Book #1

Brilliant, quirky twenty-three-year-old China Mack is totally satisfied with her carefully ordered, data-driven life. A computer prodigy who landed a coveted programming job at the cutting-edge tech company Cysnet before even graduating from MIT, China is happiest when following her routine: shower before coffee, pizza only on Mondays, bedtime at ten thirty sharp.

But then things start to get a little...unpredictable.

First Jackson Cooper--Cysnet's rich, gorgeous, genius CEO--assigns China to a dangerous and highly classified project for a government defense contractor. Her sixteen-year-old runaway niece suddenly arrives in town, begging to move in with China. And then there's her sexy but oddly unsettling new neighbor, Clark...

Quickly the Cysnet assignment becomes disconcerting--and then downright scary--as key staffers turn up dead. China suspects she's being followed and isn't sure whom she can trust. For the first time ever, she'll have to follow her instincts, rather than logic, if she's going to survive.

Hollywood, 1978 Tragedy sends troubled film star Vivien Lockhart into the arms of Giovanni Moretti--and it seems her fortunes have finally changed. Until she meets his sister and learns that her new husband's past holds dark secrets...Tuscany, Present day Lucy Whittaker needs to disappear. But her new home, the crumbling Castillo Barbarossa, is far from the secluded paradise it seemed. Strange sounds come from the attic. The owner of the house will never meet her in person. The fountain in the courtyard is silent--but has never run dry. Across the decades, Vivien and Lucy find themselves trapped in the idyllic Italian villa. And if they are ever to truly escape its walls, they must first unearth its secrets.

The chipped pink nail polish is a dead giveaway-no pun intended. When a human thumb is discovered near a Hollywood nightclub, it doesn't take long for the police to identify its owner. Miss Penny Harp would recognize that pink anywhere: it belongs to her best friend, Rosemary. And so does the rest of the body buried beneath it. Rosemary, with the beauty and talent, who stood out from all other extras on the Paramount lot. She was the one whose name was destined for a movie marquee-not for the obituaries. And for an extra twist, now an LAPD detective thinks Penny is the one who killed her. Penny is determined to prove her innocence-with a little help from an unlikely ally, the world-famous queen of film noir, Barbara Stanwyck.
