An M T Mystery Box Set

The Dead Letters - In the Atlanta dead-letter office, a series of odd letters began to arrive from Seattle. The envelopes were addressed simply to "sister" with no address or return address and inside, the letters were signed by someone who called herself, Princess. Yet, the contents of the letters seemed to be a cry for help, and soon it became Natalie's obsession to find her. For that she needed the help of a detective – a very handsome detective named Daniel. The Locked Room - The last thing Colette Bouchard wanted was to go back to the small town that hated her almost as much as she hated it. Yet when her father passed away it was up to her to settle his affairs. She fully intended to arrange his funeral, sell everything, and then leave town – after, of course, she got a good look at what was in the bedroom her father forbid her to enter. Love and Suspicion - When Tiffany Clark's car broke down and she was forced to walk to a nearly deserted small town in Iowa, the only person she found was an old man who had not spoken to anyone in years. She soon learned he could speak, he just didn't, and the reason had to do with the town's shocking and scandalous unsolved mystery.

At not quite fifteen, Stefan's father finally let him board the longship, Sja Vinna, to take part in his first Viking raid. Yet, the battle was not at all what he expected, and he soon found himself alone and stranded in Scotland. Thirteen-year-old Kannak's situation was just as grave. Her father deserted them and the only way to survive, she decided, was to take a husband over her mother's objections. Instead, she found herself hiding a hated Viking, and that wasn't the only problem - someone was plotting to kill the clan's beloved laird.

Seattle Quake 9.2 - They knew it could happen - scientists had been warning them for years. Yet, nearly two million people living in the greater Seattle area went about their daily lives as usual. A Detective Agency thought they had found a missing woman, an upstart radio station was on the air, and an eccentric banker had just started a round of golf. Thousands were driving on freeways, shopping in malls, awaiting flights, working in downtown high-rises, and on buses in the bus tunnel. They knew -- they just didn't believe it could happen to them. Missing Heiress - The Harlan Detective Agency was the best there was when it came to finding missing people. They were also the most expensive, so it was no coincidence that they were hired to find the heir to a fortune totaling over 1.6 billion dollars. Nicholas Gladstone left everything to a granddaughter he didn't know he had until a week before he died, but which one was it - the maid secretly working in the parent's home, an office worker, or the young woman tragically killed in a car accident? Greed and a Mistress - Mark Barrett thought having an affair was no big deal as long as his wife didn't find out. That was before he got arrested for the hit-style murder of a wealthy old woman. What drew the Jackie Harlan Detective Agency to the fascinating trial in Portland, Oregon was the hope of finding a child that had been missing for years.

In this witty and romantic series, idealistic young Bow Street Runner and former pickpocket John Pickett, age twenty-four, meets beautiful widow Julia, Lady Fieldhurst quite literally over her husband’s dead body. The two are destined to cross paths again and again.

Fate intervenes when she and her paramour enter her bedchamber and find Lord Fieldhurst on the floor—with her nail scissors protruding from his neck. Idealistic young Bow Street Runner John Pickett has spent most of his brief career chasing petty thieves. Nothing has prepared him for low dealings in high society…or for the beautiful young widow who is the chief suspect. A DEAD BORE Eager to escape the scandal of her husband's death, Lady Fieldhurst accepts an invitation to a house party. When a dinner party ends with the death of the vicar, she suspects murder and sends for John Pickett. He obliges by presenting himself as her footman, complete with livery and powdered hair. But he soon has his white-gloved hands full sifting through old secrets, uncovering hidden passions, and dealing with a demanding housekeeper. Then there is the problem of Lady Fieldhurst, at once an able assistant and an all-too-pleasant distraction. FAMILY PLOT John Pickett accompanies his magistrate to Scotland to investigate a woman found unconscious on the beach—a woman who bears a striking resemblance to the local laird’s daughter, missing and presumed dead for the last fifteen years. Pickett is surprised and gratified to discover that the woman was found by Lady Fieldhurst and her young nephews—and that she has registered at the seaside inn as Mrs. Julia Pickett. When old Angus Kirkbride dies only hours after announcing his intention of changing his will, “Mr. and Mrs. Pickett” must discover the truth about a lethal family reunion. DINNER MOST DEADLY When Lady Fieldhurst returns from Scotland blue-deviled, her friend Lady Dunnington plans a select dinner from whose guests she may choose a lover. But the evening ends in disaster when one of the men is shot. When Bow Street Runner John Pickett arrives to investigate, he is faced with the task of informing Lady Fieldhurst that their recent masquerade as man and wife has resulted in a legal marriage. Beset by distractions—including the humiliating annulment procedure and the flattering attentions of a pretty housemaid—Pickett must find the killer of a man everyone wanted dead. TOO HOT TO HANDEL When Drury Lane Theatre is plagued with jewel thefts, John Pickett goes incognito as a “gentleman” to investigate. His magistrate suggests an aristocratic female companion might prevent him from making any glaring faux pas, but the only lady Pickett knows is Julia, Lady Fieldhurst—to whom he is accidentally married, and with whom he is hopelessly in love. Then the theatre catches fire, and the pair must escape their box via a makeshift rope. When Pickett is struck in the head and left unconscious, Julia is determined to nurse him back to health and to discover his attacker. But can she walk away afterward?
