    Meet Dr. Newton Barlow, a charismatic scientist whose world is about to be turned upside down. Picture Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett's "Good Omens" mingled with the wit of Christopher Moore, and you've got "The Unhappy Medium." 
    Dr. Barlow seemed to have it all: a renowned career in the lab and on TV, a glamorous wife by his side, and an unshakable belief that the supernatural was nothing more than outright lies and wishful thinking. But life has a funny way of humbling even the most self-assured of individuals, and Barlow's reckoning is about to unfold. 
    Accused of fraud and shunned by the scientific community, Barlow finds himself stripped of his fame, expelled from the family home, and cast out from his once lofty perch. Three despair-filled years pass, drowning his sorrows in wine, until an unexpected glimmer of hope emerges. Dr. Sixsmith, Barlow's equally skeptical mentor, approaches him with an extraordinary proposition and with nothing left to lose, Barlow has little choice but to accept. 
    There's just one tiny, itsy-bitsy obstacle standing in his way—Sixsmith is dead. 
    In a desperate bid to save both this world and the next, can Dr. Barlow set aside his cherished beliefs and confront the impossible? Brace yourself for a raucous rollercoaster ride through the realms of life, death, and that peculiar bit in between. 
    If you're a fan of Douglas Adams' zany humor, Terry Pratchett's fantastical worlds, or the imaginative tales of Tom Holt, Ben Aaronovitch, and Jim Butcher, then "The Unhappy Medium" is an absolute must-read. Bursting with unforgettable characters, a gripping mystery, heart-pounding action, and sidesplitting humor, this book has it all. 
    If you're ready for a journey that will tickle your funny bone and captivate your imagination, then "The Unhappy Medium" is your ticket to an uproarious good time.

But while her grandson Bram Haverstein may appear to simply be a somewhat eccentric gentleman of means, a mysterious career and a secret fascination with a certain actress mean there's much more to him than society knows. Lucetta, who has no interest in Abigail's matchmaking machinations, has the best intentions of remaining cordial but coolly distant to Bram. But when she can't ignore the strange and mysterious things going on in his house, it'll take more than good intentions to keep her from trying to discover who he is behind the part he plays.

    If you enjoy intricate mysteries that span several generations like Netflix's series Dark, then check out The Library today! 
    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“The plot is intricate, while also being easy to follow...The paranormal aspect is well done. While not the central focus, the ghosts offer just enough to give Mark — and readers — something to think about.” — Quiet Fury Reviews 
    In 1934, the body of a beautiful, but poor young woman was found alongside a riverbank near The Depot. Beaten to a pulp, only recognizable by a tattoo on her ankle, and yet, days after the discovery, the story all but disappears. 
    Eighty years later, locals claim The Depot is haunted. But in all the years homicide detective Mark Waters has visited the historic 1800s train station turned restaurant, he's never seen proof. Until now. 
    As he sifts through evidence of a supposed suicide by train, he learns a murder that took place eighty years ago may directly affect his case. 
    Six months after the strange occurrences at The Depot, there's another murder. This time, The Library holds secrets of several murders, and the dead won't rest until the murderer checks out too. 
    Note: The Library (Where Life Checks Out) is a 50k-word follow-up novel to The Depot (When Life and Death Cross Tracks), which is included in this special edition so readers who haven't read The Depot won't miss anything.
