  Mysteria, a small fishing island located just off the coast of Oregon. Covered in dense forests, its isolation is exactly what award-winning author Cameron Drake is looking for. After an amicable divorce he moves to the island from England, in an attempt to reignite his writing career.  However, Cameron's arrival begins with a strange encounter on a deserted road, and leads to a series of hauntings that force him to question his sanity and investigate its history. As the community around him slowly vanishes, it appears Mysteria is not everything it seems.  Aided by his loyal pet, Akando, an Alaskan malamute, Cameron descends into the strange world of the paranormal. Slowly, he begins to believe the hauntings are an attempt to warn of a fate that will befall the island and its remaining occupants.  A quest of witchcraft, Ouija boards and contact with the dead awaits Cameron, but as he investigates deeper, the island's secret becomes clear.

  The Agatha Award-winning mystery inspired by the Wright Brothers' real-life sister! 
   
   
   
  While not as famous as her older siblings Wilbur and Orville, the celebrated inventors of flight, Katharine Wright is equally inventive—especially when it comes to solving crimes—in this radiant historical mystery by USA Today bestselling author Amanda Flower. 
   
   
   
  Summer 1904. Katharine and her best friend, Margaret Goodwin Meacham, are thrilled to attend the St. Louis Exposition for the centennial celebration of the Louisiana Purchase. Not only is it a grand event, it's also the first time the young women have traveled together alone, and they are giddy with excitement—despite warnings from Katharine's family friend, poet Paul Laurence Dunbar, to be careful. 
   
   
    
  Undaunted, the girls have a lovely time—until the exposition turns from a girls' trip to a misadventure when they stumble upon a woman in distress. It's obvious that she has been attacked. Katharine and Margaret do their best to save her, but the woman dies. Yet just before her last breath, she utters the words Aeronautics Competition. Katharine's brothers, Wilbur and Orville, were asked to enter the competition with their successful 1903 flyer but declined. Katharine, of course, knows they would have won and has confidently said so to anyone who will listen. 
   
   
    
  Now, unable to get the woman's face out of her mind, Katharine can't help wondering whether her death could somehow be connected to her brothers' flying machine. Katharine convinces Margaret to join her investigation—and it's soon clear that someone will stop at nothing to get the Wrights' invention to the masses. But with Katherine on the case, they may be in for a hard fall.

  The first book in the "outstanding" British police procedural series—the basis for the long-running BBC series featuring the Yorkshire detective duo (The New York Times). 
   
   
    
  Reginald Hill "raised the classical British mystery to new heights" when he introduced pugnacious Yorkshire Det. Inspector Andrew Dalziel and his partner, the callow Sgt. Peter Pascoe (The New York Times Book Review). Their chafing differences in education, manners, technique, and temperament made them "the most remarkable duo in the annals of crime fiction" (Toronto Star). The Gold Dagger Award–winning series was adapted into a long-running hit show for the BBC. 
   
   
    
  Mary Connon froze out her husband, Sam, long ago. She likes the attention of other men—like the fellow members of Sam's rugby club. Naturally, when she's found dead in her sitting room with a hole in her head, Sam is a suspect. If only he hadn't suffered a dizzying scrum injury that's left everything a blur. He isn't sure that he didn't kill her. But Det. Inspector Andrew Dalziel and his partner, Peter Pascoe, are looking outside the unhappy home. Because it seems everyone within spitting distance of the suburban femme fatale—from prying neighbors to spurned lovers to jealous wives—wanted Mary dead. As the field of play expands, so do the motives . . .
