    When Pine Hills, Ohio, hosts an inter-town murder mystery game, bookstore-café owner and sometimes-sleuth Krissy Hancock assumes it'll all be in good fun, but that's before the competition claims its first real-life victim . . . 
     
     
     
    The unique weekend-long event—a combination of a live-action role playing game and a theatrical production—draws competitors from all the neighboring towns, including Pine Hills' own Krissy and Rita. Although the actors, clues, and performances are spread across the community, somehow Krissy's team lands at the one location with an actual body . . . 
     
     
     
    Police immediately call-off the competition while they conduct a real murder investigation, but soon it's clear some folks are playing by their own set of rules. So it's up to Krissy and her pals to shuffle through the suspects and draw out the real killer before another player takes their final turn.

    When Jesse McDermitt leaves the Marine Corps, he has no idea what he will do for the rest of his life. He only knows he doesn't want to spend the coming winter anywhere cold. His greatest skill is killing people from up to a mile away and he knows there aren't many job opportunities in the civilian world for that. 
    Jesse also knows his way around boats and has an old friend living free and easy in the Florida Keys. Being an experienced diver and angler, he immediately heads south toward Key West and the end of the road. 
    With a single comment, a waitress in a waterfront restaurant in north Key Largo shakes loose a long dormant dream and Jesse runs with it. With the help of friends, new and old, he buys just the right boat to live on and soon starts a part time charter business. Everything is going smoothly, until a Carolina girl and a hurricane hit him at the same time. 
    Danger lurks in the sleepy little town of Marathon, in the middle of the Florida Keys, as well as in the swamps of the Everglades. But danger doesn't expect to run into a man like Jesse. A man who will not only respond swiftly in facing it, but with a vengeance unexpected.

    Amazing Grant has kept her distance from her mobster family, while entombing her own less-than-savory past. Until now. 
    With her fugitive grandfather on the lam, the clan's attention focuses on Amazing (Maze) and the ancient journal her great-grandfather secretly passed down to her. Maze's relatives are convinced she's hiding the precious book, and now that they're no longer under the watchful eye of their patriarch, they summon her to Paris for an interrogation. 
    Facing threats to her fiancé, and an Interpol general using her criminal past to blackmail her, Maze devises a take-down of her entire family. The only thing worse than dragging the people she loves into her battle is discovering the sinister reason the Grant family wants the heirloom journal to remain buried. 
    From San Francisco to Paris, twists and turns take Maze through grave danger with vengeful criminals. Once the final showdown takes place in Scotland, murder is on everyone's mind.
