  Life is so boring in Maggody, Arkansas, population 755, the locals have resorted to reading supermarket tabloids, gobbling up every rumor of wolf men, zombies, and creatures from outer space they can get their hands on. And as the only sane woman in town, Chief of Police Arly Hanks just smiles and nods whenever her neighbors rave about the latest conspiracy theories. But to Arly’s eternal horror, it looks like Maggody is about to become ground zero for an extraterrestrial invasion. The aliens will never know what hit 'em. 
   
   
    
  It starts when strange circles appear in Raz Buchanon's cornfields, drawing reporters, newscasters, and every nut west of the Mississippi. But as supernatural fever hits Maggody, Arly is confronted with a very terrestrial murder. There may be aliens on Main Street, but in a town this strange, how could anybody tell the difference? 
   
   
    
  Life has always been nutty in Maggody, but the madness is about to go paranormal. Master of cozies Joan Hess knows better than anyone how to push a mystery to the brink of madness—and then push it a whole lot farther.

  As candles flickered, she pulled out a small stool then sat, resting her palms gently on the surface of the smooth wood. Then, again reaching into her robe pocket, she pulled out a small, sepia-colored photograph, resting it against a plain, black urn. 
  With candle flames mirrored in her eyes, Amelia lit the cigar with one of the candles, blowing its thick, acrid smoke at the photo—and, it was then she spoke, her words unintelligible. Chanting her desires, she gently picked up the photograph, raising it to her God. 
  And, there she stayed until it was done . . . 
  Once again, author Faith Wood transports her readers into a world of intrigue and the unexpected. When The Social Hour’s Decklin Kilgarry pulls up stakes to embark on a new life in Miami, he never considered changes to his heart. His soul. Even so, as his investigation transforms from something routine and familiar into an undercurrent of darkness and corruption, he digs in, stunned when confronted with a person from his past—one whom he barely knows. Forming an unanticipated allegiance, mysteries unlock one-by-one, revealing an insidious truth. One, when illuminated, reveals a malevolent, treasonous intent—and, murder.

  A retired detective, a haunted mine, and a mystery 
  When Diana retired from her detective duties, she firmly believed her time spent solving mysteries was over. 
  She loved to cook, and starting her own B&B seemed like a seamless step into a far more fun and cozier lifestyle. 
  Did she sometimes miss the adrenaline rush of solving a case? Sure. But those days are behind her now. 
  That was until mysterious footprints appeared in the middle of the hall. 
  Though her guests were intrigued by stories about the legend of a ghost that haunted the old mine nearby, she had dismissed them as just that: stories. 
  With strange occurrences starting around the house, she was finding that harder and harder to believe, and her sleuthing hat was well and truly back on. 
  Was she secretly excited to be back in the game? That’s beside the point. 
  The real question is: Will she be able to solve The Mystery at Bakers Inn?

  Coronation Day, 1902. Charles and Kate Sheridan are pleased to be witness to the crowning of their king. Expatriate author Jack London is also watching the festivities—but with a more skeptical eye. He has come to London to write an exposé of the East End slums—and the coronation has not tempered his disdain for the monarchy. This special day takes a sinister turn when an anarchist accidentally blows himself up with a bomb meant for the king. Charged with determining the extent of the danger facing the Crown, Charles and Kate turn up a number of intriguing—and disturbing—questions. And then there is the matter of the mysterious, beautiful Charlotte Conway, editor of the anarchist newspaper where the dead man was employed. On the run from Scotland Yard, she takes refuge in Kate and Charles's home—and in Jack London's arms. All of which makes for a very interesting investigation indeed...
