🌟✨ Big Announcement: Get Ready for the Thrilling Adventures of Bella and Ngoc! ✨🌟

I am beyond excited to share that my brand-new cozy crime thriller series has just published book three of our four book series. Starting with Svenska Handelsbanken, we meet the incredible twin detective duo, Bella and Ngoc, who take center stage in a gripping narrative set in the intriguing kingdom of Bears Home.

Imagine this: Bella, full of fire and ambition, is determined to prove herself worthy of joining the esteemed Royal Guard. In contrast, her twin sister Ngoc approaches every challenge with a thoughtful and analytical mindset, making her an exceptional crime-solver. Their unique personalities and unwavering sisterly bond create a dynamic that adds depth to every twist and turn they encounter.

But this series is more than just high-stakes crime; it’s a journey of personal growth, resilience, and the unwavering love between sisters. The enigmatic Kellen Olshefski, the Polish mob boss pulling the strings behind the scenes, adds layers of complexity to their adventures and moral dilemmas.

I'm particularly excited about the unique screenplay-style format I've chosen for this series, which aims to immerse you in the action and emotion of each scene like never before. Get ready to feel the adrenaline rush and connect with the characters on a deeper level!

This is just the beginning of an unforgettable journey, and I can’t wait for you to dive into the captivating world of Bella and Ngoc. Buckle up for a rollercoaster of emotions, mysteries, and revelations that will leave you eagerly turning the pages!

Thank you for your support, and I hope you enjoy reading as much as I enjoyed writing!

❤️📖 Let the adventure begin! 📖❤️

The quick, sharp exchanges between characters move the plot forward and offer insight into their personalities and relationships. This format, combined with the series’ intricate plotlines, ensures that each book is an exciting read and a thoughtful narrative journey.

As the series progresses, the stakes rise even higher. Know Your Enemy has a new villain, Brandon Stenzel, who enters the fray.
