An awful shame . . .”In the disreputable dance-halls and ‘houses of accommodation’ of 1870s London, a boastful killer selects his prey. His crimes seem like random acts of malevolence, but Inspector Decimus Webb, promoted to the Detective Branch at Scotland Yard, is not convinced.Webb begins to suspect a connection between the terrible murders, a mysterious theft at the Abney Park Cemetery, and a long-forgotten suicide. His investigations lead him, in turn, to the Holborn General Mourning Warehouse, devoted to the sale of ‘Mourning for Families, In Correct Taste,’ and its proprietor, one Jasper Woodrow, a seemingly respectable business man.As Webb delves into Woodrow’s life, he uncovers layer upon layer of deceit. But can he unearth Jasper Woodrow’s darkest secret, in time to prevent another tragedy?The Welfare of the Dead is a suspense-filled gothic mystery with the Victorian celebration of death at its morbid heart.From the Hardcover edition.

Atcho is no ordinary spy. He didn't train for it...As the Berlin Wall crumbles, can he stop it from falling to terror at the hands of conspirators embittered by their loss of supremacy? Hard-liners plot to keep their grasp on power that held a population of millions imprisoned for decades, with its savage machinery. They're ready to take extreme measures to preserve absolute authority. Will they gun down crowds and leave bodies in the streets to re-instill fear and re-establish order? Will they use weapons of mass destruction? Covert operators fight to ensure the hated Wall comes down. Could Atcho's wife, Sofia, be one of them? She has an agenda she is unwilling to share with anyone, including Atcho. Can he block the cabal intent on reversing the march of history? Can he do it and come out alive--with Sofia? Readers of Bourne and Reacher will love Atcho's pulse-pounding exploits because they're so real. You'll be left wondering was that fiction--or could it have happened exactly that way?

After Dunkirk (The After Dunkirk Series)

In the tradition of grand World War II sagas Beneath a Scarlet Sky and Of Windmills and War, After Dunkirk introduces the Littlefield family, fighting valiantly in the darkest days of the German occupation. 
AFTER DUNKIRK heralds a stunning new voice in historical epics, a worthy heir to Wouk and Follett. 
"Lee Jackson embeds you in the peril of war-torn France in the aftermath of Dunkirk."-Buzz Bernard, author of MWSA finalist When Heroes Flew\nFrom the beaches of Dunkirk to the codebreakers of Bletchley Park, from Resistance bombings in the south of France to the machinations in the basements of MI-6. 
Winston Churchill called it Britain's finest hour. The Royal Navy evacuated 330,000 soldiers from Dunkirk. 
But more than 200,000 were left behind. 
On the beaches, Jeremy Littlefield hides for his life. His path home will draw him through the iron will and the unbreakable heart of the French Resistance. 
Only a few miles away, his brother, Lance, rallies fellow soldiers to start a trek that will take them across Europe, sabotaging the Germans in a mission tantamount to suicide. 
Back in England, their sister Claire works at Bletchley Park, cracking the codes that could save the lives of her brothers, and thousands of their comrades. 
Finally, there is Paul, the cerebral eldest son, working for MI-6, who always knows more than he is able to tell his beloved siblings.
