Peril Off Padre
Available from your favorite bookseller:

Carolyn Hart is best known for her cozy mysteries – the Death on Demand, Bailey Ruth Raeburn, and Henrie O books—but long before she captured readers with those bestsellers, she wrote stand-alone suspense novels. Peril Off Padre is the first of her thrilling suspense tales for adults.
More than one soul has been lost along with the long-forgotten treasure that hides beneath the waters off Padre Island. Whether propelled by curiosity, determination, or greed, no one – not soldier, priest, or fortune hunter-- is immune to the lure of wealth. When desire turns to obsession, murder inevitably follows.
High Stakes
When aspiring actress Kirsten Soderstrom is offered the role of a lifetime, she knows it won’t lead to an Oscar. This is not a Hollywood production, but rather an improvisational opportunity directed by a powerful government agency and starring a cast of international killers. She is more than happy to help keep her country safe, but when the plot turns, Kirsten becomes a target for the KGB, the CIA, and the FBI … and not even she knows whether she is cast as hero or villain.

Cry in the Night
Cry in the Night
The national bestselling author of What the Cat Saw delivers an all-new mystery of intrigue and danger in the shadowy world of international art theft.
Egyptologist Sheila Ramsay develops a newfound interest in MesoAmerican affairs after meeting an outspoken—and attractive—Mexico City curator, a harsh critic of museums that deal in stolen art. And her own museum gives her the perfect opportunity to see him again: a valuable Aztec manuscript needs to be returned to its rightful owners, the wealthy Ortega family.
But things don’t go as planned for Sheila south of the border. An anonymous note threatens her with death if she remains in Mexico City. The curator she longed to see treats her with contempt. And the Ortegas are as mysterious as they are charming. What Sheila has stumbled into is much bigger—and more deadly—than she ever dreamed. And amid the splendor of Mexico’s ancient ruins and treacherous hillsides, Sheila will realize that there’s no one she can trust... -- From The Best Reviews
