Sinossi

Attorney Jamie Quinn is on a six-month hiatus from practicing law to deal with her beloved mother's death. Rarely leaving the house, she shares most of her days with her late mother's cranky cat.
 
But soon, Jamie is forced into action by a frantic call from her Aunt Peg, whose autistic son Adam is in police custody and suspected of murdering his music teacher, a once-famous rock star named Spike.
 
It's up to Jamie to find the real killer. The problem is, Spike seems to have had more enemies than he had friends, and Adam had confessed to the murder already. Can Jamie piece together the evidence and bring the murderer to justice before it's too late?
 
A delightful, light mystery set in the small town of Hollywood, South Florida, Death By Didgeridoo is the first book in Barbara Venkataraman's Jamie Quinn Cozy Mysteries series.
Disponibile da: 02/02/2022.

    "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" is a story by Edgar Allan Poe published in Graham's Magazine in 1841. It has been recognized as the first detective story; Poe referred to it as one of his "tales of ratiocination". C. Auguste Dupin is a man in Paris who solves the mystery of the brutal murder of two women. Numerous witnesses heard a suspect, though no one agrees on what language was spoken. At the murder scene, Dupin finds a hair that does not appear to be human. Writing the first true detective in fiction, Poe's Dupin originated many literary conventions which would be used in future fictional detectives including Sherlock Holmes and Hercule Poirot. Many later characters, for example, follow Poe's model of the brilliant detective, his personal friend who serves as narrator, and the final revelation being presented before the reasoning that leads up to it. Dupin himself reappears in "The Mystery of Marie Rogêt" and "The Purloined Letter".

    Description:
    Dive into a collection of twelve standalone psychological thrillers and horror stories that challenge perception and unravel reality. Each tale is a labyrinth of fear and suspense, where nothing is as it seems and every truth hides a darker secret.
    In "Witness", a man sees a murder—only for the police to find no evidence of the crime. When the killer calls him by name, his life spirals into a nightmare: his loved ones die under mysterious circumstances, and a near-fatal accident pushes him to the edge. Then a stranger hands him a mysterious phone—its flickering screen pulling him deeper into a conspiracy where reality itself begins to crumble.
    In "Terrifying Night", a woman looking forward to a peaceful evening alone realizes she's not alone—a warm cushion and a glint of a knife in the hallway tell her someone is hiding in her home. With her husband away and danger lurking in every shadow, she must confront an intruder whose intentions are as sharp as the blade they carry.
    
    ……
    The Unseen Truths is a chilling journey through paranoia, illusion, and terror—perfect for fans who like suspense and horror.

    The Paris conference was supposed to be the biggest moment of investment banker Adam Macias's career, a chance to impress his CEO and rub shoulders with their firm's top investors. Instead, Adam arrives at a glamorous rooftop party in time to see his CEO—and his career—go up in flames when a dangerous conflagration interrupts the event. 
     
     
     
    Now Adam is a suspect in the investigation into the life-threatening arson. After all, he'd used his ID to let a suspicious woman past a security checkpoint and up to the roof just moments before the fire broke out. With the French police circling, Adam finds himself suddenly jobless and the one woman who could provide him with an alibi, his best friend and coworker Jenn, isn't returning his calls. 
     
     
     
    Adam knows that only the mysterious woman from the party can save him but, once he finally finds her, he discovers a whole new world of trouble. There's a deadly and powerful syndicate operating in the shadows of the City of Lights, and now that organization has a target on Adam's back. Lucky for him, his new companion has the instincts of a killer . . .

    Missing twin sisters. A chilling revelation. Will this be the case that breaks the Cold Case Squad? 
    Twenty years earlier, a set of female eighteen-year-old twins went missing in the Bay Area. There were no news reports or national coverage. The original investigators had barely touched the case, and like so many other cases of missing teens, were quickly labeled runaways, and the file sat on the shelf. Baffled by the lack of attention for the sisters, Martina insists it will be Hirsch and the Cold Case Squad’s next case. 
    Undeterred by the lack of prior research, the team dives into the case, employing methods of investigation and forensic technology not available twenty years earlier. This could be the case where time is actually on their side. When the team catches their first big break, the discovery of one sister’s remains and a lead on the second, they shift the case from missing persons to homicide. 
    With the news, Martina and Hirsch dig deeper into the women’s lives before they disappeared. With a no-stone-unturned approach and DNA results back from the lab, they soon find a shocking connection to one of their own. Concerned the information could jeopardize getting justice for the victims’ family, Martina and Hirsch now must work in the shadows in order to find answers to what happened all those years ago. 
    Will Martina and Hirsch be able to expose the truth without endangering themselves, their jobs, and the future of the Cold Case Squad? 
    How She Fell is the 7th installment of the twisty, fast-paced Martina Monroe crime thriller series.
