The Carlswick Conspiracy 

An enemy who won’t stop. A legacy that refuses to stay buried.

Eighteen-year-old Stephanie Cooper is thrilled to join her boyfriend, James Knox—rock guitarist for indie band The Fury—in New York for the final week of their tour. But the band’s rising fame has drawn dangerous attention, and Stephanie’s museum research project unexpectedly puts her in the crosshairs of someone she hoped never to face again.

From Manhattan’s glittering bars and backstage chaos to the shadowed tenements of the 1940s Lower East Side, Stephanie is pulled into a high-stakes chase for the truth. A faceless blackmailer is tightening their grip, and every clue Stephanie uncovers about wartime Nazi art liberator Karl Hoffman only raises the stakes.

As the threats escalate, Stephanie is forced into a deception she never intended—and she and James find themselves fighting for their lives against an adversary who knows exactly how to strike at the people she loves most.

Perfect for fans of A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder and The Inheritance Games, this YA mystery/thriller blends dark secrets, dangerous enemies, and a pulse‑pounding race through past and present New York.
