File "M" for Murder Librarian and former New Yorker Catherine Penny has already sleuthed out the truth behind a deadly house fire since settling in the tiny English town of Far Wychwood. But nowhere is too far for painful memories to find her when her ex-husband, who left her single in her sixties, arrives with his new lady love to attend a family affair. Catherine can't avoid him at the awards ceremony honoring their son-in-law, Peter, who is a shoo-in for a prestigious appointment at Oxford's Mercy College. But the shock of Peter not being chosen is matched only by who is: pompous, womanizing scholar Edgar Stone. And when Stone is found murdered, Peter's guilt seems hardly academic.... Patricia Harwin, who introduced a "charming, compassionate" (The New Mystery Reader) heroine in Arson and Old Lace, shows once again why an American woman in an English town can unearth a whole lot of trouble.

A murder mystery featuring Lord Edward Corinth and Verity Browne August 1939, the last hot days of a perfect English summer as the certainty of war descends. Newlyweds Lord Edward Corinth and Verity Browne are determined to spend these last days of peace quietly in their new house in a sleepy Sussex village - a honeymoon of sorts. But fight against it as he might, for Edward it turns out to be a busman's holiday. When poet Byron Gates is bizarrely murdered after the village fete - executed, in fact, his head chopped off on a wooden block - Edward is asked to investigate. Alas, murder is not yet done with Verity and Edward, for even in the hallowed studios of Broadcasting House, murder dares to rear its ugly head. Before Verity can take up her new foreign posting, there are more deaths and the intrepid couple embark on one of their most dangerous investigations to date. Praise for David Roberts: 'A gripping, richly satisfying whodunit with finely observed characters, sparkling with insouciance and stinging menace' Peter James 'A really well-crafted and charming mystery story' Daily Mail 'A perfect example of golden-age mystery traditions with the cobwebs swept away' Guardian

What if Romeo and Juliet had not died? What if their plan had succeeded and they had run away together? Sweet Sorrow, Bitter Joy, set in Edwardian England, shows the young couple, with the help of a well-meaning but imprudent local vicar, escaping to start their new life together. With their feuding families reeling over the relationship between the two youngsters and the abrupt killing of another young man in the heat of the moment, circumstances are stacked against the adolescent couple from the start of their union. The shocking reaction of the feuding families leaves a bitter aftertaste in the wake of the departure of the two young people, revealing the hypocrisy of those who care more for reputation than for relationships. The two women of Stonewick Park, the lady of the house and the nurse, share the tale of young love overshadowed by recklessness and the pressure of outside influences. It is not a story of the star-crossed lovers, but of the star-crossed mothers who must cope with the loss of their children. In the end, it is the unconditional, eternal love of mother and child that conquers all.

As a photographer I am always aware that faces ... especially eyes ... have a story to tell. As a writer, I often call up the visual image to lead me into a descriptive narrative. When I photographed these children in 1971, their faces had a story to tell. I believe I have that story in my novel, "Such Sweet Sorrow." This suspense thriller is set in the hills of East Tennessee. The story begins when a rural school teacher's seven-year-old student, Donna-Dean Silcox, says she has been told not to come home from school. This situation ultimately leads to the discovery by the County Sheriff, of an "outlandish" murder. The Sheriff quickly endears himself to the child, to the teacher, and to the reader. This piece of Southern fiction keeps you turning pages through cliff-hanging chapters.

Never was there a tale of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo... But true love never dies. Though they're parted by the veil between the world of mortals and the land of the dead, Romeo believes he can restore Juliet to life, but he'll have to travel to the underworld with a thoroughly infuriating guide. Hamlet, Prince of Denmark, may not have inherited his father's crown, but the murdered king left his son a much more important responsibility---a portal to the Afterjord, where the souls of the dead reside. When the determined Romeo asks for help traversing the treacherous Afterjord, Hamlet sees an opportunity for adventure and the chance to avenge his father's death. In an underworld filled with leviathan monsters, ghoulish shades, fire giants, and fierce Valkyrie warriors, Hamlet and Romeo must battle their way through jealousy, despair, and their darkest fears to rescue the fair damsel. Yet finding Juliet is only the beginning, and the Afterjord doesn't surrender souls without a price...

Praise for the Lord Edward Corinth-Verity Browne series: "Roberts just keeps getting better with each book."--Publishers Weekly "Recommend[ed] heartily for history-mystery devotees."--Booklist "The political context keeps the stakes high enough to satisfy fans of international thrillers and historical romances alike."--Kirkus Reviews "A witty and meticulous recreation of the class-ridden middle England of the 1930s . . . a perfect example of golden-age mystery traditions with the cobwebs swept away."--Guardian At the outset of World War II, Byron Gates, a self-absorbed poet, moves out of London together with his young daughter and stepdaughter to avoid the anticipated bombing. His wife, an actress, is in the States. His acquaintance, Virginia Woolf, has found him a little cottage in the village of Rodmell where she and her husband, Leonard, are living. Coincidentally, newlyweds Verity Browne and Lord Edward Corinth are setting up their first home in the Old Vicarage. Gates is anxious to curry favor with the "Woolves" and their set. His children put on a pageant for the neighbors based on the beheading of King Charles I, and then Gates is found dead as if executed for treason. Verity and Lord Edward investigate this gruesome murder. David Roberts worked in publishing for over thirty years before turning to writing full time. He has written ten mysteries featuring Lord Edward Corinth and Verity Browne. He divides his time between London and Wiltshire.

Sometimes fate rides a man down a violent road… Jake Horn was a healer—until he was falsely accused of murder and had to run. Now the hands he once used to cure the ailing have a new purpose: wrapped around the handles of twin six-guns. A GOOD MAN IN A BAD TOWN Aptly named, the town of Sweet Sorrow, within the Dakota territories, is the kind of place that draws all manner of misfits, drunks, gamblers, and dreamers—a perfect town for Jake Horn to get lost in. But a strange plague of madness, brutality, and murder seems to run rampant here—and a slippery Texan named Roy Bean is pressuring Jake to bring a much-needed sanity to the lawless outpost. But accepting the job of Marshal could be the last humanitarian act Jake ever performs. Because thunder is rumbling on the horizon—and a famous bounty hunter from Bismarck is rolling in on the evening stage, determined to collect the substantial reward being offered for bringing the fugitive Jake Horn in stone-cold dead.
