DIVThe Swap is "full of page-by-page surprises" –Kirkus Reviews "a hold-onto-the-bar roller coaster of a mystery" –RT Book Reviews When Nicole Graves arranges a summer-long swap of her Los Angeles condo for a London couple's house, she thinks it's the perfect arrangement. She's always dreamed of seeing the real London; she's also hopeful the time away with her husband Brad will be good for their troubled marriage. But things don't turn out the way Nicole expects: The Londoners fail to arrive in L.A. and appear to be missing. Then people begin following Nicole and making threats, demanding information she doesn't have. Soon, Nicole realizes she's in serious trouble––but she can't get Brad or the police to believe her. When the confrontations turn deadly, Nicole must either solve the case or become the next victim. Winner of the Eric Hoffer Award — Best Micro Press Book of the Year The Bequest Nicole Graves, still reeling from her London kidnapping in The Swap, is struggling to balance work at L.A.'s most prestigious law firm and a long-distance romance with her English lover. Things go sideways when she tracks down a missing colleague. The murder of the firm's in-house investigator, his mysterious wealth, and his inexplicable bequest make Nicole a target for the police, the paparazzi, and the killer. When Nicole's life takes an unexpected turn, she uncovers evil and corruption among the city's most powerful people. The fast-paced mystery unravels against the backdrop of L.A. with its peculiar mix of balmy weather, the celebrity-crazed media, and a corrupt power structure hidden by the veneer of glamour and wealth. Liar Liar As a newly minted private investigator, Nicole Graves expects to take on legal cases for corporate clients. But when her client's son, Brad Rexton, is killed trying to protect his wife, Ashley, from a home invasion-turned-kidnapping, the firm is hired to investigate. Nicole soon discovers that Ashley is not the person she claims to:"Nicole Graves is the best fictional sleuth to come down the pike since Sue Grafton's Kinsey Millhone." Laura Levine, author of the popular Jaine Austen Mysteries The Nicole Graves Mysteries have been compared to Mary Higgins Clark, and are praised for contributing to the "women-driven mystery field with panache" (Foreword Reviews) as well as for their "hold-onto-the-bar roller coaster," plots (RT Book Reviews) with "adventures both nightmarish and dreamy" (Kirkus Reviews). The Swap (Book 1) "Mary Higgins Clark meets London" Foreword Reviews When Nicole Graves arranges a summer-long swap of her Los Angeles condo for a London couple's house, she thinks it's the perfect arrangement, but instead she finds she's accidentally stumbled into an international drug ring. The Bequest (Book 2) "Boyarsky's weightless complications expertly combine menace with bling, making the heroine's adventures both nightmarish and dreamy." Kirkus Reviews When Nicole's life takes an unexpected turn with an unwelcome inheritance, she uncovers evil and corruption among the city's most powerful people. Liar Liar (Book 3) "Boyarsky's imagination serves up a court case that plays with expectations during an era where we push to believe women, resulting in some real bad baddies whom it feels good to root against."

Book Description
Four old friends confront their darkest secrets in this fantasy steeped in nostalgia, folklore, religion, and the seductive landscape of Southern Italy—by the Italian Neil Gaiman. “A tale of adventure, mystery, friendship and heart-wrenching beauty that will make you re-examine what is holy, what is true, and what is beyond the realm of possibility.” —BookPage Four old school friends have a pact: to meet up every year in the small town in Puglia they grew up in. Art, the charismatic leader of the group and creator of the pact, insists that the agreement must remain unshakable and enduring. But this year, he never shows up. A visit to his house increases the friends’ worry: Art is farming marijuana. In Southern Italy doing that kind of thing can be very dangerous. They can’t go to the Carabinieri so must make enquiries of their own. This is how they come across the rumors about Art—bizarre and unbelievable rumors that he miraculously cured the local mafia boss’ daughter of terminal leukemia. And among the chaos of his house, they find a document written by Art, “The Book of Hidden Things”, that promises to reveal dark secrets and wonders beyond anything previously known. Set in the beguiling and seductive world of Southern Italy, Francesco Dimitri’s first novel in English is a story friendship, landscape, love, betrayal, and mystery that will entrance fans of Elena Ferrante, Neil Gaiman, and Donna Tartt.
