- The Black Swan of Paris [sound recording] / by Robards, Karen,author.; Peterson, Nancy(Audiobook narrator),narrator.; Blackstone Publishing,publisher.; Harlequin Enterprises,publisher.;
Read by Nancy Peterson."A world at war. A beautiful young star. A mission no one expected. Paris, 1944. Celebrated singer Genevieve Dumont is both a star and a smokescreen. An unwilling darling of the Nazis, the chanteuse's position of privilege allows her to go undetected as an ally to the resistance. When her estranged mother, Lillian de Rocheford, is captured by Nazis, Genevieve knows it won't be long before the Gestapo succeeds in torturing information out of Lillian that will derail the upcoming allied invasion. The resistance movement is tasked with silencing her by any means necessary--including assassination. But Genevieve refuses to let her mother become yet one more victim of the war. Reuniting with her long-lost sister, she must find a way to navigate the perilous cross-currents of Occupied France undetected--and in time to save Lillian's life."--

- The Man in Black And Other Stories [electronic resource] : by Griffiths, Elly.aut; cloudLibrary;
From the internationally bestselling author of the Ruth Galloway Mysteries, an eclectic, thrilling collection of short stories, featuring many characters that readers have come to know and love. Elly Griffiths has always written short stories to experiment with different voices and genres as well as to explore what some of her fictional creations such as Ruth Galloway, Harbinder Kaur, and Max Mephisto might have done outside of the novels. The Man in Black gathers these bite-sized tales all together in one splendid volume. There are ghost stories, cozy mysteries, tales of psychological suspense, and poignant vignettes of love and loss. In the title story, Ruth Galloway crosses paths with a mysterious man in a bookstore, setting in motion a rescue mission that hinges on the legends and lore of Norfolk. Looking into the past, a young magician in 1920s Leeds wonders just what happened to his missing landlady in “Max Mephisto and the Disappearing Act.” In “Justice Jones and the Etherphone,” a witty girl detective investigates the dire prediction of a fortune teller in dreary postwar London. A flashback in time reveals Harbinder Kaur as a Detective Sergeant surviving her first day on the job at Shoreham DCI. To celebrate the holidays, Ruth gets her very first Christmas tree, and her beloved cat narrates his own seasonal story in “Flint’s Fireside Tale.” And readers can armchair travel with stories set on the Amalfi Coast, in Capri, and in Egypt as Ruth and DCI Nelson experience their very own version of Death on the Nile. The Man in Black illustrates the breadth and variety of Elly Griffiths’s talent for blood-chilling, page-turning stories all with her trademark humor and heart.

- Black tunnel white magic : a murder, a detective's obsession, and '90s Los Angeles at the brink / by Jackson, Rick,author.; Connelly, Michael,1956-writer of foreword.; McGough, Matthew,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."This is the story of Rick Jackson, a famed LA homicide detective and eventual cold case investigator, and the case that he's never managed to let go. In June 1990, a white male UCLA student was found stabbed to death in a tunnel near the infamous Spahn Ranch, where Charles Manson and his followers had lived. That night, Jackson and his partner, Frank Garcia, were called on the scene and soon focused their investigation on the young man's two male roommates, one Black and one white. Nothing about the case made sense, though- not the relationship between these young men, not the potential influence of Wicca (then a trend among youth, and closely tied to the moral panic around Satanism), not the justice system that tried the two roommates very differently, and not Los Angeles itself, which was and remains a fraught tinderbox of racial bias and violence. In straightforward, matter-of-fact prose, Jackson takes us through the events as he and his partner experienced them, with no foreknowledge of information that would emerge later in the case. Readers will feel as though they are a fly on the wall, piecing together the truth about what happened to Ron Baker as the detectives did themselves, day by day and clue by clue"--
