  A policeman's lot is not a happy one or so the song goes, but throw in the IRA, loyalist paramilitaries, the British army and a Republican hunger strike, and it gets a whole lot worse. Carson Clarke, Jim Reid and their colleagues in the RUC are charged with policing a provincial town in Derry, arguably the most dangerous environment in the developed world. They're trained to deal with car accidents and shoplifters, but history and politics just keep getting in the way as a series of shootings and bombings bring Northern Ireland to the brink of civil war. Their job gradually becomes a struggle to survive, and just keeping sane gets difficult as, bit by bit, their world collapses around them.
  Written with the authenticity of someone who served as a police officer in Northern Ireland at the time, and who lived through and experienced similar events. This book was also written very close in time to the historical events and carries the authenticity of the dialogue and thinking employed by the characters.

  How do you survive a season of fear? 
  October is a hard month for Rae Riley's family. Her dad, Sheriff Walter "Mal" Malinowski lost his wife and father then. This year, the Malinowskis confront even more heartache. 
  Rae's Uncle Hank fights for his life after his stallion falls on him. Twelve-year-old Coral says a monster spooked her dad's stallion. His other daughter, Amber, is convinced she let everyone down during the effort to rescue Hank because she became hysterical. 
  During this crisis, Rae's friendship with Deputy Chris Kincaid turns into something more. A family feud erupts at a local Halloween attraction, The Haunting in the Hollow, staged on land once owned by Cyrus Morley, a wealthy dabbler in the occult. He hid a fortune in cash and jewels with the only clues a three-word note and the poem "Eldorado" by Edgar Allen Poe. 
  Rae and Amber work to unravel the 70-year-old riddle so their great aunt Lily and her kids can inherit a fortune. But other heirs are interested and  Lily's son Jack would never share anything he finds. 
  The story of Coral's monster brings a bigfoot hunter to the county who ignores private property laws. Rae fears for Amber, who keeps putting her safety at risk to prove her courage, like confronting Jack when he fights with his ex-girlfriend, sketchy medium Lyra Vex. 
  Then Cyrus's only living child, Timothy Morley, hires Lyra to conduct a séance to contact his father and reveal the location of the treasure. When Lyra uncovers a second clue, it looks like Rae and Amber's treasure hunt is over. 
  But the day after the séance, Lyra is found dead. Did one of the heirs kill her? Or was it her jealous ex-boyfriend Jack? As Mal's investigation goes nowhere, Rae learns there's only way one way to survive all the fears the family faces. And only one way to unmask a killer.

  It’s summer festival time in Confection, Oregon, and that means a barrage of tourists are making cash registers ring at Sweet Fiction Bookshop. But what should be bookseller Lexi’s most lucrative time of year turns disturbing when a member of the chamber of commerce suddenly dies of a heart attack. It’s not entirely unexpected—considering her family history—but it’s a different story when another chamber member dies just one week later…also, presumably, of natural causes. Something about this doesn’t read right to Lexi. And it gets more unfathomable when her friend Dash—who dated both women—stands accused of murder! With Cookie, her lovable border-collie mix, at her side and countless volumes of inspiration on her shelves, Lexi opens the book on another perplexing case. Who could have murdered two prominent townspeople without leaving even a hint of evidence on the scene? And why is an irksome-but-intriguing detective always seeming to catch her and Cookie working the case? Lexi’s Confection Rose-colored glasses come off when she learns of thorny discussions among the council members involving a string of secretive real-estate transactions. Enlisting her faithful fellow members of the Macaroon Book Club, she sets out to bind the clues together and clear Dash’s name. But if she can’t devise a clever trap for the real killer, she may soon end up with a very unhappily ever after of her own.
