Linda Howard CD Collection: Dying to Please, to Die For, and Killing Time Abridged edition

Dying to Please: First and foremost a butler par excellence, skilled at running large households smoothly and efficiently, Sarah Stevens is also a trained bodyguard and expert marksman - indispensable to her elderly employer. Then one night she thwarts a burglary in progress. The exposure is enough to catch the attention of a tortured soul who, unbeknownst to Sarah, will stop at nothing to have her for himself. To Die For: Blair Mallory lives the good life. She?s pretty, confident, and the owner of a thriving upscale fitness center. But in the shadow of success, a troubled member of the club develops a strange fixation on her, imitating her style and dress. Matters take a darker turn when the look-alike is shot dead. Was this murder a lethal case of mistaken identity - and was Blair the intended victim? Killing Time: In 1985 a time capsule was buried under the front lawn of a small-town county courthouse. Twenty years later, in the dead of night, the capsule is dug up, its contents stolen. One by one, those who had placed items in the time capsule are murdered. Besides his suspicions about the sudden, mysterious appearance of Nikita Stover, the chief investigator, Knox Davis, has absolutely no leads. And while Nikita?s no murderer, she seems to be hiding plenty of secrets.
