Book Description
Sharks are among the most persecuted animals on Earth. Nicole’s block-buster story lifts the lid on the shocking details of the trade in shark fins, and raises awareness of the plight of sharks in the 21st century. In November 2003 a female Great White Shark was tagged near Dyer Island in South Africa. Her tag popped up in February 2004, just south of Western Australia. The shark, later to be named Nicole (after shark enthusiast Nicole Kidman), had swum an epic 11,000 km. Scientists were even more surprised when she was identified back in South Africa in August 2004 – she had covered 22,000 km in less than nine months, using pinpoint navigation both ways. Since then, many Great Whites have been tagged and have shown a propensity for undertaking long migrations – but none has yet matched Nicole's amazing feat. This story incorporates a blend of science, actual events and real people, along with conjecture as to what might have happened on Nicole's momentous journey.

Book Description
DIVThe Swap is "full of page-by-page surprises" –Kirkus Reviews "a hold-onto-the-bar roller coaster of a mystery" –RT Book Reviews When Nicole Graves arranges a summer-long swap of her Los Angeles condo for a London couple's house, she thinks it's the perfect arrangement. She's always dreamed of seeing the real London; she's also hopeful the time away with her husband Brad will be good for their troubled marriage. But things don't turn out the way Nicole expects: The Londoners fail to arrive in L.A. and appear to be missing. Then people begin following Nicole and making threats, demanding information she doesn't have. Soon, Nicole realizes she's in serious trouble––but she can't get Brad or the police to believe her. When the confrontations turn deadly, Nicole must either solve the case or become the next victim. Winner of the Eric Hoffer Award — Best Micro Press Book of the Year The Bequest Nicole Graves, still reeling from her London kidnapping in The Swap, is struggling to balance work at L.A.'s most prestigious law firm and a long-distance romance with her English lover. Things go sideways when she tracks down a missing colleague. The murder of the firm's in-house investigator, his mysterious wealth, and his inexplicable bequest make Nicole a target for the police, the paparazzi, and the killer. When Nicole's life takes an unexpected turn, she uncovers evil and corruption among the city's most powerful people. The fast-paced mystery unravels against the backdrop of L.A. with its peculiar mix of balmy weather, the celebrity-crazed media, and a corrupt power structure hidden by the veneer of glamour and wealth. Liar Liar As a newly minted private investigator, Nicole Graves expects to take on legal cases for corporate clients. But when her client's son, Brad Rexton, is killed trying to protect his wife, Ashley, from a home invasion-turned-kidnapping, the firm is hired to investigate. Nicole soon discovers that Ashley is not the person she claims to:"Nicole Graves is the best fictional sleuth to come down the pike since Sue Grafton's Kinsey Millhone." Laura Levine, author of the popular Jaine Austen Mysteries The Nicole Graves Mysteries have been compared to Mary Higgins Clark, and are praised for contributing to the "women-driven mystery field with panache" (Foreword Reviews) as well as for their "hold-onto-the-bar roller coaster," plots (RT Book Reviews) with "adventures both nightmarish and dreamy" (Kirkus Reviews). The Swap (Book 1) "Mary Higgins Clark meets London" Foreword Reviews When Nicole Graves arranges a summer-long swap of her Los Angeles condo for a London couple's house, she thinks it's the perfect arrangement, but instead she finds she's accidentally stumbled into an international drug ring.

Kirkus Reviews When Nicole's life takes an unexpected turn with an unwelcome inheritance, she uncovers evil and corruption among the city's most powerful people. Liar Liar (Book 3) "Boyarsky's imagination serves up a court case that plays with expectations during an era where we push to believe women, resulting in some real bad baddies whom it feels good to root against."
