Sinossi

It's the early 1980s, and a household of lesbian feminists establish a women-only commune in an ancient Californian redwood forest.
It seems a perfect place to practise the ritual magic that helps them function harmoniously as a group – even if they aren't all true believers. By getting back to the land, they can also live more as nature intended and give the finger to the Patriarchy.
That doesn't stop jealousies arising, as Wren, an artist, nurses an unrequited crush on Robin, the land's extraordinarily generous owner. Further conflict brews as Gloria, the manipulative leader of the group, disagrees with Robin about her own rule: no men on the land.
Warm, funny and harking unashamedly back to a less toxic era, A Circle Outside is a seductive vision of a utopian dream, where the only real magic is self-transformation.

You’ll learn how to generate the gas, how to control and propel it, and how to make it smell beastly! From meek and mild through too big, bold and offensive…in fact deadly!

    “Morley Swingle’s Scoundrels to the Hoosegow is not only consistently fascinating, but there is much to be learned from it about life in and out of an American courtroom. I highly recommend this engrossing book.” Vincent Bugliosi, Author of Helter Skelter  
    In Scoundrels to the Hoosegow, a veteran prosecutor who is also a terrific storyteller shares more than thirty legal stories drawn from real life. In cases ranging from tragic to hilarious, Morley Swingle offers a behind-the-scenes look at the justice system from crime scenes to courtrooms. 
    Swingle takes readers on an enjoyable romp through crime and punishment.  Whether describing a drunk who frees dogs from the pound or a serial killer who saves lives in his day job, he combines true crime and legal analysis with a healthy dose of humor—and shares the occasional “Perry Mason moment." 
    “If Tom Wolfe’s Bonfire of the Vanities captured the essence of criminal practice in a major metropolis, then Scoundrels surely captures the essence of that practice in small town and rural America.” Robert H. Dierker, Jr. 
    “Swingle has written an interesting, easily approachable—and rare—account of daily life as a prosecuting attorney. I am unaware of any prosecutor who writes better than Swingle. The book is refreshing. Mark Twain almost certainly would have enjoyed it.” Steve Weinberg, St. Louis Post-Dispatch 
    “Morley Swingle is a terrific writer and an even better entertainer. Lawyers and non-lawyers alike will enjoy being along for this informative and entertaining trip to the hoosegow.” Forward, Reviews of Indie Books 
    “Those who read Ann Rule, Joe McGinniss or John Grisham will enjoy this book.” Lithuanian Librarian

    In Death Makes A Mistake, P. F. Costello delivers a witty, noir-tinged comedy of errors that follows the hapless Reggie Van Fiddler as he stumbles into a most unfortunate appointment—with Death himself. Reggie, a cocktail-loving bon vivant with a knack for bad timing, finds his leisurely day at the club disrupted by the unsettling presence of Mr. Demise, a small, impeccably dressed man claiming to be Death’s emissary. 
    What follows is a hilarious series of misadventures as Reggie, more annoyed than afraid, scrambles to outwit his unwanted visitor. But as it turns out, even Death can have an off day. Between bureaucratic blunders, misplaced assignment books, and one too many martinis, Mr. Demise proves himself less an ominous specter and more a bumbling rookie on his first job. 
    With a delightful mix of supernatural satire and detective pulp charm, Death Makes A Mistake is a fast-paced romp through life, death, and the perils of poor paperwork. 
    Perfect for fans of vintage noir comedies, Douglas Adams-style dark humor, and anyone who enjoys watching Death get flustered.
