A Game of Hearts & Knives

Book 2
Chaos follows them - even across the sea.

Florence Lancaster never wanted a vacation. But after the bloodied end of the Queen of Hearts case, New York seemed like a chance to breathe.

That was the first mistake.

What begins with a disastrous voyage, stolen recipes, and far too many scones quickly unravels into something darker. A sabotaged ship. A man with initials that lead to nowhere.

And as the streets of New York tighten with secrets, Florence must face shadows from the past, enemies she can't outrun, and one terrible truth - Not every monster wears a mask.

With sarcasm as sharp as her knife and allies who bicker as well as they fight, Florence is ready for another deadly game.
But this time, it's about family.

Perfect for readers who love sharp-tongued detectives, tangled mysteries, and a dash of slow-burn chaos, A Game of Hearts & Knives is a witty, bloodstained ride through 1850s New York.
