Synopsis

Sometimes good fortune brings along romance... and danger. 
 
After the sudden death of Mrs. York, Abby inherits a great deal of money and Ivy, her employee, receives the woman's house. This good fortune creates suspicion when the authorities determine Mrs. York was murdered. Ivy discovers several diaries in her new house, penned by Mrs. York, which expose secrets in the old woman's past. Will the diaries vindicate Abby and Ivy, or make matters worse?
 
The ladies at the salon welcome a nail tech named Poppy, whose personality and wild clothing choices suit her name. But when something changes in Poppy's  attitude, Abby must find the answer in order to bring peace back to her salon.
 
Complicating Abby's life further is ex-boyfriend Jack. Now a lieutenant at the Daytona Beach Police Department, his investigation into Mrs. York's murder makes life uncomfortable for Abby. But then, after Abby is attacked, Jack begins displaying a gentler side uncharacteristic of his former self that Abby remembers all too well. Is this a new Jack, or is this change just an act?
 
The second book in the Daytona Beach Mysteries series by Janie Owens, THE PALMETTO DIARIES is a story about secrets, greed, and love.

The death of the boy leaves the small town of Webster horror-stricken. Forty years ago, another little boy was found killed in that exact same house.

    Moving, sexy, and archly funny, Gina Apostol's Philippine National Book Award–winning Bibliolepsy is a love letter to the written word and a brilliantly unorthodox look at the rebellion that brought down a dictatorship. 
     
     
      
    Gina Apostol's debut novel, available for the first time in the US, tells of a young woman caught between a lifelong desire to escape into books and a real-world revolution. 
     
     
      
    It is the mid-eighties, two decades into the kleptocratic, brutal rule of Ferdinand Marcos. The Philippine economy is in deep recession, and civil unrest is growing by the day. But Primi Peregrino has her own priorities: tracking down books and pursuing romantic connections with their authors. 
     
     
      
    For Primi, the nascent revolution means that writers are gathering more often, and with greater urgency, so that every poetry reading she attends presents a veritable "Justice League" of authors for her to choose among. As the Marcos dictatorship stands poised to topple, Primi remains true to her fantasy: that she, "a vagabond from history, a runaway from time," can be saved by sex, love, and books.

    A seaside town on its knees. 
    A group hell bent on making it a better place, by KILLING. 
    Can DCI Walker stop whoever it is before things get completely out of hand?  
    When the Head Clown at Blackpool Tower Circus turns up dead in suspicious circumstances, a criminal investigation ensues, headed by DCI Walker. But when another body turns up just days later, with the same modus operandi, the double homicide becomes the talk of the town. The murderer, calling himself The Defender, wants people to be kinder to each other, and he’s prepared to kill to make it happen. 
    Sometimes, you have to be cruel to be kind. 
    What starts as a cat and mouse chase soon transforms into a stampede—the Kindness Matters Movement emerges via an online forum, and things start to get complicated. It comes to a head on Bonfire Night, when a small army of copycats and followers do the bidding of their Defender, leading to a night of death and destruction. With the town on red alert, the so-called mastermind of these acts surprises everyone again; only this time, no-one is complaining, except for Walker and his team, that is. 
    "An unsettling but highly entertaining thriller." SRP Editorial Review ★★★★★ 
    Fans of Ian Rankin, JD Kirk, Matt Brolly, Tim Sullivan, and LJ Ross will love this! 
    The Tower is the third book in the stunning debut police procedural crime thriller from JJ Richards (*although it can be read as a stand-alone).
