tough and the success rate low, but a total of 527 agents passed through Audley End between 1942 and 1944. Ian Valentine has consulted a wide range of primary sources and interviewed Polish instructors and former agents who trained at Audley End to write the definitive account of this Essex country house and the vital but secret part it played in defeating Hitler. He examines the comprehensive training agents at Audley End and describes the work undertaken by Station 43's agents in Europe, set against the background of Polish wartime history. He also covers the vital link with the RAF's Special Duties squadrons, whose crews risked their lives dropping agents into occupied Europe. Station 43 breaks new ground in telling the hitherto until story of Audley End house and its role as a vital SOE training school.
