    How can he solve crimes if he’s not allowed to investigate? 
    Gordon Hepler, Mapleton’s Chief of Police, has his hands full. During the groundbreaking ceremony for expansion of the community center, he discovers a dead body. Shortly afterward, the center’s CEO is assaulted. Does someone have it in for the community center and its new programs designed to benefit the homeless? Or does it have something to do with the highly contested upcoming mayoral election? 
    Frustration builds as clues and suspects fall into other jurisdictions, effectively tying Gordon’s hands. The investigation soon resembles a giant bowl of spaghetti. Can he follow the rules and still protect his city? 
    Although it’s part of a series, this police-procedural cozy-mystery blend—and all the Mapleton books—can be read as small-town stand alones.

But Melanie still agrees to organize Easter festivities at Gallagher House, the new women's shelter opened by the stern former nun, even if it takes all the jellybeans in Greenwich to sweeten the arrangement. No sooner does Melanie arrive to dye multicolor eggs and stuff baskets, than she learns devasting news about Beatrice Gallagher, the respected benefactor of the estate. Beatrice has fallen to her death, and the circumstances are shocking . . .

Facing an uncertain future as danger lurks around Gallagher House, Melanie and Aunt Rose must tolerate each other's company long enough to discover the truth about Beatrice's true nature and identify a vengeful killer—before another person's idyllic spring break becomes a serious nightmare . . .

    The Hypnotist and the Cursed Shadow 
    A chilling psychological thriller that will haunt you long after the final page. 
    They thought the nightmare was over. They were wrong. 
    When FBI agent Elliot Graves closes the case of the infamous Hypnotist—a mysterious manipulator believed to be behind a series of horrific crimes across continents—he believes justice has finally been served. But when a new wave of deaths emerges, each more twisted and unexplainable than the last, Graves is forced to confront an impossible truth: the Hypnotist never left. 
    Across countries and cultures, victims are found with the same eerie clues—blank stares, haunting smiles, and one cryptic symbol that ties them all together. As Graves and brilliant profiler Sophy Collins dig deeper, they uncover a sinister force more intelligent, more patient, and more dangerous than anything they’ve faced before. 
    With whispers of mind control, cult-like programming, and a haunting melody that triggers unspeakable acts, The Hypnotist and the Cursed Shadow is a pulse-pounding journey into the darkest corners of human psychology. 
    Perfect for fans of Stephen King, Alex Michaelides, and John Marrs, this gripping thriller will keep you turning pages late into the night.
