Previously fired for speaking out against workplace injustices, twenty-five-year-old Kay Thompson finds her true calling once appointed to support Eleanor Roosevelt, a champion of human rights known as ER among those in her inner circle. Kay fully embraces her new role as the former First Lady's right hand—typing up daily columns and juggling a blur of political meetings, ribbon cuttings, and charitable dinners. It's not until a dead body is discovered on a train that her most compelling task comes into focus . . .
Stunning Susie Taylor had star quality. Judging from her photos, it's clear why she left Sweden with plans to make it big on Broadway. But when ER enlists Kay's help on a discreet investigation about her sudden disappearance, the two suspect the up-and-comer was concealing secrets about her real identity and motives—all leading to her murder at Washington's Union Station . . .
Plunged into a living Alfred Hitchcock film, an unseasoned Kay and a shrewd ER side with a handsome detective on a search for answers. What was Susie's connection with a charismatic Soviet UN delegate and an atomic energy researcher? As ER makes it her mission to find out, danger looms upon the discovery of another body. Now, Kay must play a central role in exposing the killer—before she becomes the next rising beauty to meet a cruel fate . . .

Tallulah “Lou” Thatcher has a gift: she can see dead people. But in New Orleans, Louisiana, this is not a drawback. On the contrary, her ability to see ghosts helps her host viral ghost tours through the historic Garden District. When rival tour guide Adam Brandt–who accused her of faking her encounters to undercut his business–is found murdered, Lou is the only one who can see him… his ghost, that is.

Ever wondered what ancient secrets lie buried beneath the sands of Egypt? Let me tell you about Sekhet, a curious and determined girl from a humble village whose life takes an extraordinary turn. She stumbles upon a mysterious amulet—heavy, pulsing with an otherworldly energy, and etched with cryptic hieroglyphs. It's like it has a life of its own, hinting at forgotten powers and secrets lost to time. Intrigued by this enigmatic artifact, Sekhet seeks out Neferu, a girl from a distant and mysterious family who've just moved into the grand, crumbling estate on the outskirts of the village.

Portrait of the Medical Student as a Young Body Snatcher. Yet I must insist that in the end, this is not a story about Death. It is perhaps a Life story, or even—yes—a Love story. It is the story of how I clawed my way from the decay of a crumbling legacy into the modern era of Reason and Science. It is the story of how I escaped the prison of archaic superstition to the freedom of enlightenment. It is the story of how a rose can blossom from even the bloodiest soil, of how light can grow from shadow, how love can grow from despair.

Excellent Historical Fiction
I love this combination of history & mystery. Eleanor Roosevelt was an amazing women and it’s great to be reminded of that fact. This plot is exciting and fun and filled with lots of interesting history from the Cold War.
