Summary

The first three books in Doug Lamoreux's Nod Blake Mysteries series, now available in one volume!
 
Corpses Say The Darndest Things: After the wife of a beloved Chicago televangelist dies, aging private eye Nod Blake gets dumped in the middle of it - on his head. Blake believes dead people are talking to him, but are the victims really begging the gumshoe for help from the other side of the grave? When Blake's nemesis, Detective Lieutenant Wenders, finds evidence that Blake is the murderer, the private dick's life becomes a great big soup sandwich.
 
Red Herrings Can't Swim: The cynical, wise-cracking private eye is back. From beyond the grave, victims of crimes past are begging for Blake to solve their murders. Meanwhile, in the real world, he's flummoxed by vandals, threats to his life, raucous suspects and a homicide detective happy to pin killings on him.
 
Murder Can Be A Mistake: Once again, Nod Blake has been dumped in the midst of murder most foul. He is psychically besieged by victims, begging him from beyond the grave to solve their murders. In the real world, he has to deal with an anonymous blackmailer, death-defying stunt men - and a homicide detective who seems to think that Blake is behind it all.

    A Short, Shuddery Tale 
A story that shows how powerful a dream can be. Very chilling, especially if you don't like snakes. A short and sweet nightmare highlighting his fascination with dreams, reincarnation and other spiritualist/occult subjects. Howard's storytelling powers are just as good at capturing the helplessness of a horror victim as they are with narrating the exploits of swashbuckling heroes.

He offers Tanz an irresistible proposition: return to Iceland with him for an all-expenses-paid writing retreat and some no-strings-attached fun.Promised a mix of work, play and maybe a bit of romance, Tanz follows her heart (and the voices in her head) off to Iceland on a whim; but when she arrives, she quickly realises that Einar and his charm might not be all they're cracked up to be.Heartbroken, abandoned and left to the mercy of the long, haunting nights, Tanz finds herself surrounded not just by the rugged beauty of a land steeped in legend but also the mysteries that lurk in its shadows. With only the dead for guidance, Tanz is thrust back into the heart of a chilling cold case, where the echoes of the forgotten and the allure of old magic compel her to listen, to understand and to act. . .

    The Death of Halpin Frayser is a Gothic fever dream wrapped in mist and mystery. Set between California's redwoods and the haunted hills of Tennessee, Ambrose Bierce's macabre tale follows a young poet who awakens from a nightmare only to find reality far more terrifying. A wandering spirit, a cryptic mother, a whispered name in the dark—Bierce unravels the border between dream and death with chilling precision.
