Rena Black – The Last Countess of Caerhaven
Four governesses have already fled Caerhaven Keep, but disgraced Sophie Lane has nowhere else to go. Hired to care for a grieving earl’s silent daughter, Sophie discovers that the dead countess may not be the only secret haunting the crumbling house above the Cornish sea.

A Case of the Missing Prince is the second book in the Evie Chambers Mysteries series and available exclusively in this box set.

The case may be cold, but what if the prince isn’t? It’s up to Evie and Al to find him.

Crown Prince Stanislav Drulivic is missing. The thirty-five-year old heir to the Kingdom of Zobora, located in the Carpathian Mountains on the border of Poland and Slovakia, an area rich in mineral deposits, vanished four months ago on a hiking/mountain climbing trip to Alberta. There was a rockslide at his last known locale, and two climbers were killed while many others were injured, including four of his friends traveling with him, but no one has seen hide nor hair of the missing royal since that day.

People disappear for a number of reasons, but when the missing person is next in line for the throne, foul play can’t be ignored. The authorities claim they’ve recovered all the bodies, but if he walked away from the slide, where is he now? With the family offering a huge financial incentive for answers, the job seems to be right up Evie’s alley, but there’s a catch—there’s always a catch.

In order to get the job, she has to include two Zoborans on her team: Viktor Opole, a security guard, and Baron Petrov Bukowski, a close friend of the missing prince. There’s something about the two men that doesn’t sit well with her. Al Binette, the former Navy Seal and Parks Canada employee who saved her life on her last case and brought love back into it, agrees to join her and watch her back once more.

While this new case is filled with intrigue and contradictions, it’s a cold one that defies explanation and will take every ounce of the savvy detective’s reasoning and investigative skills to solve.

Accidents can happen to anyone, anytime, anywhere, but how many times can Evie cheat death?

Grab this latest book in the series and enjoy it along with four other fantastic mysteries. A great way to spend your vacation! This e-book is available from many retalers including Apple, Kobo, and others, as well as all online Amazon stores.

Hi! I live in Eastern Ontario. I'm married with three adult children and five wonderful grandchildren. I prefer warm weather, and sunshine but winter gives me time to write. If I’m listening to music, it will be something from the 1960s or 1970s. I enjoy action movies, romantic comedies, but I draw the line at slasher flicks and horror. I love science fiction and fantasy as well. I love to read; I immerse myself in the text and, as my husband says, the house could fall down around me, and I’d never notice. My preferences are as varied as there are genres, but nothing really beats a good romance, especially one that is filled with suspense. I love historical romance too, and have read quite a few of those. If I’m watching television, you can count on it being a suspense — I’m not a fan of reality TV, sit-coms, or game shows. Writing gives me the most pleasure. I love creating characters that become real and undergo all kinds of adventures. It never ceases to amaze me how each character can take on its own unique personality; sometimes, they grow very different from the way I pictured them! Inspiration comes from all around me; imagination has no bounds. If I can think it, imagine it, I can write it!
