Trapped with some of Hollywood’s greatest stars sounds like fun, until the first body is found. It’s a race against the clock to discover which of the guests might be a murderer.
With her boyfriend Harper Wolfe in tow, she takes it on herself to solve the mystery. If she doesn’t she or one of her friends may be next. Can she get the Himbos and starlets to reveal their secrets before it's too late?
The only thing she hates more than a dead body, is being stuck in drag for 48 hours!

I love all the books in Shane Morton's Point Pleasant Holiday Series so I was excited to see this short story! Tad and Wally are complete opposites who've secretly been crushing on each other. The chemistry between them heats up the pages, and their story draws you in. Throughout the series, the author brings us into this town and this world, and we never want to leave. The Point Pleasant stories can be read as standalones, but once you start, you won't want to stop until you've read every one. I can't wait to see what comes next!
The concept of a murder mystery at a drag queen pageant is interesting and different to me. I will pick up this book by Shane K Morton just by looking at the cover, and reading the blurb.

The Inmate Alan P. Woodruff
Jose Lopez has served twelve years of a life sentence for a murder he claims he didn’t commit. The evidence all seems to point to Lopez’s guilt, but criminal defense attorney Lucius White is sure there is more to the story than what appears in the trial record.
White succeeds in getting Lopez a new trial, but somebody still wants Lopez kept in prison – and is willing to kill to make sure it happens. Witnesses who are ready to testify for Lopez at his retrial are being murdered, and White himself has been threatened. But who is behind it all? Is it the real killer?
To find the truth, White ventures into the violent world of drug dealers and motorcycle gangs and ultimately faces off against the government in a life-or-death trial that tests all of his legal skills.

I loved this book. Lots of tension, lots of mystery, great characters and humour throughout.
Compelling beginning to this conspiracy-theory plot focusing on the Middle East, Russia and the questionable role of various operators within the US government. Interesting likeable characters. Reads very authoritatively on all things military and security service related.

D for Daisy Nick Aaron
During World War II a Lancaster landed at its base in England after bombing Berlin, and a member of the crew was carried off dead. His young wife Daisy soon found out that he had been murdered. But she was only a woman, blonde and pretty, and blind since birth: so who was going to listen to her? In the mayhem of the bombing campaign, who even cared? She would have to find the murderer on her own.
I love the 1964 blind heroine crossing paths with a blind woman from ancient Rome, who has left a message 1900 years earlier. Two strong, brave women trying to do the right thing and stay alive, plus ancient Rome and political intrigues there, plus a mysterious message to decipher -- how could this fail as a recipe for fun, enthralling reading. Thank you, Nick Aaron, for writing The Desiderata Stone.
Nick Aaron's "D is for Daisy" starts with a compelling write-up--a blind woman is the only one on the trail of a murderer. A fascinating way to touch off a WWII thriller--a promising premise for a page-turner!
This sounds very intriguing!

Tangier Bank Heist Sean McLachlan
Right after the war, Tangier was the craziest town in North Africa. Everything was for sale and the price was cheap. The perverts came for the flesh. The addicts came for the drugs. A whole army of hustlers and grifters came for the loose laws and free flow of cash and contraband.

No, he didn’t rob the bank, he stole it.

I love all the books in Shane Morton's Point Pleasant Holiday Series so I was excited to see this short story! Tad and Wally are complete opposites who've secretly been crushing on each other. The chemistry between them heats up the pages, and their story draws you in. Throughout the series, the author brings us into this town and this world, and we never want to leave. The Point Pleasant stories can be read as standalones, but once you start, you won't want to stop until you've read every one. I can't wait to see what comes next!
The concept of a murder mystery at a drag queen pageant is interesting and different to me. I will pick up this book by Shane K Morton just by looking at the cover, and reading the blurb.

Elsa Joseph's novels keep the pages turning.! The plot lines are fantastic, the characters seem real and believable and the writing is rich with description. The Best Kept Secret is a novel with mystery, thriller and romantic elements.
Elsa Joseph is a smart writer. I definitely enjoyed reading her books :)
Elsa Joseph does great work depicting the conflict Natasha is feeling over the two loves in her life. Her writing is original and well worth the read.
Refreshing to read a novel written in Third Person. Natasha is someone you can root for. As for London, what a gorgeous landscape to set
your story in. Been there, so the descriptions bring back fond memories. Good pacing, smart dialogue.

A hairy bachelor (Bigfoot) decides to set off on a dangerous quest to find his long lost kin. He knows the journey will be fraught with danger because he knows he and his family are on the endangered list—a constant struggle to survive. But like an adage he once read in a book, “nothing ventured, nothing gained,” he is steadfast to not give up on his goal. Fortunately, and unexpectedly, he gets some assistance from two animals, one of whom is far bigger in his faith than his physical size. PoBo encounters many obstacles along the way, and his own faith is tested repeatedly as time runs out to fulfill his quest. What he at first thinks is the true meaning of his journey becomes redefined.
When we’re broken and we realize we are not in complete control, it's time to SURRENDER.

Years earlier, Kate spent 11 hours as a POW. Her Silver Star write-up says she killed 11 terrorists to avoid staying longer. But Kate has no memory of the deaths. And now, bizarre clues are cropping up. Is Kate finally losing her grip on reality? As the murders multiply, Kate must confront her demons—because what she can't remember...just might kill her.

Gloria Rank has lived her entire life in the dark. Blind since birth, she has made a name for herself as a respected talk radio show host in New Jersey. When her younger sister, Anna, has her identity stolen and a man is murdered outside her apartment, Anna becomes the prime suspect in an FBI investigation. But when bodies begin piling up around her, the FBI has to admit that she is being stalked by a murderer. With the FBI focused in the wrong direction, it is up to Gloria to teach Anna to use her other senses--hearing, touch, taste, and smell--which she never really had to completely rely on before to help uncover a ring of identity thieves and stop the killer from taking her life, and perhaps Gloria's as well! Their only hope for survival is an experiment in perception that will unearth

Kindred Intentions Rita Carla Francesca Monticelli
24 hours. 2 people. 1 target.
It was 10 a.m. when undercover agent Amelia Jennings arrived at the law firm Goldberg & Associates for a job interview. Her mission was to investigate a series of murders involving some well-known lawyers in the City. Her target, an elusive hired killer who had been of interest to the police for months.
But her plan is doomed to fall apart before it even starts.
In less than twenty-four hours Amelia will be the prey in a man hunt and her destiny will become entwined with Mike Connor’s.
Their intentions, apparently similar, may prove to be opposite, but the affinity binding them goes beyond what they think they know about each other.
One day to survive. One day to let go of the past.

Nothing like a thriller when the plan falls apart and the heroes have to wing it! Makes it all the harder for the reader to guess what is going to happen...
Fast and enjoyable.
beautiful cover :)
I felt like I was on Mars, the real Mars, and felt the desperation that isolated settlers will experience. Great read
Big screen material! This talented author brings the reader into a new world where adventure awaits at every turn. The descriptions are well though out, the characters pop off of the page. Don't miss this one!
Monticelli's original Italian has been translated to English for her Red Desert series, giving a charming flavor to the prose. Her characters are 3d, and her hard sci-fi setting is researched impeccably. Novella-length book one, "Point of no return," serves as an introduction, constructing the hooks that power future volumes and ramping up the tension and mystery.

Nicholas Story of an Oaktown OG Anthony Hudson
The white male psychiatrist to the far right of the table had a rosy complexion and sandy brown hair with grayish blue eyes. With a look on his face like he just could not put the pieces together, he said in a deep German accent, while chewing on his pipe that hung in the corner of his mouth, “You are very strange. You are very intelligent, and I see from the test results you have a very high IQ for a colored man. Yet you do some of the stupidest things I’ve ever seen.”
He continued, “You remind me of a child who sees a stove with one of the eyes lit and burning; the child reaches up to touch the flame, only to burn his fingers. They quickly learn the flame is hot and it burns their fingers when touching it. Most people know that by touching the flame with their fingers, that they will get
