  Sometimes a novel idea can turn out to be a bad one. 
   
   
   
  Sally Simmons was rather misunderstood in the small town of Whitby, North Carolina. An awkward woman with a sly countenance, she became a regular at the library, spending a good deal of time scribbling in a notebook and staring vacantly off into space. 
   
   
   
  It turned out, to everyone's surprise, that Sally had been industriously penning a novel. To their greater surprise, it became something of a sensation, even landing itself on the bestseller lists. 
   
   
   
  Since much of the novel had been written within the hallowed walls of the Whitby Library, reference librarian Ann and other staff members decide to hold an event to celebrate Sally’s accomplishment and learn more about her book. 
   
   
   
  Sadly, it soon becomes evident that Sally's book was inspired by actual residents of Whitby—and that she concealed their identities poorly. 
   
   
   
  When Sally meets an unfortunate demise, it's up to Ann to figure out the killer so the police can throw the book at him.

  Alone on a wilderness trek in the New Mexico mountains, Lakota PI Howard Moon Deer meets a barefoot, half-crazed astrophysicist who claims he's been abducted by a flying saucer and has just returned from the planet Klizmor in possession of an illusive equation from their advanced civilization: the Theory of Everything. 
   
   
   
  Is he a madman or part of a clever fraud? He's not just anyone, Howie soon discovers. He's Dr. Grisha Bloom, a famous Nobel Prize winning physicist, and when he's murdered Howie finds himself immersed in a dangerous world of UFO conspiracies, military secrets, and a group of cutthroat astronomers who are competing to claim credit for the discovery of a new subatomic particle, the Blue Moon Quark. 
   
   
   
  Blue Moon, the sixth Howard Moon Deer mystery, takes the listener on a roller-coaster ride through the dark side of New Mexico, birthplace of the atomic bomb, where science and fakery converge, and huge government contracts dangle for those brilliant enough—or ruthless enough—to reach for the stars.
