It's Been Such a Long Time

Davina Lee

Sinossi

Amanda Johnson leads a comfortable life. She's married to a successful businessman and her daughter is grown and off blazing her own bright trail in the business world, leaving Amanda free to fill her days volunteering at the local charity thrift shop. It isn't an exciting life but it's secure, and most days Amanda is content to accept the path that she has chosen.
But all of that changes one day when a woman walks in with a crate full of LP records to donate. As Amanda flips through the stack, there's one album in particular that drags her back to an alcohol-fueled senior year summer outing and a bonfire where she kissed a girl on a dare. She doesn't know it yet, but that very same girl is standing in front of her, all grown up now and peering into Amanda's eyes over a crate of vintage vinyl. 
There's a flash of recognition and Amanda begins to wonder what her life would have been like if she had followed her heart instead of everyone's expectations. What if she had turned left instead of right, zigged instead of zagged? Would she be happier than she is now? And when given the chance to do it all again, will she have the courage to change her decision and follow her heart?

A Deadly Game of Malice

Paul Alan Fahey

It's spring 1942. Caroline Graham is six months pregnant, overweight, irritable, and most decidedly bored with her "delicate" condition. She hates being tied down and resents her husband Cyril and her cousin Edward for being off on assignment and having fun while she's confined to the village. She grows more restless each day, and her good friend and confidant Leslie Atwater does his best to boost her spirits but fails miserably. What Caroline needs is a problem to solve, "something juicy" to challenge her mind. And, of course, that's exactly what she gets.
Be careful what you wish for. 
First there's a rash of poison pen letters circulating in the village. Librarian Elspeth Hunter receives a letter, and is the first to die, presumably by her own hand. Other deaths follow. Are the sudden deaths connected to the letters? As weeks pass and the bodies mount, Caroline and Leslie discover a pattern that suggests something more sinister is at work. With Leslie's help, Caroline must use all her cunning and put her life at risk to uncover a cold-blooded murderer -- a remorseless killer who continues to raise the stakes in a deadly game of malice.

Nowhere Else to Go

Tinnean

Mark Vincent, who's WBIS, and Quinton Mann, who's CIA to the core, have been adversaries since the day they crossed paths while on assignment, and by rights, it should have been no problem for one to shoot the other. But for some reason, neither ever does, even when it causes problems at their agencies.
However, someone resents the respect they have for each other and sets out to teach Quinn a lesson, having him attacked one night on his own front lawn. Quinn is able to escape the situation, despite how badly beaten he is, but he needs a safe place to shelter in. He won't endanger family or friends. Where does that leave him?
Mark answers his door one night to find Quinton barely able to stand, looking nothing like the suave spook he was used to crossing swords with. After he makes sure there's no one lurking in the area, Mark brings Quinn into his apartment and calls a friend to take care of him. Mann might be a spook, but he's Mark's spook, and no one hurts him and goes scot-free.
