Book excerpt: When murder mystery theatre becomes too real for comfort... Firefighter Larry Holmes needs some time away. Out of other options, he agrees to take his cousin's place at a crime fiction convention. Larry doesn't like mystery novels, but he can enjoy the host resort's amenities and stay out of the way. That plan goes out the window, however, when he arrives at the venue with the convention's organizer, Selena Watt, and the close-knit Crime Club decides that with Holmes and Watt present, the game must be afoot. The convention concludes with a staged murder mystery weekend at stately Rafferty House. Neglected for decades, the Victorian-era summer home built on an island in Georgian Bay has been restored and upgraded... mostly. At first, everything goes according to script. Then, shots are fired, people get hurt, and Larry suddenly finds himself in the middle of a real-life murder mystery. Only a few people on the island could have done it. The police can't come soon enough and the Crime Clubbers are itching to practice their sleuthing skills, taking Larry along for the ride. But with a serving staff paid to lie and unexpected guests with unclear motives, who can be trusted? Only Rafferty House knows--and it is not happy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perfect for fans of Jenn McKinlay and Ellery Adams, Scarlett Gardner’s dream was to open a bookshop in Southern California, but it soon becomes a nightmare when she finds the dead body of a customer—and becomes the prime suspect. Southern California is where dreams come true—or so Scarlett Gardner thought. When she moved there and opened the Palm Trees and Page Turners bookshop, she thought her boyfriend and business partner would be part of the story. When he leaves her for a better job, Scarlett finds herself struggling to keep her new business afloat. That’s not the only thing she has to worry about—she discovers something underneath the pier by her bookshop that she didn’t outline for her life’s story: the dead body of a book-buying customer. After Scarlett gives a statement to the police, she thinks her life can go back to business as usual. But when a lawyer, representing someone named Lorelai Knight, tells Scarlett that she now stands to inherit a small fortune, she’s left with more questions than answers. Before she can make sense of any of it, the police bring her in for questioning; the body she found was Lorelai Knight. And the evidence they have against Scarlett doesn’t look good. Business is booming as Scarlett returns to Palm Trees and Page Turners, but for all the wrong reasons – curious tourists don’t want books, they want a glimpse of the Bookshop Killer. Who could really be behind all of this? And why frame Scarlett? To clear her name, she’s going to have get creative—and hope she can remain one page ahead of the killer.

Book excerpt: The year is 1955, and the small peaceful coastal community of Carmel-by-the-Sea would be shocked by the vicious murder and mutilation of one of its citizens, former silent screen actress Carla Miles. Local law enforcement would work vigorously to solve the crime that had all the indications the killer was a psychopathic sexual sadist. During the investigation, several good suspects were questioned but the police could never link them to the crime. The case would eventually die as a famous unsolved murder. Thirty-five years would pass before an eyewitness to the murder would come forward to contact Detective Colt Hannon. This would start a cold case murder investigation that would impact the detective’s career for the rest of his life. The Carla Miles murder case is based on a true homicide investigation that took over thirty-five years before its final conclusion.

Book excerpt: Sketches of Murder, an eye-opening experience that rattles the nerves, shakes the hands that turn its pages, and revs up the pulse of the reader. Sketches of Murder revisits the murder scenes of some of Michigan's most gruesome murders torn from the headlines of the daily newspapers in Arnold Hannon's hometown of Detroit, Michigan, snippets of murder from our past. With the accounts of over 240 murders committed over the last 50 years, 1960-2009, Hannon powerfully delivers a vital message through a small sampling of man and woman's inhumanity toward our fellow beings.
