Janeology by Karen Harrington

Tom Nelson is struggling after the death of his son at the hands of his wife Jane. While Jane sits in a Texas mental hospital for her part in the crime, prosecutors turn their focus to Tom. They believe Tom should have known Jane was on the cusp of a breakdown and protected his children from her illness. As a result, he is charged with “failure to protect.” Enter attorney, Dave Frontella, who employs a radical defense strategy – one that lays the blame at the feet of Jane’s nature and nurture. An unforgettable journey through the troubled minds and souls of Jane's ancestors, spanning decades and continents, this debut novel deftly illustrates the ways nature and nurture weave the fabric of one woman's life, and renders a portrait of one man left in its tragic wake.

Synopsis:
State security officer Gheorge Preda was assassinated in Bucharest by a CIA sniper in 1988. Over a decade later, an evidence trail erupts to potentially expose the unsanctioned operation—even detailing in cryptic messages the exact location of the murder weapon. Stopping the evidence leak proves to be more than a mere coverup for the agents of the World Espionage Bureau (WEB). The mission they undertake brings the agents to Bucharest where they race against time—as well as the frontier police and foreign operatives—to recover a signaling device that had been dormant for years. It takes more than planning, skill, and deceit to pull off what WEB Command is, behind the scenes, calling impossible. It takes a wedding. It takes another assassination.

Welcome to Hollywood—after dark…

Stuntwoman Dawn Madison is a girl with attitude—and a lot of issues, mostly about living up to the legacy of her mother, a world famous movie star whose untimely death left Dawn to be raised by her dad Frank, nobody’s notion of single-father-of-the-year. Now that she’s grown up, she and Frank aren’t on the best of terms, to say the least.
Still, he is her dad, and when he vanishes while investigating the bizarre sighting—caught on film—of a supposedly long-dead child star, she comes home to Tinseltown to join the search for him. Working with his colleagues—a psychic short in stature but big in dreams, a beautiful Latina techno-geek, and the P. I. firm’s never-seen boss—she discovers an erotic and bloody underground society made up of creatures she thought existed only on screen.

They are devious. They are deadly. And some of them are dangerously attractive…
