Book Description

Welcome to the world of Allie Nighthawk, corpse whisperer and bad ass zombie hunter. “If you raise deadheads, you’d better be able to put ‘em down. Nobody said it was pretty. But in this day, when vampires aren’t just for breakfast anymore, and the dead are disposable pawns for necromancers, someone has to ante up. Looks like I won the lotto. Imagine my delight. You should thank me, really, because the world is batshit crazy.” When the zombie population spikes and no one knows why, it’s up to Allie to solve the mystery. But there’s a hitch. She’s stuck babysitting Leo Abruzzi, a zombie-bitten gangster who’s turning state’s evidence. But the mob and a powerful necromancer will stop at nothing to take Leo and Allie down. Allie Nighthawk is Anita Blake on steroids, with a fondness for leather and Jack on the rocks. She has a healthy dose of Stephanie Plum and Rachel Morgan in her, too, though she’d never admit it. The battle between good and evil just got wicked fun.

Book Description

“Just after sunrise, I jumped on my Harley and hurtled toward Templeman’s Funeral Home, packing Hawk, my custom 9mm, a backup Glock, and a seven-inch Ka-Bar knife—the standard-issue zombie-hunter’s tool kit. Not that I’m standard-issue, by any stretch. I was born with the ability to raise the dead. It’s a genetic thing. Don’t ask me how it works. I didn’t write the playbook. I’m just living the dream.” Allie Nighthawk faces a ghost from her past as she explores the fascinating and historic world of Cincinnati’s underground. When the Z-virus threatens world-wide contamination, it’s up to Allie to save the day. Is her magick strong enough to turn the tide? Or will doubt and inner demons stand in her way? And will those she loves survive?

Book Description

Mia Murphy's friends have dubbed her the Corpse Whisperer…and life is about to prove them right. Mia, Hattie, and Lucy are off to a posh island resort for a much-needed girls trip to coastal Maine. Sun, fun, margaritas, and a birthday party are their only plans…until they discover Hattie's cousin with a corpse in her hot tub and the cops on her deck. With her monogrammed knitting needles lodged in his chest, Hattie's cousin is the primary suspect. But who lets a widowed sassy senior spend her birthday in jail? Not Mia and her pals. As Mia, Hattie, and Lucy investigate behind-the-scenes shenanigans at the VIP resort, stakes skyrocket when they link the victim to Mia's missing mom. With the body count rising, they plunge into a high-octane race involving an unusual boat captain, haunted caves, secret identities, and pirate booty. To complicate matters, Mia's former FBI handler is trying to call the shots, and Bass Derby's eccentric mystery writer arrives with Mia's cranky cat and an agenda. Mia must prove she's no corpse whisperer, cement her claim that she'll never date again, and engage in possibly criminal tactics to keep her beloved trio of trouble from becoming the next victims. It's about to get outrageous, dangerous, and downright personal. Chock full of twists, hilarity, and warmth, Triple Trouble is a fast-paced whodunnit with addictive banter, riotous suspense, and an irresistibly unapologetic cat. "This book is pure genius. Hilariously funny all the way through and with a fantastic storyline too." Five-star Goodreads Review (Nikki P) "Mia Murphy is one of the most fun characters I have ever encountered in a book. She is brazen, creative, intelligent and loyal."

But when Hattie shows up two hours late with a corpse in her truck, Mia’s news has to take a backseat to keeping her bestie out of jail. Armed only with a stowaway cat, corded implements, and a cranky mystery writer, the trio of trouble must invade a cauldron of testosterone to uncover the murderer before he or she finds them. Stolen recipes, secrets pasts, and inconvenient law-enforcement hotties stand in the way of justice, survival, and girl power. But desperate women are unstoppable, and the trio of trouble is no exception! With only hours to uncover the truth, Mia must lead the way down a path that no one wants to go down…except maybe her cat.

Five-star Goodreads Review (Julia) "Lots of suspense, action, hilarious moments, secrets and unexpected twists." Five-star Goodreads Review (Donna L) "This book reminded me so much of the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich. It had just the right amount of action, suspense and hilarious humor." Five-star Goodreads Review (Vicki R) "This is a great mystery, made better by the fun and quirky characters who work to solve them and the zany situations they find themselves in. I loved this line, and think it encompasses the feel of the book - “Sometimes you get yourself in bad situations and it’s not your fault. But what you do afterwards? That’s when you get to choose who you are and whom you want to be.“ I can’t wait for the next Mia Murphy mystery along with her band of trusted friends. I highly recommend this series!!!"

Book Description

In The Baroque Night, authorial idiosyncrasy hybridizes the concepts of "baroque" and "noir" across the fields of film, theater, literature, and philosophy, arguing for mental function as form, as an impossible object, a container in which the container itself is the thing contained. The book is an experiment in thinking difference and thinking differently, an ethics of otherness and the abstract. Spencer Golub inverts the unreality of the real and the reality of fiction, exposing the tropes of memory, identity, and authenticity as a scenic route through life that ultimately blocks the view. The Baroque Night draws upon materials that have not previously been included in studies of either the baroque or film noir, while offering new perspectives on other, more familiar sources. Leibniz's concepts of the monad and compossibility provide organizing thought models, and death, fear, and mental illness cast their anamorphic images across surfaces that are deeper and closer than they at first appear. Key characters and situations in the book derive from the works of Alfred Hitchcock, Henri-Georges Clozot, Jean-Pierre Melville, Oscar Wilde, Georges Perec, Patricia Highsmith, William Shakespeare, Jean Racine, Pierre Corneille, and Arthur Conan Doyle, among many others. This is virtuality and reality for the phobic, making it a fascinating and viable document of and episteme for the anxious age in which we (always) find ourselves living, though not yet fully alive. This performance of suspect evidence speaks to and in the ways we are organically inauthentic, the cause of our own causality and our own worst eyewitnesses to all that appears and disappears in space and time.
