A terrorist at the Moscow Film Festival plots an international incident …

Built in the twilight of the Tsarist state, Moscow's Metropole Hotel is a poignant reminder of the decadence of the last regime. But today its corridors are musty, its rooms are dank, and now its restaurant is the scene of a quadruple murder. Four men — one American, one Japanese, and two citizens of Mother Russia — share a meal of smoked salmon, caviar, and two bottles of vodka. In the morning, all are found dead, blood on their lips and faces contorted in pain.

To keep the killings under wraps, the Kremlin hands the investigation over to famously discreet police investigator Porfiry Rostnikov. A terrorist is targeting foreigners to embarrass the Soviet state, and the killer will happily sacrifice any Russian who gets in the way.

For a decade, Emma and her grandfather have been trailing a thief whose first heist was an ancient Celtic cross. Since then, the Sharpes receive a replica after every new theft — reminding them of their failure to capture their prey.

As the danger escalates, the couple faces questions about their relationship. Can they give their hearts and souls to their work and have anything left for each other? Before they can focus on their future, they must outwit one of the smartest, most ruthless killers they've ever encountered.

False Tongues by Kate Charles, New in Bookstores during April 2015

Today's featured new hardcover mystery, suspense, or thriller title scheduled to be published during April 2015 is …

False Tongues by Kate Charles, a Callie Anson Mystery (4th in series)

Publisher: Poisoned Pen Press

    

The Reverend Callie Anson should have learned her lesson by now: revisiting the past is seldom a good idea. But she succumbs to peer pressure and attends a reunion at her theological college in Cambridge, where she is forced to confront painful memories — and the presence of her clueless ex, Adam.

Margaret Phillips, the Principal of the college, has a chance for happiness but before she can grasp it she has to deal with her own ghosts — as well as corrosive, intrusive gossip. Both Margaret and Callie learn something about themselves, and about forgiveness, from wise retired priest John Kingsley.

Meanwhile, in London, police officers Neville Stewart and Mark Lombardi are involved with the latest stabbing of a teenager. Was the victim — gifted, popular schoolboy Sebastian Frost — all he seemed to be, or was there something in his life that led inevitably to his death? The police find themselves plunged into the queasy world of cyber-bullying, where nothing may be as it seems.

While they're apart, Callie and Mark's relationship is on hold, and his Italian family continues to be an issue. Will Mark realize, before it's too late, that while his family will always be important to him, he is entitled to something for himself?

— False Tongues by Kate Charles

Agent Undercover by Lisa Childs

Series: Special Agents of the Altar

Imprint: Intrigue

  

She's wanted by unknown assailants, the government … and the man sworn to protect her …

A man like FBI special agent Ash Stryker would never be caught dead at a speed-dating event. But that's where he tracks down Claire Molenski, a computer programmer suspected of selling government information. When he rescues her from a botched kidnapping, he realizes not only that she's innocent, but also that the only way to protect her is to pose as her boyfriend.

Claire knows that their relationship is a ruse. Once the case is closed, she'll never see Ash again, and that scares her almost as much as the abduction attempts. But the way he acts toward her makes her wonder just how much of an act their relationship really is. And if she'll be able to survive long enough to find out.

When Hannah Conti shows up at Grace Smith's office, little does the wise-cracking PI know how dark a path her newest case will take her down …

Alison Wynne-Ellis was just sixteen when she was convicted of the brutal stabbing of her teacher Trudy Hepburn, before giving birth to Hannah and putting her up for adoption. Hannah wants Grace to prove her biological mother's innocence — for a murder committed twenty years before. Why did Alison never try to prove her own innocence? Alison may have been the prime suspect, but who else could have wanted quiet, cowardly Trudy Hepburn dead?

Grace starts digging up some dark truths about the pupils of Alison's old school, while fending off offers of help from an officer who worked on the original case, Declan O'Hara. Grace doesn't want or need a partner to share her investigation with. But what does O'Hara want, and why is he only trying to help Alison now? And who is threatening Grace with some very nasty scare tactics as she delves deeper into both Alison and Trudy's pasts?

With the threats escalating from a rat nailed to the PI's front door to a near miss with a bullet, will Grace solve Trudy Hepburn's murder before someone tries to silence her forever?
