  Death doesn't mean what it once did to Bridget Sway. 
   
   
   
  When Bridget Sway's friend is murdered during a seance, Bridget and her best friend, Sabrina, vow to bring the killer to justice. The problem? The seance took place in the alive world which means the killer is very likely a livie. And they have no jurisdiction in the livie world. 
   
   
   
  With very few options of how to proceed, Bridget and Sabrina decide to shadow the livie detective as he investigates the death. 
   
   
   
  With this livie detective's unintentional help, will Bridget and Sabrina be able to identify the killer or will the murderer cross mortal lines and make doubly dead ghosts out of Bridget and Sabrina to cover their tracks?

  Christmas lights on palm trees and Santa hats on plastic pink flamingoes are far from the snowy landscape Maureen and her beloved golden retriever, Finn, are used to. But Maureen is determined to make this a holiday to remember—which means finding a way to promote Haven House on a shoestring. Fortunately, Haven's vintage movie theater, the Paramount, has come up with a great "Twelve Days of Christmas" idea. They'll feature an impressive list of the best classic Christmas movies ever made—shown by one-time movie actor-turned-projectionist Decklin Monroe . . . 
   
   
    
  But nobody bothered to tell Maureen that the Paramount is haunted by the ghost of a man who was murdered a few years back. Haven's top cop Frank Hubbard doesn't believe in ghosts but, believing that Decklin Monroe was somehow involved, he wants a reluctant Maureen's help. 
   
   
    
  That plan is derailed when, on the first day of the festival, a fresh murder victim is found at the theater. Now Maureen has to defend her staff and guests, while trying to keep her high-spirited resident ghosts out of the picture—before they have company for the holidays . . .

  Ginny Fellows is a theatrical agent with a knack for drama—though she prefers it to stay on-screen. Living in the charming English village of Shepton Rise, she represents a unique group of actors: “The Dead Actors.” Each of her quirky clients gained fame for their on-screen deaths, but their careers have proven far from lifeless. 
  When a tragic accident shakes the tranquil village, the police are quick to dismiss it as a misstep with fatal consequences. Ginny, however, senses there’s more to the story. Her clients, eager for a taste of real-life intrigue, are keen to help unravel the mystery. But Ginny has her own hurdles to overcome—crippling panic attacks keep her confined to her cozy home, making sleuthing a challenge of its own. 
    
  Can Ginny uncover the truth behind the so-called accident without leaving the safety of her haven? Packed with eccentric characters, razor-sharp wit, and a dash of heart, Murder Unscripted is a charming whodunit perfect for fans of quirky mysteries and small-town secrets.

  The New York Times bestselling Cork O’Connor Mystery series—a “master class in suspense and atmospheric storytelling” (The Real Book Spy)—continues with Cork O’Connor revisiting a case from his past and confronting mysterious deaths in the present.  
    
  A few nights before Halloween, as Cork O’Connor gloomily ruminates on his upcoming birthday, he receives a call from his son, Stephen, who is working for a nonprofit dedicated to securing freedom for unjustly incarcerated inmates. Stephen tells his father that decades ago, as the newly elected sheriff of Tamarack County, Cork was responsible for sending an Ojibwe man named Axel Boshey to prison for a brutal murder that Stephen is certain he did not commit. 
    
  Cork feels compelled to reinvestigate the crime, but that is easier said than done. Not only is it a closed case but Axel Boshey is, inexplicably, refusing to help. The deeper Cork digs, the clearer it becomes that there are those in Tamarack County who are willing once again to commit murder to keep him from finding the truth. 
    
  At the same time, Cork’s seven-year-old grandson has his own theory about the investigation: the Windigo, that mythic cannibal ogre, has come to Tamarack County … and it won’t leave until it has sated its hunger for human blood.
