1. The Case of the Mysterious Madam (2020 Reissue)
Murder. Scandal. Can one man’s troubled conscience save an innocent woman from a terrible fate? 1894, Whitby, Massachusetts. Hard-working attorney Titus Strong’s last win left him riddled with guilt. Fleeing the shame of freeing a murderer, he retreats to a seaside community notorious for gambling, booze, and bawdy houses. But befriending the town madam becomes his newest controversy when she’s accused of murder. With the scarlet woman slammed behind bars, Titus is convinced she didn’t pull the trigger and sets about clearing her name. But between shipwrecks, hidden loot, and blackmail in the village, the persistent lawyer finds himself on the wrong end of something far more dangerous than a smoking gun. Can Titus redeem himself and free a blameless woman before she’s sentenced to death?
3. The Case of the Comely Clairvoyant
Sometimes dead men do tell tales. Titus Strong, criminal defense attorney, has had some unusual clients since moving to Shipwreck Point. But none as extraordinary as Fannie Tyler. The beautiful young widow still talks to her husband every day, even though he perished in a blizzard six years ago. And he talks back. Through him, Fannie brings the bereaved women of Whitby communications from beyond the grave. Her séances aren’t enough to support herself and her son, and in summer she rents rooms to vacationers from Boston. This year, a nearby theater in the formerly family-friendly neighborhood has booked a burlesque troupe. And the visitors are moving out. In desperate financial straits, Fannie asks the lawyer to convince the theater owner to replace the scandalous show. But when the proprietor is found murdered, and all the clues point to his client, Titus must change course. Will the clever defense attorney be able to prove Fannie’s innocence? Or will the stunning sibyl be fated to join her spouse by way of the hangman’s noose?

Criminal defense attorney Titus Strong, awakened by shouts and the boom of the lifesaving station’s cannon, hurries to the beach to observe the rescue. When the crew pulls the unconscious elderly sailor from the troubled sea, his appearance is made plain. Jaws drop, including Titus Strong’s. It appears they have rescued Santa Claus. But nothing goes smoothly in Shipwreck Point, and "Santa" becomes the primary suspect in the town’s latest murder.
