The Gray Ghost, by Clive Cussler & Robin Burcell. Tenth in Cussler's Fargo Adventures (following 2017's The Romanov Ransom) finds the husband-and-wife team of Sam and Remi Fargo with a case that goes back more than a century. In 1906, the groudbreaking prototype for the Rolls-Royce Gray Ghost disappeared from the streets of Manchester, England. It was the lucky intervention of American detective Isaac Bell that prevented it from being lost forever. What was not salvageable, however, was the reputation of Marcus Peyton, the man wrongly accused of the theft. Now, over a hundred years later, Peyton's grandson looks to the Fargos to help reclaim his grandfather's good name, and there's even more at stake now: the car has gone missing again.

Princess: A Private Novel, by James Patterson & Rees Jones. Jack Morgan has been made an offer he cannot refuse--an invitation to meet Princess Caroline, third in line to the British throne. He immediately hops into his Gulfstream jet and flies to London. What the Princess needs is Jack's help, and his discretion--one of the Princess's closest friends has gone missing, and she hopes Jack can find Sophie before the media catch on. There must be more to the case than she lets on, but what is the Princess hiding?
