Don't judge a book by its cover, or a bag lady by her appearance. 'I didn't always look like this, ' she says. 'Being barmy doesn't mean I'm stupid.'

Lady Bag does have her problems - her close relationship with cheap red wine, for example. When she gets hammered she talks to her dog. When she's extra-hammered her dog talks to her. Guess who makes better sense.

She and her rescue greyhound, Electra, wander through the streets of London, seeing a Dickensian side of the capital city that's visible only to the homeless. Together they accept the kindness and unkindness of strangers with the same wry patience. Until, on one dreadful day, they meet the Devil outside the National Portrait Gallery...

Nita Tehri's life seems sorted. She has a good job, she lives in a pretty apartment in a quiet street and she has escaped from the family who endangered her.

Yet despite everything she's achieved she still has a problem. She doesn't look like her neighbours. And when a grizzly discovery is made outside her door all eyes turn towards her.

She has done nothing wrong. But slowly, inexorably, her life turns inside-out. How can the people she used to think of as her friends and colleagues behave so irrationally in modern, enlightened England? Little by little her faith in society and British justice is eroded.

It isn't only her belief in fair play that's threatened. One thing is certain-if she survives, her life will never be the same.

Anna quit the London police force because it was a dead end for women, but her job with Brierly Security isn?t a whole lot livelier. Her boss doesn?t much approve of female investigators and her assignments tend toward the frustratingly genteel. The Jackson case doesn?t look like a big improvement. Ambitious, unpleasant young Deirdre Jackson has died, the apparent victim of a car accident on a lonely stretch of highway, and her parents want to know what their black-sheep daughter was up to in her last few months. Anna's job, she knows, is to ask a few questions, write a report, and collect the Jacksons? check. But the more questions she asks about Dee's life, the more questions arise about her death. Answering them could land Anna in the hospital . . . or the morgue. But it could also be her ticket out of the pink-collar ghetto.

The Edgar Allan Poe Award-winning author of Monkey Wrench presents the third entry in the widely acclaimed series starring London's favorite female wrestler/sleuth. When Eva Wylie finds a bag stuffed with bank notes in one of the cars she borrowed, her future looks brighter than ever--until a strange man shows up and Eva is faced with a very formidable opponent.

Eva Wylie may not be beautiful, but she's big and smart and tough. Working as a wrestler called the London Lassassin, all she wants is wrestling superstardom and to find her long-lost sister. She does a little investigating on her own, and ends up in the middle of a vicious London gang war fighting for her life.
