I sent my oldest baby basset, who is in the sixth grade, to help his younger brother’s 5th grade math homework. This is one of the perks to having kids so close together. The oldest can help the younger one with math. Mom is taking a break! Five minutes later my oldest comes back says, “I can’t help him. It’s New Math” Wait.. what? No son. When I was growing up it was New Math, you have Common Core. Also known as Nightmare Math. Now go help your brother. My oldest son then said, “Fine, he is doing New New New Math and I don’t get it.” You mean to tell me that my oldest son’s math skills are already obsolete? After twenty hours of trying to help my son with his math homework last night, I finally broke. The last thing I remember is my sweet boy rubbing my back telling me that it’s okay and I will get it. It just takes a little practice. I need a cookie.

Chase Baker is a true Renaissance Man. He’s also a man who knows how to find trouble. A part-time resident of Florence, Italy, his resume reads like a modern day Da Vinci or Casanova. Writer, private investigator, tour guide, historian, treasure hunter, adventurer, and even archaeological sandhog, Chase is also a prolific lover. Unfortunately for him, his dangerous liaisons all too often make him the target of a jealous husband.
Now, at the direct request of the Florence police, he finds himself on the trail of an archaeologist by the name of Dr. Andre Manion who’s gone missing from his teaching post at the American University.
But having worked for the archaeologist several years ago as a sandhog on a secret but failed dig just outside the Great Pyramids in the Giza Plateau, Chase smells a renewed opportunity to uncover what, for some, just might be the most prized archaeological treasure in the world: The mortal remains of Jesus. But then, how can that be when Jesus rose from the dead and entered into heaven, body and soul?
But how will Chase Baker go about solving the mystery of finding both the archaeologist and the Jesus Remains?
With the help of Manion’s beautiful ex-wife, Chase will manage to secure an up-close and personal examination of the Shroud of Turin, not only to view the famous image of the crucified Christ, but to unlock the relic’s greatest secret which is none other than a map, or a key, detailing the precise location of Jesus’s body. It’s a mission that will test Chase’s faith in both himself and God.
A romantic, action-packed, and thrilling conspiracy mystery…

Feisty Fortune Teller Extraordinaire Nana Vianu says the answer is in the cards. How right she is!
Nana’s granddaughter, Mallory Vianu, is busy hosting a blogging conference at Caravan Manor when she hears back from a local historian who’s translated the fifty-five-year-old diary Mallory found in the manor’s attic; the translation uncovers information about a set of original tarot cards Mallory’s great-grandmother, a Roma witch-wife, used to divine the future. Unfortunately, unlike her powerful relative, Mallory doesn’t see what’s coming next. The historian dies, taking the whereabouts of the heirloom to her grave.
To make things worse, one of the conference guests is murdered, and the detective’s eyes are on Mallory — whether she’s a suspect or girlfriend material remains to be seen. Suspicions really heat up when they discover the historian’s death was also no accident. Now, with two lethal murders connected to the manor, and to their diary in particular, the Vianu girls must put their paranormal skills to the test. While hosting breakout sessions and parties for writers, digital creatives, and influencers, they search for the greatest treasure and take clues from a ghost.
But the closer they get to the truth, the closer they get to a killer, someone who looks a lot more like one of them than they realized.
