A deadly poisoning. A stolen Irish painting. A criminal mastermind at work.

Rival’s Break, they latest Sharpe & Donovan suspense novel, will be out in paperback on July 28! I’m excited, and I know many readers have been waiting for the paperback edition.

The story takes place on the southern Maine coast in Autumn. After a grueling few weeks apart art crimes expert Emma Sharpe and undercover agent Colin Donovan are home for a family wedding…but it’s anything but a quiet weekend when Colin discovers an MI5 undercover officer near death aboard a yacht moored nearby and his and Emma’s friend, Irish priest Finian Bracken, has two unexpected guests from England…

New to Sharpe & Donovan? The series launched in 2011 with Saint’s Gate. Emma Sharpe, an FBI art crimes expert, discovers the body of a nun at her former convent on the coast of Maine…and meets rugged undercover FBI agent Colin Donovan.
