Hollywood is rocked after the remains of one of the most idolized movie stars of the ’60s are stolen. The thief chooses Gideon Kincaid to deliver the ransom, forcing the PI and ex-cop to set about unraveling a master plan that will include extortion, blackmail and murder. While trying to stay one step ahead of his nemesis, Gideon is led on a harrowing roller coaster ride through sun and sin-drenched Hollywood. The dead beauty is not Gideon’s only concern; he must also contend with a few live ones. First there’s the tough-as-nails cop assigned to the case—Gideon’s bitter ex-wife. Then there’s the gorgeous starlet he must protect. Unfortunately they have a history that puts her in jeopardy. Finally there’s Gideon’s assistant, the adorable and adoring Hillary, whose involvement in the case endangers them both. As the body count mounts and the madman’s crimes grow ever more audacious, Gideon finds himself in a desperate race against time. Can he put a stop to this crime spree before Gideon himself ends up dead and very buried?

It’s Halloween and time for the goblins to come out. But for Essie Cobb, senior sleuth, and her pals at the Happy Haven Assisted Living Facility, there’s nothing quite so spooky as a good mystery. Maybe it’s the strange new resident who resembles Mark Twain. Why does he collect a box surreptitiously each day from a stranger behind the kitchen entrance? Or maybe it’s Felix Federico, Happy Haven’s new manager. Where did this Italian heart throb of all the female residents, develop his charming ways? And will Essie’s pals be able to convince her to go on a field trip to a local haunted house despite her aversion to any activity that takes her away from a nearby restroom? But most important––why is Essie seeing things? Such as large rodents in her shower, faces in her crossword puzzles, and the ghost of her dead husband on her favorite television game show? Is she being haunted or is age finally catching up to this ninety-year-old lady? Essie isn’t one to just sit around and wait for an answer. She’s going into detective mode and find out why she’s being GHOSTED.

As World War One rages on the killing fields of Flanders, another battle is playing out in the Holy Land.
British forces invade a stronghold of the Ottoman Empire, fighting German officers, Arab conscripts and Turkish troops.
But as the British armies advance, the Germans suspect they have a traitor within their ranks.
An agent - code-named Daniel - is transmitting messages to the British from the heart of the German headquarters.
If they can't stop him, the war will be lost.
But as the Germans dig deeper, they discover an espionage ring called Nili
made up of Zionist Jews supporting the British.
They begin close in on the ring.
But will they ever unearth the true identity of Daniel?
And what is the true purpose of the organisation known as Nili?
In this gripping novel, Colin Smith interweaves the stories of British Tommies, German officers and Jewish nationals.
In a tale of intrigue and espionage the hunt for Daniel turns into a race against time, as the British prepare to meet the Austrian troops on the brutal battlefield at Huj.
