When a Gitane WitchMaster pursues two Frenc spies who stole a sphere of power, can a half-trained mage and a simple temple cleric help them escape?
Just as their cover is blown, the spies Rolf and Catal stumble upon a greater secret: the Kaerrefiorne, a blood-fed globe that will connect every Gitane Witch. They steal this orb that will complete the witches’ connection and escape into snow-smothered Arlas.
When Catal is severely wounded, two clerics at a Protectorate temple outpost become the Frenc spies only hope. Legeeta and Niijai, a Green mage with unschooled powers, do not know they harbor Frenc spies.
Rolf takes the orb to the border to keep it safe from the pursuing Watrani. He is not an hour from the temple when the troop arrives.
With the Watrani is Keipven, a WitchMaster. He recognizes Niijai’s magic as a potent replacement for the orb.
If he can bend her power to his will, his own puissance increases. If he can twist her to sorcery, the Gitane Witches become that much stronger against the Mages. If he can neither control her nor twist her, then he will kill her.
Will Catal be discovered and killed as a spy?
Will Rolf stumble into the Watrani when he returns?
And will Niijai be destroyed by Keipven, alive and enslaved to his plans or bloody and dead on the snowy fields of Arlas?

The Danger for Spies brings back the character of Toby Kennitt from A Game of Spies.
The Dangers for Spies
Released March 10, 2017
Past actions cause present dangers.
The French spy, a double Agent
Eugenie DesChamps thinks she is safe, hidden in the English village of Little Houghton. She paints landscapes to supplement her income. She embarks on a flirtation with Charles Audley. To her the world seems radiant, so very different from eight years ago.
No one knows that she once was a toast of Paris, a pretense she used to acquire information to pass on to English spies. Eugenie hated the corrupt French government that had caused the deaths of her family. Then a French agent discovered her double game. She barely escaped with her life.
The English Spy, Undercover
Eight years ago, Tobias Kennit worked with Eugenie, stealing information about Napoleon’s troop movements. Then their operation crashed. He fled, believing that Eugenie was executed as a traitor to her home country. Toby abandoned his undercover spying and became a gamester and a rake.
Yet now the English spycatcher Roger Nazenby has approached Toby once more. He wants him to protect a cryptographer living in the village of Little Houghton. French spies have infiltrated England to capture Charles Audley and return with him to France. Toby agrees to the assignment only because the woman he wants to marry (Melly Ratcliffe) lives in that village.
The Master Cryptographer
Charles Audley returned to his home village for peace and quiet after stressful years in London developing a series of ciphers for English agents. His latest ciphers led to English victories in the Peninsular War.
In Little Houghton, he is charmed by Eugenie DesChamps, a mysterious French artist. Their flirtation distracts him from his cryptography, but he feels no guilt whenever he is in her company.
Lives Collide
When Toby sees Eugenie, he is shocked. Eugenie is not dead, and he wants answers from a woman he thought was a double agent. Is she in Little Houghton to help kidnap the cryptographer? She convinces him that she is not—but who is the threat to Charles Audley? And can they protect Audley when they do not know when or where the attack will strike?
And Danger Returns
French agent Didier Poulaine has spent eight years weaving together the snippets of threads to help him locate the only two spies who ever escaped him: Eugenie de la Croix and an Englishman masquerading as a French military officer. He tracks them to Little Houghton, the location of the cryptographer he came to England to kidnap—or kill.
Poulaine’s threads have woven together. Three lives intersect again and involve a fourth. Blood will be shed before the past is purged. Whose blood?
The Dangers for Spies is a romantic historical suspense set in Regency England, part of the Hearts in Hazard series. While this novel and The Game of Spies have interconnected characters, D4Spies is a complete work on its own. However, readers will have a richer experience if they have also read The Game of Spies.

The wizard Alstera continues her quest to restore access to her bound powers. A nightmare of foul sorcery gives her an opportunity. She tracks the evil to a snow-smothered village deep in the mountains.
A vengeful woman wielded spells based in sorcery. To fulfill her revenge, she re-animated a corpse, turning the dead man into a death-walker.
When Alstera and her friend Raul arrive, the suspicious villagers don’t trust them. Too many have died mysteriously, victims to a monster that don’t dare name.
Alstera is shocked when she discovers the sorcery re-animated a corpse. Walking Death drinks blood to retain a semblance of life.
But to fight the death-walker, she must once more rely on primitive and forbidden blood-magic.
With her powers bound, she had to use blood-magic in Vaermonde (Dream a Deadly Dream). She wanted to avoid another use. She wanted an easy battle against sorcery.
Yet this battle isn’t easy. She can’t find the sorcerer. She can’t find the death-walker. And a wizard from the Enclave is in close pursuit.
She knows the Enclave wizard comes to discover if she is keeping the wizard tenets
or if she is crossing the tenuous barrier that separates wizardry from sorcery. Every time she uses blood-magic is a mark against her.
If he returns her to the Enclave, the wizard council will strip away all her powers.
Then Walking Death claims his re-animator as a victim.
With only a small portion of her powers freed, not enough against the death-walker, can Alstera wield blood-magic to defeat a blood-spelled monster?
Remi Black’s Sing a Graveyard Song is available now, exclusively on Amazon.
The icy mountains hold danger and death but not in the way
that the Fae Mark’d wizard Alstera expects in Sing a Graveyard Song.
Suspicious villagers, justice-seeking pursuers, and foul sorcery
are nothing compared to a blood-drinking monster.
With her powers still shackled for crimes against wizardry, Alstera reaches a snow-smothered village being attacked by a death walker. The re-animated corpse drinks blood to exist. To fight the death-walker, Alstera relies primitive and forbidden blood-magic.
Yet will blood-magic defeat a blood-spelled creature?
How many lives will the death walker take before Alstera finds the way to destroy it?
Will Alstera cross the tenuous barrier that separates wizardry from foul sorcery?
The dark fantasy Sing a Graveyard Song continues the grim story of twisted magic and foul sorcery and Alstera, walking the silvery thread that separates them. Third in the Fae Mark’d Wizard series, Grave follows Weave a Wizardry Web and Dream a Deadly Dream. Although each novel is a complete story, readers will have a richer experience if they read all three in order.
