In the summer of 1935, a nasty career criminal by the name of George Barrett shot to death a young FBI agent beside a flower garden in the little town of College Corner, which sat astraddle the state line between Ohio and Indiana. Indeed, when the shooting occurred, Barrett fired from Indiana and the agent fell dead in Ohio. It was only one peculiarity of the case of Barrett vs. J. Edgar Hoover's fledgling agency as it struggled for supremacy over the rampaging criminal elements of the chaotic 1930s. The case made national headlines for a number of reasons: the Cincinnati agent, Nelson Klein, was the first FBI agent to be killed in the line of duty; his killer, Barrett, a one-time Kentucky moonshiner who had killed his own mother, was only the second man tried under a new federal statute that made the murder of a government agent a federal offenseand the first to be executed.

Once he was a Scottish nobleman with everything to live for. Now he is Will Malfour, an outlaw pursued by the English king’s soldiers. With nothing but bitter memories of the Culloden massacre and his burning hunger for revenge, he roams the seas, taking from his enemies what they stole from him. But the ship he just seized holds an unexpected prize: a willful, captivating beauty who is the daughter of a British invader. Rumored to carry the mark of the devil, Lady Jeanette Campbell is forced to leave Scotland to become the bride of a man she has never met. But en route to Barbados, her ship is fired on, and she is taken prisoner. Captain Will Malfour is as black-hearted as Satan himself, yet surprisingly gentle with two young stowaways. How the children got aboard is a mystery. So is the wild Scot turned privateer who awakens in her such irresistible desire. With the odds stacked against them—and their lives at risk—Jenna fights for the future and a love she never expected to find. The Diamond King is the 3rd book in the Scottish Trilogy, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
