New York: Kensington Publishing Corporation, 2000 Book. Fine. Pbk. 1st Pbk Edition. "When a dead body is found in a castle library, Elizabethan herbalist Susanna, Lady Appleton, investigates a mystery that mixes passion and deadly ambition into a potent brew. Luxurious Madderly Castle hosts velvet tapestries, hidden doors, slinking servants...and a murdered houseguest, Baron Glenelg. Ordered by Queen Elizabeth to help chatelaine Eleanor Madderly complete a new book on botanical decoctions, Susanna soon realizes there is more to the royal request when she finds out the victim was face down upon an herbal--the very one she herself authored. And when one lady and then another perish in a brutal manner, Susanna must unmask the killer quickly, before she becomes the next to die.".

Description:
London: Harper Collins, 2002 Book. Near Fine. Soft cover. 1st Pbk Ed... It is the beginning of the war and Gareth Owen, Mamur Zapt and Head of Cairo's Secret Police, is unhappily rounding up enemy aliens. But nationality is a slippery thing in cosmopolitan Egypt. Who counts as German? And whose is the face in the cemetery? Owen would prefer to have to answer neither of these questions. He is preoccupied with missing guns (missing? in war time?) and dubious ghaffirs. Villages usually pick Dogberry-type simpletons as their watchmen. But what are these toughs doing here? And this heavily-armed, thumb-sucking girl? The face in the cemetery, though, refuses to go away, and Owen comes to realize that it poses questions that are not just professional but uncomfortably personal..

Curiosity had prompted her to accept an invitation to tea from the two inhabitants -the beautiful, lonely Angelica and her grandmother. Now, that same curiosity drove Meg to see Angelica once more. Her search led her to an old house in a seemingly peaceful hamlet--a house where the evil and decay lay hidden behind its graceful facade--a house where violence and sudden death were not strangers..

Description:
Athens: Lycabettus Press, 2010 Book. New Book from Greece. Soft cover. 1st Greek Ed... 'The remote, uninhabited island of Falconera almost half way between Athens and Crete is the focus of daring exploits in the last months of World War II. If the German munitions fleet succeeds in reinforcing the German army on Crete the Occupation will continue, prolonging the war. The British navy can stop this fleet only if they can locate it, information that only can be provided by a small schooner from the Greek Schooner Raiding Flotilla. The story is fiction but the setting real. The author, Alexis Ladas, was a 24 year old captain on a Greek Raiding Schooner in 1944. The little known Greek Schooner Raiding Flotilla in World War II; its bases in Alexandria, Egypt and Deremen, Turkey; its only slightly disguised commander; and the feelings of the books hero in war were very real indeed. The author wrote what he lived. On one level, this book is a gripping romance and a suspense-filled tale of action. It is…
