Book Description
Eve Mallow's stay at the luxurious Abbey Hotel takes a turn for the suspicious when the owner is murdered - leaving Eve surrounded by suspects! Saxford St Peter is Eve Mallow's beloved home, but she can't resist the chance to spend a weekend in the nearby Abbey Hotel, famed for its glamorous owner Debra Moran and an array of celebrity guests. For a confirmed people-watcher like Eve, it's perfect: she can observe the rich and famous while sipping tea in the gardens, her faithful dachshund Gus by her side. But her relaxing break takes a shocking turn when Debra is found lying dead in the shadowy woods around the hotel. One of Eve's fellow guests didn't come to the Abbey for fine food and delightful décor - but to kill. When the investigation gets underway, Eve finds herself trapped with a wide range of suspects. Could it be Debra's new friend Harper, who inherits everything? Her ex-husband Chester, still seething over their messy divorce? Or her estranged sister Amelia, who came hoping for reconciliation, only for Debra to shut the door in her face? As Eve roams the hotel, searching for clues and hunting down alibis, she uncovers a whole host of secrets. But can she find the truth before the killer brings her holiday to a deadly end? A completely unputdownable page-turner, perfect for fans of Faith Martin, Agatha Christie and Joy Ellis. See what readers are saying about the Eve Mallow series: 'Utterly delightful!...

Book Description
Once, not so long ago,a warlock named Vond built an empire in the southern part of the Small Kingdoms. Vond is gone, but his empire survives under the rule of a seven-person Imperial Council and a young regent named Sterren. The Empire of Vond was hardly trouble-free after Vond's departure. Its neighbors are understandably wary of further expansion, there are questions about how Vond's magic became so potent, and so on. Most of the World, though, doesn't care -- Vond is off there in the southeastern corner of the World, far away from anywhere important. But one day a dockworker named Emmis watches a Vondish ship arrive in Ethshar of the Spices and finds himself hired as native guide and aide to someone who claims to be Vond's ambassador plenipotentiary to the overlords of the Hegemony of the Three Ethshars. But who is the Vondish ambassador, really, and what is his true business in Ethshar? And who has followed him to the city?
