Walkout by Jason McIntyre

Walkout is by the author of the #1 Kindle Suspense, The Night Walk Men

Gavin is a wealthy and demanding investment banker, the sort of power-hungry, driven man those in the professional world don't question. When a beautiful young woman finds herself entangled with Gavin following his divorce of a year ago, things aren't exactly as they first seemed. Now, nearing the end of an icy winter, she's living in his luxurious home in a rich neighborhood just north of the sprawling city. She's washing his sheets and tending to his every whim…but a mysterious boat house on the property calls to her and, in time, she may not be able to stop herself from answering.

Snobbery with Violenceby M. C. Beaton

When a marriage proposal appears imminent for the beautiful — if rebellious — Lady Rose Summer, her father wants to know if her suitor’s intentions are honorable. He calls on Captain Harry Cathcart, the impoverished younger son of a baron, to do some intelligence work on the would-be fiancee, Sir Geoffrey Blandon.

After his success in uncovering Geoffrey’s dishonorable motives, Harry fashions a career out of “fixing” things for wealthy aristocrats. So when the Marquess of Hedley finds one of his guests dead at a lavish house party, he knows just the man to call.

But when Harry is caught between his client’s desire for discretion and his suspicion that murder may indeed have been committed, he enlists the help of Superintendent Kerridge of the Scotland Yard and Lady Rose, also a guest at Lord Hedley’s.

Set in Britain and the Edwardian world of parties, servants, and scandal, M. C. Beaton’s Snobbery with Violence is a delightful combination of murderous intrigue and high society.
