Prussian in Peril

Sinopsis

Osiris may be descended from Egyptian Pharaoh cats, but even he’s not above solving a mystery ... With his new human owners Pepper Park and Lucas Havers, can they solve the case when an attractive female cat and her owner go missing while on holiday on the French Riviera?
 
After one innocent little vacation, my life gets turned upside down. I visit a quaint little British village and end up sort of dating a rich British billionaire who owns, Osiris, a cat that saved my life before a murderer would have had his second victim.
 
Naturally, Osiris adopted me as his and since I sort of have a crazy crush on Lucas, I’m not about to turn down an offer to vacation with him and Osiris in a fancy hotel on the French Riviera. But our plans to have a nice quiet vacation go out the window when we meet a young woman and her lovely Russian Blue Cat who she nicknamed “the Prussian”.
 
When our new friend and her furry companion go missing, a host of suspects pop up and the bodies start to drop around us. What’s a girl to do but solve a murder right?

Holmes is visited by Mrs. Merrilow, a landlady from South Brixton who has an unusual lodger who never shows her face. She saw it once accidentally and it was hideously mutilated. This woman, formerly very quiet, has recently taken to cursing in the night, shouting "Murder, murder!" and "You cruel beast! You monster!" Also, her health has taken a turn for the worse, and she is wasting away. Mrs. Merrilow has brought this case to Holmes's attention as her tenant, Mrs. Ronder, will not involve the clergy or the police in something that she would like to say. She has told her landlady to mention Abbas Parva, knowing that Holmes would understand the reference.

Love Pop: Part 1

Willie Alsedek

When Eliot’s wife pops from the inside out, he’s left with a question no detective, cult leader, or scientist can answer: why her — and why now? As strangers follow the mess to explode without reason, Eliot finds himself caught in a surreal investigation that makes less sense the deeper it goes. The police are baffled. The news is trembling. And somewhere between sleep and waking, love is washing off the blood. 
Darkly funny, strangely romantic, and unsettlingly familiar, Love Pop is a postmodern, speculative mystery and metaphysical thriller about love, loss, and the quiet apocalypse of meaning. 
It’s not the end of the world — just the messy part in between.
