Beschreibung

This issue, we have a pair of original mysteries (by Ron Miller and Shannon Taft, the latter two thanks to our Acquiring Editor Barb Goffman), and our mystery novel is a Victorian-era sensation novel by Florence Warden. Of course, there’s a solve-it-yourself puzzler from Hal Charles, too.
 
Our fantasy and science fiction section is heavier than usual on fantasy, with an Australian tale by Ernest Favenc, a dark fantasy by British master John Glasby, and a supernatural novel by E.F. Benson. Science fiction fans will enjoy classic pulp adventures by Edmond Hamilton and Arthur Leo Zagat. Fun stuff!

    Her dad said nothing could hurt their relationship. But what if he isn't her dad? 
    Summer gets off to a rocky start for twenty-year-old Rae Riley when con man Uncle Troy returns to Marlin County, Ohio. Rae's father, Sheriff Walter "Mal" Malinowski, warns her to steer clear of Troy, who conned 5 cousins from the outlaw branch of the family to jump him a few years ago. 
    But it seems like wherever Rae goes, Troy lurks on the edges. When she and her cousins find Troy beat up outside a local mall, Rae's desire to help anyone in trouble kicks in. But this only leads to trouble and the horrible conclusion that Troy might be her birth father. Even worse, Mal is angry at Rae for endangering them all. 
    Then Ashley, the ex-wife of family friend Jason Carlisle returns to the county, claiming their youngest child Sylvie isn't his, but the daughter of her new fiancé. Ashley and her boyfriend say they are staying at the state park so she can see her children. Jason fears they want to sneak a DNA sample from Sylvie and hires Rae's aunt Carrie, a PI, to protect his kids. 
    When Rae agrees to help Ashley speak to Jason secretly, Mal is furious, leading to Rae's first fight with her newly found father. Although Mal apologizes, Rae senses a gulf between. What would happen if Rae found proof Mal wasn't her dad? 
    When Ashley disappears, Jason and his brother Rick are the main suspects. Mal leads the official investigation, while Rae and Carrie work to discover what really happened, and Rae conducts her own research into Troy's claim. 
    The clues mount up and the mystery only grows murkier. As doubts grow into a storm, Rae is faced with something much worse than a puzzle--a battle to survive. And it's not just her life at stake.

    Jimmy’s relationship with Diana has never been better, but then she gets control of the Southside Endowment.

    “Possession" is a soft-boiled detective novella with some sci-fi and fantasy elements, sort of a The Rockford Files meets The Avengers (the old BBC series, not the superheroes.) It’s eighth in the Detective Jimmy Delaney series.

    She’ll do anything to protect her family… 
    From the moment I met Nathan, a widower with two small children, I knew I would do anything for him. Sam and Sienna were both desperate for a mother and I knew I was perfect for them. I would raise them as my own, love them like my own. 
    I would die for them. 
    So when a missing teenager is found lying on the side of the road, my first through is for my precious kids. Are they home? Are they safe? 
    And then I discover something much worse. That the children I’ve raised could somehow be involved… 
    But I made a promise that I would protect my family at all costs. 
    Even if the consequences are deadly….

    Some secrets keep a couple together. 
     
     
     
    If you ask Jill Tingley, she'll tell you she and her husband Jack are college sweethearts living the dream in Southern California. Wealthy, popular and genetically blessed, theirs is an enviable life, though they've grown distant in recent years. Newly empty nesting with their daughter Maggie away at college, Jill suggests a road trip to reconnect. 
     
     
     
    Jack would rather do anything else than drive to Utah with his wife. He's only stayed in this marriage because of a shared secret, a tragedy in the past he wanted to keep buried. And for his daughter's sake. But Jack is finished with the charade of his marriage. He's filing for divorce as soon as they return, no matter what. 
     
     
     
    But he doesn't realize what else Jill is hiding. 
     
     
     
    So begins a cat-and-mouse road trip as a cunning wife—think Ripley in yoga pants—and a reluctant husband match wits and drive each other to the edge. But everything will be fine. Jill still loves Jack and believes he's the only one for her. She’ll do anything to keep him. Anything. She always has.
