Like nearly everyone else in Paradise, Ohio, local laundromat owner and stain-removal expert Josie Toadfern eagerly awaits the upcoming July 4th Founders Day celebration with its highlight, the annual Breitenstrater Pie Company pie-eating content, sponsored by the owners of the town's upper curst enterprise. But things may not be so sweet this year, what with juicy rumors flying that a black sheep Breitenstrater wants to spill the beans about some deep, dark family secret. And when a pie-making bigwig suspiciously drops dead after sampling the company's latest wares, Josie leaps into action.

She loves her teeny-weeny community, despite its blemishes — and any stain on its reputation must be eradicated! But if she sticks her thumb — or her nose — into this particular pastry, she's going to pull our more thank a plum … and she may end up getting her own lethal just desserts.

London, 1599. William Shakespeare is establishing himself as the best playwright in London, and the construction of the Globe is the final piece of the puzzle. The Queen advises Shakespeare to visit the conjurer Dr Dee to help determine the dimensions of the Globe that will ensure it is a success. The Merlin-like Dee shows Shakespeare his Book of Enoch — a supposedly sacred and powerful text written in the language of Adam. Dee's old partner Edward Talbot is rumoured to have passed away abroad — but he is back in Dee's house and refusing to leave without the book.

When Dee dies nine years later, Shakespeare is surprised to find that he has been left the book in Dee's will. But when Shakespeare tries to collect the book from the chaplain Raphael Hawkesworth, he finds him hanged, with the marks on his neck suggesting murder.

Events turn even stranger when Dee's beautiful daughter Miranda, who was reported to have died, appears as submissive wife to the callous gardener Hugo Carteret. Shakespeare quickly falls in love with Miranda, and agrees to join Talbot's mysterious fellowship in return for the Book of Enoch. The group set sail for the Fellowship's home in the Channel Islands, but run into a violent storm and are washed up and scattered ashore. When Shakespeare finds another strangled body of one of the crew and overhears a plot to take his life, he fears he may not get out the island alive …

Deep in the isolated Northwest Territories, four friends are on the trip of a lifetime. Dropped by helicopter into the remote Canadian wilderness, Hutch, Terry, Phil, and David are looking to escape the events of a tumultuous year — a bitter divorce, bankruptcy, depression, and job loss — for two weeks of hunting, fishing, and camping.

Armed only with a bow and arrow and the basics for survival, they've chosen a place far from civilization, a retreat from their turbulent lives. But they quickly discover that another group has targeted the remote region and the secluded hamlet of Fiddler Falls for a more menacing purpose: to field-test the ultimate weapon.

With more than a week before the helicopter rendezvous and no satellite phone, they must risk everything to help the townspeople who are being held hostage and terrorized.

Forensic sculptor Eve Duncan's mission is to bring closure to the families whose loved ones have vanished.

It is only recently that this mystery was resolved and Eve could begin her journey to peace.

Now, Jim Doane wants the same kind of answers that Eve always longed for. His twenty-five-year old son may or may not be dead and he has only burned skull fragments as possible evidence. But he cannot go to the police for answers without risking his own secrets and dark past, so instead he chooses a bold step to find the truth — a truth that takes Eve down a twisted path of madness and evil and into the darkest heart of her own history. Doane needs Eve Duncan's skills and he'll do anything to get them.

Even if it means taking Eve.
