Spring Break


Book Description

SPRING BREAKDOWN It’s springtime again, and all P.I. Maggie Skerritt and her charmingly levelheaded business partner and fiancé, Bill Malcolm, can do is hope that rite of passage infamously known as spring break is quiet and painless. Luckily, as the week progresses, Maggie and Bill find the influx of college kids committing only minor offenses, albeit they’re piling up like empty kegs at a frat party. If only life could remain that simple… While the tourists wreak mostly harmless havoc, the murder of a woman and her possible connection to a local politician grabs all Maggie’s attention. And when that same connection leads her and Bill back to the unsolved case that changed—and still haunts—both their lives, Maggie suddenly wishes party patrol was all she had to worry about.

Mystery of a Dromedary


Book Description

On the night before his wedding, Vernon Rivers is told the date of his death: his first anniversary. Faced with a situation that parallels that of Victor Frankenstein, Vernon must navigate his final year balancing his needs with the needs of those who depend on him, all while none of them know the reality of his dilemma. In this homage to Mary Shelley's classic story, Vernon shares the spotlight with Autumn, his optimistic and practical wife who is fighting an uphill battle with her community; Miles, the hesitant teacher who is searching for any sign of success; Eudora, the cunning principal who finds herself at a crossroads in her career; Ernie, a soul trapped in the American South who has nothing left to lose; and Janecia and Ambrose, two students whose stories are just beginning to be told. These characters are woven into a tale that pits time against memory, greatness against mediocrity, and supernatural elements against the familiar and disenchanting burdens the setting presents. I think Mr. Mahoney has tapped into a nuanced narrative position that echoes David Foster Wallace's fiction. Salute. --John Mauk
