Default 1999 Vanden Plas won't start

Hi Everyone,
This is my first post. I inherited a 1999 Vanden Plas. It won't start, the battery is strong and new, the engine cranks strong but will not actually start. Also there are no trouble lights it just cranks but wont start. Before that it would stall while driving on rare occasions, but putting it in park and restarting it would work, now nothing. Please help, I love the car and want to get it going for as little $ as possible.
Thanks,
Paul
