    This action-packed crime story is not your typical ‘who done it’ mystery novel. We know from the start who did it, but now the witness to the crime becomes the new prey. While the killer tries to eliminate the witness, he himself is being preyed upon and must watch his own back.  
    Kenny Lloyd, while enjoying the solitude of nature witnesses a murder from his hunting stand in the middle of a secluded North Louisiana forest. Almost discovered by the murderer, he wants to do the right thing by reporting what he saw, but he soon discovers that word gets around pretty fast in a small southern town; so fast that within hours, the hunter is now the hunted. 
    The killer is on Kenny’s trail from the moment he reports the crime and will stop at nothing to make him disappear including locking him inside his own camper trailer and towing him away for termination. But Kenny, not intent on being a scared, passive victim, turns his fear and anger into action by implementing his own plans against the killer. 
    He trusts no one until he meets Carrie, a smart, striking young doctor who he surreptitiously enlists to aid him in his pursuit of the murderer. But as their affection and romance grows, so does the danger to Carrie’s life. 
    Lives are often intertwined in a southern small town which makes for intriguing and troublesome complications. Even the Sheriff, while trying to protect Kenny and pursue this ruthless killer, discovers that he is linked to the killer’s past and must decide whether to exceed his law enforcement boundaries to end this killer’s mission.

    Imogene's client has a special request. The only hitch is, the client is dead. 
     
     
     
    It's an ordinary day at Harry's Hair Stop until Imogene hears her favorite client's dying wish. Two days later, she finds herself in the embalming room at Greener Pastures Mortuary, bottle of hair dye and scissors in hand. 
     
     
     
    Styling her client's hair for the funeral is creepy. She'd expected that. But she hadn't expected the body to buzz like it was loaded with corpse caffeine. Was it her imagination, or was something more sinister at play? Determined to prove her sanity, she teams up with the mortuary's handsome night watchman to investigate. 
     
     
     
    Through a series of hair-raising twists, they discover the client's death, just like her hair color, wasn't as natural as everyone thought. In fact, this was only one in a string of murders. Someone is killing off the residents of Liberty Grove. It's up to Imogene to find the murderer before the murderer finds her. 
     
     
     
    If you can imagine Agatha Raisin as a twenty-something, rockabilly, hairstylist with a weird connection to the dead, this book is for you.

    The year is 2074. For a decade, the technology for mind upload has existed. Anyone who wants to – and has the means to do so – can now stave off death by having their brain scanned and uploaded to the grid; a virtual, digital world. Society is divided over the new technology, but Anders Helmemyr, one of the proponents of the transhumanist movement, is hopeful. He dreams of a day when this technology will be available to everyone. 
    When a devastating terrorist strike rocks the world, Tiina Björk, expert investigator at the Swedish Security Service, is assigned to a manhunt for a mysterious hacker suspected of being involved in the attacks. But the investigation creates more questions than it does answers, and the curious interest from other security services suggests all is not as it seems, and something much bigger is going on. 
    Introdus is the second book from Swedish computer scientist and sci-fi writer David Sikter’s epic trilogy Let There Be Gods, a compelling and evocative vision of the future of humanity in the age of sentient machines.

    Welcome to beautiful Sunrise Bay, where the beach is hot and the corpses are cold . . .  
     
    When Charlie Carter catches her fiancé cheating with her best friend, she swaps power suits for swimsuits and moves to the idyllic seaside town of Sunrise Bay. Maybe a dose of vitamin sea can cure her broken heart. 
    Beautiful beaches aren't the little town's only attractions. It's also the home of her feisty retired aunt, who soon has Charlie surrounded by new friends and fulfilling a lifelong dream of becoming a photographer. Everything is going swimmingly until Aunt Evie's book club pal Peggy turns up deader than Charlie's engagement. 
    Aunt Evie is convinced it was murder and will make waves big enough to swamp the whole retirement village unless Charlie does something about it. Charlie's not convinced, but the more she discovers, the more she suspects that Aunt Evie is right—as usual. Now Charlie—with the help of one inquisitive four-legged neighbor—must use her keen photographer's eye to spot the killer . . . before they take her out of the picture.
