A Portrait of Loyalty (Roseanna M. White) – Review

Zivon Marin was one of Russia’s top cryptographers until the October Revolution tore apart his world.

On Wings of Devotion (Roseanna M. White) – Review

All of England thinks Phillip Camden a monster–a man who deliberately caused the deaths of his squadron.
