Spycraft and the Lash
Spycraft and the Lash Scott Sowers
Spycraft and the Lash is written as a slightly twisted mystery-thriller with a dash of romance thrown in. Government worker Rex Armstrong plays the lead as a man with an unchallenging job, a troublesome ex-wife, and a taste for BDSM. Rex is also attracted to Lucy Wright, a normie who lives in the same apartment building. His after work interests come to the attention of a mysterious federal agent who calls himself Wellborn. Wellborn is interested in recruiting Rex for his special set of skills and connections to the fetish community. Written with multiple nods to the hard-bitten prose of Raymond Chandler, Spycraft spools out as a sexy, thrilling mystery.

A Vampire's Tale Omar Daniels
Durante just does his job and hopes he gets a break. When he’s not drinking or enjoying some good eats, he’s policing Vampires of all things with the aid of an Empath who’s not really his type. Meanwhile, two nefarious Vamps by the names of Ryker and Malik are brewing up a storm, with hopes of takeover, or at the very least upsetting the Vampire-Human Coexistence.
If that isn’t enough, his pals are dropping like flies.
Now it's up to Durante and a couple of shrewd agents to get to the bottom of the recent slayings and uncover the mystery to a set of books known as the Lycan. They must, before the wrong hands do, and the world plummets into a kind of hell that which no one, not even Vampires, want to enter.

MURDER IN MOSCOW: THE OBLAST COURT TRIAL
A handyman shoots and kills teenager stealing apples from his orchard in 1958.
He says it was an accident. Convicted, he’d normally get three years in prison.
He’s charged with murder from ‘base motives” with “evil intent.”
That charge carries 10 years.
But the judge has another punishment in mind.
What’s going on here? That’s a moral, not a legal charge.
Is it an over-zealous judge or a Kremlin-ordered Stalinist show trial?
Does the prosecutor want to get a career victory?
Is it jurisprudential collusion or madness?
The accused could get the death penalty in this deadly game.
