DI. Marylyn Cassar: The White Tulip Cold Case Book Two

THE CASE WAS CLOSED. THE PAST WASN’T.

The White Tulip case is over. The killer has been identified. The evidence has been gathered.

Detective Inspector Marylyn “Lyn” Cassar should be able to put the case behind her and move on. But some cases refuse to stay buried.

When Professor Doctor Marvin Muscat—the man at the centre of the White Tulip investigation—is found gravely ill in hospital, Lyn is drawn back into a case she thought was finished. Then new evidence emerges from the professor’s garage: jars containing preserved human remains, old files, and clues pointing towards women who disappeared decades ago. The trail leads Lyn deep into Malta’s past. Six unidentified victims. Thirty-five years of unanswered questions. A connection to two long-forgotten murders. And a white tulip that has been appearing where it should never be.

As Lyn and her team reopen the old cases, forensic evidence begins to give names to the dead. But the investigation soon reaches beyond the police, drawing the attention of a shadowy intelligence operation with its own reasons for wanting Professor Muscat—and everything he knows. And while Lyn struggles to separate the evidence from the secrets being kept around her, someone from the White Tulip case is still watching.

The killer may be out of reach. But the story isn't over.

Set against the streets, villages and landscapes of Malta, DI Marylyn Cassar: The White Tulip Cold Case is a gripping crime thriller about buried secrets, forgotten victims, loyalty, guilt, and the price of uncovering the truth.

The Silver-Born Alpha

Book One of The Silver-Moon Chronicles Trilogy

They told her she was the last of her kind. They were wrong.

On the night the fire came, the Silver Moon fell. As her clan burned around her, a dying mother sealed away half her newborn daughter’s light, hid her in a hollow tree, and ran back into the flames to draw the hunters after her.

The child lived.

Raised in secret at the edge of the world by an ancient wizard who taught her four languages and withheld the fifth, Selara grew up believing she was the final ember of a murdered people. She is not. And she is no ordinary survivor — she is a wolf-mage, shape and word-craft in one body, a thing the old wisdom swore could never be, with half her power still locked in the silver at her throat.

Now she is walking back into the graveyard of her own clan to take it home.

She will gather the scattered and the hidden. She will spare a dying enemy who becomes the other half of her heart. She will raise a razed world to war on six words — the daughter of Caedris and Aelindra lives.

But the tyrant who holds her Temple was never only a conqueror. He was a jailer. And the thing chained beneath the sacred floor — older than the clans, older than the moon’s long memory — is beginning, at last, to wake.

She was given a medallion, a chance, and a mother’s love. She will build the rest herself.

A sweeping, folklore-steeped epic fantasy for readers who want their wolves ancient and their magic old — with a slow-burn romance, an invented language, and a world built to be lived in. Book One of the Silver Moon Chronicles.
