Sinopsis

“Slade blends crime genres like no other writer. Swastika is a clever whodunit that will challenge the sharpest readers.” —Hellnotes   It began with a corpse with a swastika carved into its forehead. Was it a neo-Nazi hate crime? Or something even more sinister? As bodies mutilated with the emblem of the Third Reich begin to pile up, the investigators of the Special X police team uncover a conspiracy that takes them deep into Germany’s dark history and a secret that lies buried to this day. A secret that some would kill to keep from getting out.    “A perfect blend of historical background, police procedure, and lightning-fast action with a dash of horror. Slade’s skill at intertwining the past and the present is uncanny. Don’t start Swastika unless you can finish it. You won’t want to put it down.” —Crimespree Magazine   “Swastika will please anyone who enjoys a good thriller with a historical bent.” —Quill & Quire   “Readers who relish monsters wearing a human face must read Michael Slade.” —Midwest Book Review   “An action-packed techno-conspiracy thriller.” —Calgary Herald   “Slade knows his trade well, and is able to get inside the head of a grizzled cop and a psychotic neo-Nazi with equal skill.” —Montreal FFWD Weekly

    Harvard dropout and ex–Special Forces operative Joe Brody is climbing the ranks in the criminal underworld. After successfully executing multiple missions for the various crime syndicates that run New York City, he has come to earn the trust and respect of the city's most dangerous denizens. Which is why his newest task—retrieving a pet pigeon snatched from a rooftop coop in Brooklyn—has Joe puzzled . . . until he learns that the bird is valued at close to a million dollars. 
     
     
     
    Joe hatches a plan to sneak into the luxury park-side apartment building where the pigeon is held captive. But that simple plan takes a deadly turn when he stumbles upon a nest of international war criminals and a ruthless building manager overseeing the nefarious operation. Fearing that Joe's entry into the building has somehow compromised the scheme, they put a bounty on his head. In New York, Joe is untouchable, but his new foes come from outside the flock, and he'll need a wing and a prayer to elude their assassins. 
     
     
     
    With high-stakes action sequences punctuated by laugh out loud humor, The Pigeon is an entertaining caper with nods to vintage crime fiction by masters like Elmore Leonard and Richard Stark. It's a perfect entry point into David Gordon's enjoyable Joe the Bouncer series, and a great continuation for returning fans.

    The newest, hottest nightclub in the city has hired Justice Security to protect its patrons from danger. Each night that the club is open, it has a rotating force of four grunts and two plainclothes personnel circulating through the paying customers, as the club manager has asked Justice Security to do. 
    Tonight, Joey Justice and Misty Wilhite have turned up in the rotation, along with up-and-comers Brandon King and Patty Ferguson. As Joey and Misty arrive, Joey goes inside, and Misty returns to the car for a forgotten item. While she's at the car, the club is taken over by a large force of armed men, and the exits are sealed. 
    Inside, the true owner of the club is revealed to be Justice Security's mortal enemy, the Mexican drug cartel leader Esteban Fernandez, who, by telephone, threatens to kill the club patrons unless Joey gives himself up and brings Misty inside. 
    Trapped inside the club with two hundred innocent people during a deadly cat-and-mouse game, Joey and his four grunts do their best to keep everyone safe and not get caught. But, with time running out, can he save everyone? 
    Inspired by the hit song, and taut with suspense, T. M. Bilderback's Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go will keep you on the edge of your seat!

    Meet SAGE POE—witch, amateur detective, and woman who's definitely rethinking her life choices. She thought the biggest challenge this Halloween would be keeping her sisters from hexing the town council. She thought wrong. 
     
     
     
    When murder strikes the annual Halloween festival, turning the corn maze into a crime scene, Sage finds herself trapped in a real-life nightmare. Her childhood friend is dead, the town is whispering, and something wicked comes this way . . . again. 
     
     
     
    Enter SHERIFF EMMET QUILL—by-the-book lawman with jawline that could cut glass and a suspicious streak when it comes to anything supernatural. He may not believe in magic, but he believes in justice . . . and possibly in Sage. 
     
     
     
    As an ancient cult emerges from the shadows and the body count rises faster than her insurance premiums, Sage realizes that some secrets are better left buried. But in Bone Gap, the past doesn't stay dead for long. 
     
     
     
    This Halloween, the maze isn't the only thing that's a-MAZE-ing.
