Synopsis
Young Alexia Erskine is swept up into a glamorous world that she hardly knew existed when she attends the first debutante ball of the Season. As the guest of the Clifton family, Alexia first encounters Simon Seymour, dashing heir to the Earl of Clifton, and his rather more serious handsome cousin, Roderick Davenport. Her relationship with Simon develops, culminating in an engagement that shocks the Clifton set, for Alexia is a nobody whose father gambled away his fortune. But after the honeymoon, Alexia begins to realise that nothing is as it seems, and the image of a happy, aristocratic family living in contented splendour is all smoke and mirrors . . .Latest Additions

Herring on the Nile - L. C. Tyler
In an effort to rejuvenate his flagging career, novelist Ethelred Tressider embarks on a "research trip" to Egypt. No sooner has the cruise on the Nile begun, however, than events quickly unravel: an attempt is made on Ethelred's life; the boat's engine explodes, and a passenger is found murdered. As the boat drifts out of control, suspicion falls on everyone aboard - including Ethelred.
