Wild stories featuring favorite characters from the Mongo Mysteries, including Mongo’s brother, Garth Frederickson, and ex–CIA agent/Vietnam vet Veil Kendry. Three very different sleuths—an ex–NYPD cop, a psychic painter and vigilante, and a former priest—handle unusual cases in this collection from the “unlimited imagination” of George C. Chesbro, creator of the one-of-a-kind dwarf detective, Mongo the Magnificent (Publishers Weekly). When a mad scientist injected him with a rare drug, former policeman Garth Frederickson—brother of Dr. Robert Fredrickson, aka Mongo—developed the power to sense the often-malevolent feelings of those around him . . . Veil Kendry, ex–CIA agent, Vietnam War veteran, and devoted martial arts instructor, almost died at birth. The damage left him with powerful dreams that have made him a successful abstract painter—and a dangerous vigilante . . . Brendan Furie was once a priest who carried a Bible, but after a mishandled exorcism forced him out of the church, he became a PI armed with a gun . . . In Lone Wolves, these unconventional antiheroes take on deadly militias, doomsday cults, East German secret police, alien abductions, telepathy experiments, Chinese street gangs, ghosts, demonic possessions, and more.

A sexy new standalone shifter romance from New York Times Bestselling Author Anne Marsh... He’s the lone wolf… I don’t play well with other wolves. The pack needs muscle, and I provide it as their enforcer. My biker name is Gator—after the alligator that chewed my face up. Sure I can make a woman scream with pleasure, but the scars on my face? That’s truth in advertising right there. There’s not an ounce of pretty in me. I fight, I ride—and I do it alone. So chasing the gorgeous marine biologist who wanders into my bayou hunting for wolves is not my smartest move. She’s Beauty. I’m the Beast. That story’s already been told and life’s fresh out of happy endings. Who’s coming for her… The biker who rescues me from a mud bath in the bayou, the amazingly hot but rough-around- the-edges man with the powerful motorcycle, is the stuff of fantasy. Dirty fantasies. His powerful arms, broad shoulders, and muscled thighs make me tingle in all my favorite places. He’s also grumpy, surly, and way too take- charge. So I definitely can’t eat the eye candy…. Can I? I just got out of an abusive relationship and I’m not looking for a new man. I don’t need a complication like Gator. But I don’t know how much longer I can resist him either… LONE WOLF is a sexy standalone werewolf shifter romance with more than its fair share of humor, dirty sex, and alpha males who fall in love hard.

“A talented writer with a gift for the absurd and a wicked take on life.”—January Magazine “Barclay is the master.”—The Wall Street Journal Newspaper writer, family man, and reluctant hero Zack Walker has stumbled onto some dicey stories before, but nothing like what he’s about to uncover when a mutilated corpse is found at his father’s lakeside fishing camp. As always, Zack fears the worst. And this time, his paranoid worldview is dead-on. While the locals attribute the death to a bear attack, Zack suspects something far more ominous—a predator whose weapons include arson, assault, and enough wacko beliefs to fuel a dozen hate groups. Then another body is discovered and a large supply of fertilizer goes missing, evoking memories of the Oklahoma City bombing. But it’s when he learns that his neighbor is a classic Lone Wolf—FBI parlance for a solo fanatic hell-bent on using high body counts to make political statements—that Zack realizes the idyllic town of his childhood is under siege. The fuse is lit to a catastrophe of unimaginable terror. And with time running out, Zack must face off with a madman. “Barclay is a very funny—and insightful—writer with huge potential for the long run.”—Flint Journal Review

This thrilling WWII biography tells the incredible true story of one of the Royal Air Force’s greatest flying aces. During the Second World War, Flight lieutenant Richard Playne Stevens had an extraordinary career as a Royal Air Force nightfighter. His contemporaries called him Cat’s Eyes for his rare ability to see in the dark, but after achieving a record-breaking fourteen victories in the skies—all without the aid of radar or another crew member—he earned the moniker Lone Wolf. He was also awarded a distinguished Service Order and a Distinguished Flying Cross & Bar for his service. Flt. Lt. Stevens achieved his legendary status through skill, instinct and innate marksmanship. Sir Archibald Sinclair, the Secretary of State for Air during the war, called him “one of the greatest nightfighter pilots who ever fought in Fighter Command.” Now his incredible story is told in full thanks to decades of research by military aviation historian Terry Thompson.

Set in vividly illustrated venues of our natural world, The Lone Wolves is a story about wanderings of the heart and soul by nature photographer Samantha Connor, and of Natasha, a relocated wolf in Yellowstone National Park, with whom Samantha has much in common. Struggling with her love and devotion to her deceased husband, who she believes was her one true love, Samantha is lonesome and so bound to her past that she feels she cannot free her heart to surrender to a new love, Joe Edison, a wildlife biologist whose ambition is to work with the Yellowstone wolves. Joe remains vigilant in his pursuit to woo Samantha, even when things get complicated. Unprovoked acts of greed and deceit by mystery cohorts against a wildlife animal shelter, where Samantha shares a home, evolve to include Samantha and Joe and become tests for their developing relationship, almost beyond its limits. There are also lessons to learn in loyalty and trust within the bonds of camaraderie, especially when you become the prey. In the dead of winter in Yellowstone's pristine backcountry, comes Samantha's ultimate challenge: a potentially tragic repeat of history all under the curious, and watchful eyes of Natasha.

Lark figured a weekend alone in the woods with the school’s mean girls would involve them ordering her to clean up their messes while seeing how many synonyms for “fat” they could rhyme with her name. Basically just like school, but more so. She didn’t expect them to transform into wolves in front of her eyes. Now she’s nursing a bite wound and counting down the days to the next full moon. She has one chance at a cure. One chance to get her bullies out of her life forever. There’s just one catch: the price may be the life of an innocent girl. This short story is 10,000 words long.
