1. Catriona
A Sequel to 'Kidnapped
A young Scotsman fights to secure his rightful inheritance and a future in the unsettled, politically charged world after the Jacobite risings, finding himself pulled into legal battles, secret loyalties, and dangerous intrigues. Reunited with a fiery Highland companion who complicates his fortunes, he also falls deeply for a proud, conflicted young woman whose family ties and secrets test both love and honor. The story blends courtroom maneuvering, clandestine peril, and moral dilemmas as he struggles to reconcile justice, loyalty, and the cost of affection.

2. Клуб самоубийц. Алмаз Раджи
Серия увлекательных новелл рассказывает о приключениях принца Флоризеля и его спутника полковника Джеральдина, которые сталкиваются с таинственной сетью, вынуждающей людей играть в смертельную игру, и расследуют серию самоубийств, чтобы раскрыть преступный заговор и спасти невинных. В параллельных историях исчезающий и, по слухам, проклятый алмаз становится поводом для воровства, обмана и человеческих страстей; судьбы камня ведут через различных персонажей и обнажают моральную слабость и хитрость людей. Комбинация детективного расследования, приключений и тонкой социальной сатиры создает напряжённую и остроумную картину света и тени человеческой природы.
