  B&B owner Charlene Morris expects Salem's first annual mermaid parade will make quite a splash, until a high-profile murder threatens to sink the whole event . . .  
   
   
   
  Charlene and her handsome spectral friend, Dr. Jack Strathmore, are thrilled that their Salem, Massachusetts, B&B is overflowing with mermaids in advance of the town's newest attraction—a mermaid parade! Retired Hollywood actress Trinity Powers has even agreed to appear on the lead float to commemorate her breakout role as the eponymous mermaid in the blockbuster cult classic, Sirena. The parade also features Trinity's rival, an up-and-coming ingénue, who stars in the film's recent (and somewhat controversial) reboot. Though their rabid fan clubs seem ready to tear each other—and the festivities—apart, the vying actresses are keeping it cool, for now . . .  
   
   
   
  But when Charlene discovers a mermaid murdered, she realizes a killer is out to steal the show. With the help of Jack and Detective Sam Holden, Charlene plunges into the case, determined to stop a killer from striking again . . .

  Too late to find a missing man, are Irish detectives in time to catch his killer? 
   
  It is only a passing comment in the post office in a remote part of Western Ireland that alerts police to the disappearance of Davin Faherty. But foul play is established when his unceremoniously wrapped corpse turns up in a bog. 
   
  His brother falls under suspicion, but why kill over a near-useless piece of grazing land? 
   
  DI Maureen Lyons leads the investigation but relies on trusty Mulholland, the old-school local policeman stationed in Clifden, for the legwork. 
   
  She has other problems: an illegal cannabis farm and a prospector from a US minerals company who won’t take no for an answer. 
   
  Ultimately, however, DI Lyons will need to get her hands dirty before the killer vanishes into the coastal mist. 
   
  MURDER IN AN IRISH BOG is the eleventh title in the best-selling police mystery series set in Galway on the west coast of Ireland by David Pearson.

  Touch is sensational suspense from the master of crime fiction, New York Times bestselling author Elmore Leonard.  
  A Michigan woman was blind and now she can see, after being touched by a young man who calls himself Juvenal. Maybe it was just coincidence, but Bill Hill—who used to run the spectacular Uni-Faith Ministry in Dalton, Georgia, and now sells RVs—can see dollar signs when he looks at this kid with the magic “touch.” 
  The trouble is that others see them also, including a wacko fundamentalist fascist with his own private army of the faithful and an assortment of media leeches. But everyone who’s looking to put the touch on the healer is in for a big surprise—because Juvenal’s got a trick or two up his sleeve that nobody sees coming.

  “Into his fateful heap of days the soul of man is cast.” 
  Only a few months from his fiftieth year, Nikolas is feeling a distinct wobble in his formidable certainties. Aleksey Primakov appears to have become irrelevant. All he needs, therefore, is to be dragged into an adventure with Devon's answer to the three musketeers. How many times can he tell Ben and his moronic friends that a mutilated body buried on Dartmoor has nothing to do with them? But not only does this desecration slowly become their business, it cuts to the heart of the life they have created together. It's just as well, perhaps, that Generals never do actually retire...

  Alec’s luck has always come with strings attached—and this time, they might just tie him to his own downfall.
   
  With a mangled hand and a debt to his past, Alec needs two things before Ace’s big party: a clean bill of health and a trustworthy ally. But in a city where loyalty is bought and sold faster than a hand of cards, trust is a luxury he can’t afford.
   
  Enter Fredrick—a bruised, broad-shouldered ex-linebacker with secrets of his own. Together, they form an uneasy alliance, gambling on each other’s strength and the promise of a treasure that could change everything.
   
  When a shady doctor and his too-perfect nurse blur the line between help and hustle, Alec realizes every deal has a catch—and every favor, a cost. As the countdown to Ace’s party ticks away, Alec must decide whether to play it safe or go all in on the riskiest hand of his life.
   
  Because in this game, even the King of Spades can lose his crown.
