Turn Them Up To Ten

ALL FOUR JILL McLEOD CALIFORNIA ZEPHYR MYSTERIES IN A BOX SET.

Zephyrette Jill McLeod is armed with good instincts and her knowledge of human nature, skills that serve her well when murder rides the train.

DEATH RIDES THE ZEPHYR

A COLD-BLOODED KILLER. A COLD, REMOTE CANYON. A MURDERED PASSENGER.

Zephyrette Jill McLeod spends her working days answering questions, taking dinner reservations, or providing first aid. She can usually solve any problem. But she wasn’t counting on a missing passenger — and a body in a sleeper car.

DEATH DEALS A HAND

WHO GETS THE DEAD MAN’S HAND? A HIGH-STAKES POKER GAME. DEATH HAS A SEAT AT THE TABLE.

Zephyrette Jill McLeod is back on the rails, riding the sleek silver streamliner west from Chicago to San Francisco. She can deal with almost anything, from an unexpected reunion with a long-lost relative to a troublesome passenger who likes to play poker — and has a shady past.

THE GHOST IN ROOMETTE FOUR

A GHOST ABOARD THE CALIFORNIA ZEPHYR?

Zephyrette Jill McLeod tells herself that shimmering light couldn’t possibly be a ghost. She doubts the evidence of her own eyes. But she can’t explain it. Does it have something to do with that body Jill found two months ago?

DEATH ABOVE THE LINE

LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION — MURDER.

Jill McLeod is playing a Zephyrette in a film noir. Dark conflicts swirl around cast and crew. A studio executive’s visit brings hidden emotions boiling into view.

In 1099, the armies of Christendom march for Jerusalem. Mercenary captain Robert Cutnose finds himself in the belly of a siege tower waiting to storm the walls in a desperate attempt to take the city.

But what they find inside the city is far more terrifying than the arrows and spears that fly their way…

After a savage attack by the moonlight, Cutnose’s lifeblood leaks from his veins, and he is thrust into an immortal war between the Order and their prey they simply call the Hunted. Each desires to own a relic with power far greater than he could ever imagine. With the aid of a secretive party of warriors, he must track down the man who ripped out his throat in the blink of an eye, for if he does not, his future as a human will be short.

As he crawls deeper into the shadows, it is clear, only oaths made in blood survive.

Drew Milton thought he had left January Cove for good, building a successful career in New York City. But when his father is injured, Drew returns home to help run the family’s beloved ice cream shop, Sprinkles. What he doesn’t expect is to confront old memories and lingering heartache tied to his high school love, Kate.

Meanwhile, Cat Morgan, a physical therapist from Whiskey Ridge, arrives in January Cove for a fresh start, taking on a job to help Drew’s father recover. Cat is determined to prove herself, but the more time she spends with the Milton family — and with Drew — the harder it becomes to focus solely on her work.

As sparks fly between Drew and Cat, both must face their pasts and decide if they’re ready for the future, or if their hearts are still waiting for something — or someone — else.

Waiting For You is a heartwarming story of healing, family, and unexpected love in the small-town charm of January Cove.
