Alongside him is Katherine McKenna, an American publishing executive in London who is also struggling with a kindred dilemma. and laughing!Ĭonflict of Intrigues: The Marylebone Intersection, the first book in the Intersection series by ML Yost, introduces readers to Professor Jon Markston, a former member of the British Army intelligence corps who finds himself in an exacting position when a mysterious call signals a decade-old troubled mission.
