Beschreibung

For this week's Black Cat Weekly, Michael Bracken has acquired an original mystery by Ashley-Ruth M. Bernier, Barb Goffman found a tale by SJ Rozan that will surely satisfy crime fans, and Cynthia Ward tracked down a Matthew Hughes story. Plus, for the sheer silliness of it all, there’s a Mickey Spillane parody from 1954 (which manages to be both a mystery and fantasy…but wasn’t everything of Spillane’s?) and classics from R. Austin Freeman (a Dr Thorndyke story), a Nick Carter detective novel, and the first Skylark of Space novel by E.E. “Doc” Smith.

    A USA Today Bestselling Series! 
    Stockings are hung, lights are lit, and the annual Branson Falls holiday tradition of leaving gifts on a neighbor’s doorstep, ringing the doorbell, and running, has begun. 
    When the gifts turn from the usual baked goods to cash and other high value presents, theories about the mystery gift giver range from miracles to magic elves. Kate’s not sure who the secret Santa is, but she has some theories. 
    That’s not the only exciting thing happening for the holidays. There’s also a classy art display, a sneaky seven-year-old, and an unfortunate ugly sweater assignment. Kate’s on top of it, investigating all the naughty and nice magic for the holiday season. 
    Note 
    This is a novelette—a shorter holiday-themed side story about shenanigans in the Kate Saxee Mystery Series world. The last book in the series ended on a bit of a cliffhanger. While readers get some hints in Devilishly Short #2 about what happens next in this story, the details won’t be included until book 5. This is because some readers read the full-length novels, but not the shorts. However, if you read the short, you’ll have more information than those who don’t!

    The first Major Abel Jones Civil War mystery. “Immensely rewarding . . . irresistibly readable . . . finely wrought . . . a genuine novel of ideas.” —The Washington PostWinner of the Herodotus Award In this winning blend of history and mystery, Owen Parry brings to life the story of Abel Jones, a Welsh immigrant and Union army officer. Jones finds himself mysteriously chosen as a confidential agent to General George McClellan. No stranger to the cruel paradoxes of war, he is asked to investigate the death of Anthony Fowler, a young volunteer captain shot through the heart. Set against the backdrop of battles and bordellos, of the intrigues of war-time Washington and the elegant mansions of old Philadelphia, Faded Coat of Blue paints a deeply moving portrait of the United States in the midst of our harshest trial.   Fowler’s murder is blamed on the Confederates, but whispers haunt the death of the fallen martyr, leading Abel Jones from the blood of the battlefield into a web of secrets and sinister relationships where evil and good intertwine . . . and where heroes fall prey to those who cherished them the most. “A marvelous historical fiction work for Civil War buffs and for mystery lovers who simply appreciate a novel rich in language.” —St. Louis Post-Dispatch“Impeccably researched and energetically written . . . thoroughly believable . . . exciting, heartbreaking.” —Chicago Tribune “Jones’s narrative voice is a feast of fine language . . . ingeniously authentic.” —Publishers Weekly

    With boat tours off the coast of Alaska shut down for the winter, tour guide Stacie Calder is joining the dedicated team at the Juneau Wildlife World, a wild animal sanctuary. Along with Sasha, her husky companion, she’s prepared to spend the long season in the scenic park. But not everyone is so chipper about the newcomers—least of all, Stacie’s new manager, Oliver Brownling. He constantly gives Stacie a hard time, specifically because she brought Sasha along with her. That is, he did until his mauled body is found in a remote part of the sanctuary containing wolves. When it becomes clear that a human was responsible for the brutal murder, all eyes are on Stacie. Encouraged by her friend, Officer Liam Amaruq of the Alaskan State Troopers, Stacie is resolved to find the murderer but knows that her investigation will be difficult with the long suspect list she’s made. Did the sanctuary director plot to get rid of Oliver? Or maybe it was one of Oliver's coworkers, upset over a missed promotion? Stacie wonders about some of the newer employees, especially since Oliver’s personality made it easy to make enemies. With the weather worsening, Stacie and Sasha are forced to stay at the sanctuary with the wolves—and her colleagues. As the storm gets worse, it’s clear that this killer has a taste for blood and may strike again. Will Stacie be able to find the murderer, or will the hunter become the hunted?
