Sepulchre
October 1897: a young girl, Leonie Vernier, disappears from her Aunt's estate, the Domaine de la Cade. That same night, an elderly priest is murdered. Ghostly music is heard echoing in the woods, and the Tarot card symbolising The Devil is found in the dead man's hand. The murderers are never brought to justice. Leonie's body is never found. October 2007: Meredith Martin arrives at the Domaine de la Cade as part of a research trip. When she stumbles upon an ancient tomb, Meredith finds herself caught up in a race to find the Vernier Tarot and to solve the mystery of Leonie's disappearance without becoming the latest victim herself.

Amazing Grace
In the Ritz-Carlton ballroom in San Francisco a glittering, celebrity-studded crowd gathers for a charity dinner dance. The evening is perfect - until, just minutes before midnight, the room begins to sway. Glass shatters. People begin to scream. In the earthquake's aftermath, the lives of four strangers - Sarah Sloane, the beautiful wife of a financial whiz; Grammy-winning singer Melanie Free; photographer Everett Carson; and Sister Maggie Kent, a nun who normally works with the homeless - will converge. And as the city staggers back to life, a chain reaction of extraordinary events will touch each of the survivors, as each discovers the unexpected gifts in the wake of a tragedy - and the amazing grace of new beginnings.

A Hidden Life
When wealthy Constance Barrington dies, her family gather eagerly to hear the reading of her Will. What follows shocks them all. Constance altered her Will shortly before her death; some family members benefit hugely and others hardly at all. Constance's granddaughter, Louise, is bequeathed the copyright for her late grandfather's novels, long out of print. It is a paltry inheritance. Soon, old family feuds and long-hidden resentments come to the surface and secrets start to emerge. But it is through Louise's inheritance - those dusty, longforgotten books - that the most explosive secret of all will come to light.
