Description
Darryl Martel A Novel of Secrets, Scandal, and a Countess Who Refused to Disappear
Lady Felicia Montague was born into scandal, raised in silence, and married into diplomacy. A daughter of recusant Catholic aristocracy, she learned early to navigate the world not through obedience, but through charm, cleverness, and unapologetic defiance.
By all appearances, she lived the life expected of a countess: stately, serene, socially untouchable. But behind the gloves and the pearls was a woman restless for purpose and reckless enough to find it in murder investigations, wartime secrets, and the quiet power of being underestimated.
From the manicured grounds of Montague Hall to the fractured shadows of colonial Africa, Felicia walks a line between loyalty and truth, between the weight of legacy and the freedom of reinvention. Alongside a disarmingly perceptive priest, a reformed thief in a battered cap, and a niece who mirrors her in ways she's only beginning to understand, she becomes something more than her title.
She becomes a force.
But every force meets resistance. When betrayal strikes from within her own marriage, and ghosts from her past return with blood on their hands, Felicia must choose: retreat into the role written for her or become the author of her own story.
The Lady of Montague Hall is a sweeping, character-rich historical mystery about identity, survival, and the courage it takes to become someone you were never allowed to be.

The Green Collar of Sid Carter.
A Novel of Sid Carter
Sid Carter has never been one to follow rules, he grew up dodging the law in the alleys of Shepherd's Bush, running scams before he could shave, and learning fast that trust is a currency too expensive to spend. A streetwise fixer with a motor under his hands and a crooked smile under his hat, Sid drifts from petty crime to chauffeur work, eventually landing in the quiet English village of Kembleford.
But Kembleford has secrets of its own and when murder, blackmail, and smuggling hit the countryside, it's Sid's connections to the criminal world that make him invaluable to Father Brown, the village priest who sees past Sid's past and into the man he could become.
From prison cells to canal boats, aristocratic estates to church bell towers, The Green Collar follows Sid's long, winding road from street rat to unlikely hero. Caught between the man he was and the man he's trying to be, Sid doesn't always do the right thing, but he always shows up when it matters.
Gripping, character-driven, and rich with period grit, The Green Collar is a story of second chances, found family, and redemption earned one repair job and one unsolved case, at a time.
