1100s – SEASON OF THE RAVEN (A Servant of the Crown Mystery) – Denise Domning
Sir Faucon de Ramis, the shire’s first Crowner, must make an official declaration of the cause of a miller’s death. But first he must thread the tangled relationships between the sheriff, the village of Priors Holston and the priory that once ruled it. As a simple task takes a turn to the political, what seems obvious isn’t and what appears safe turns out to be more dangerous than he could imagine.

1300s – THE CROWN IN THE HEATHER (The Bruce Trilogy) – N. Gemini Sasson
Robert the Bruce faces love, betrayal and unlikely alliances in his rebellious bid for the empty throne of Scotland. But freedom, throne and wife together are not so easily won. Keeping his crown against Edward Longshanks’ son and new King of England — even with the aid of the brilliant James Douglas — may mean giving up what Robert loves most: his beloved Elizabeth de Burgh.

1800s – A STORM HITS VALPARAISO – David Gaughran
The Spanish Empire holds South America firmly in its grasp. Only a ragtag force of adventurers, mercenaries and prostitutes would be fool enough to make a bid for freedom: two brothers torn apart by love; a slave running for his life; a disgraced British sailor seeking redemption; and José de San Martín, an Argentine general who deserts the Spanish Army to lead a bloody revolt against his former masters.
