A high-stakes treasure hunt plunges Nancy into a sea of danger…and murder. In Key West, Nancy sets sail on the Lady Jane in search of a wrecked Spanish galleon.

Is murder always a simple transaction? Don't bank on it. Sadie Walela's life is about to be turned upside down. One morning Sadie unlocks the door at the Mercury Savings Bank and confronts a robber who's been lying in wait for her and her fellow employees. He flees after stealing money and killing her coworker. When a whirlwind of events leaves Sadie herself under suspicion, she sets out to clear her name. This banker turned sleuth is suddenly plunged into an unfamiliar world in which people are not always as they appear-not her employer, not the homeless man she's befriended, not the police officer who takes an interest in the case, not the man she falls in love with. And, as she's beginning to imagine, not even herself. Sadie is a blue-eyed Cherokee living in northeastern Oklahoma, a half-blood who finds she sometimes has to adapt to get by in the white man's world, much as her father's ancestors did. In this story of robbery, murder, love, and intrigue, she faces adversity at each bend in the road, but in the tradition of her people she adapts and moves forward—even if it means having to re-think her relationships and expectations. Set against the backdrop of small-town Oklahoma and its Native culture, Deception on All Accounts draws readers into the real lives of contemporary American Indians as it shines a light on violence, corporate corruption, and prejudice in modern America. As Sadie Walela comes to terms with murder, romance, and her hopes for a career, she finds deception on all accounts.

New York Times bestseller: Miami attorneys Gail Connor and Anthony Quintana are back in action in this “complex, involving tale” (Booklist). Now running her own private law practice, Gail has taken on the Miami Opera as her first client. The company’s newest young star—who is set to take the lead in Mozart’s Don Giovanni—recently performed in Castro’s Cuba. And while the Opera’s board of directors couldn’t care less, Miami’s Cuban community could make a great deal of trouble for all involved. To Gail, it seems more like a case for a PR specialist than a lawyer. But she soon discovers that the Opera’s problems may threaten to expose a secret hidden in the history of Cuban emigration to Miami. It’s a secret someone is killing to keep, and a deadly conspiracy that leads Gail to the most unlikely of suspects: her fiancé Anthony Quintana.
