An omnibus of novels by Diana Xarissa
The third collection of cozy thrillers.
The George Assignment
Janet and Edward are enjoying life in Doveby Dale, planning their carriage house remodel, when Mr. Jones arrives with a new and rather urgent assignment. Another agent has disappeared. While there are any number of possible explanations for the disappearance, none of them are good.
As Janet and Edward follow the missing man's trail from Edinburgh to Paris to Berlin, it begins to seem as if he’s disappeared by choice, which raises a number of other worrying possibilities.
Has the agent been taken or has he disappeared voluntarily? Are Janet and Edward walking into a trap? And is this going to be their most dangerous assignment yet?
The Hamilton Assignment
Edward and Janet are enjoying themselves in London when they are given their next assignment. This one sounds simple enough. All they need to do is get inside a museum after hours and exchange some buttons on display for another, seemingly identical set.
Of course, nothing is as easy as it seems when it comes to top-secret assignments. There’s only one hotel in the tiny Pennsylvania town where they’re staying, and Janet and Edward haven’t been there long before they discover that things aren’t what they appear to be at the Craterstown Hotel.
Can Janet and Edward get the buttons exchanged before the museum shuts for a two-year remodel? Can they work out what’s really happening at the Craterstown Hotel? And does Janet truly want to ride a roller coaster for the first time?
The Ingram Assignment
Janet is happy to be back in Doveby Dale, under the same roof as her sister, Joan. The arrangement is only temporary, as Janet and her husband, Edward, are planning to move out to the carriage house on the grounds of the bed and breakfast that Joan and Janet own. Still, after several exciting months travelling all over the world on various assignments for a top-secret government agency, Janet is looking forward to some rest and relaxation.
The agency has other plans, of course. Now that Janet has shown herself to be a valuable asset to the agency, it’s been decided that she needs some formal training. Having spent some weeks learning the basics in London, now that they’re in Doveby Dale, the agency has a few training assignments for Janet. They’re meant to be simple exercises, designed to test her skills, but the very first one goes badly wrong.
Now Janet and Edward have to do whatever they can to try to rescue what’s becoming a complicated situation. In the meantime, Janet has two more assignments to get through, and she may not be able to manage them without asking her sister for help.
