Sinopse

In "Mask of Death," Paul Ernst crafts a masterful narrative that intertwines elements of mystery, horror, and psychological depth, set against a backdrop of early 20th-century America. The story delves into the morbid and uncanny aspects of the human psyche, exploring themes of identity and existential dread. Ernst employs a captivating prose style, rich with vivid imagery and suspenseful pacing, that immerses the reader in a world where the boundaries between reality and illusion blur, inviting echoes of modernist literary traditions while simultaneously embracing the popular pulp fiction genre of the time. Paul Ernst, an influential figure in the realms of speculative fiction and horror, infuses his writing with personal experiences and a keen understanding of the human condition, shaped by his own tumultuous times. Having collaborated with various pulp magazines and drawing upon the rich tapestry of early 20th-century anxieties, Ernst channels societal fears of death and the unknown into a compelling narrative that reflects his era's philosophical inquiries and cultural upheavals. Readers who are drawn to the interplay of suspense and psychological insight will find "Mask of Death" an indispensable addition to their literary collection. This gripping tale not only entertains but also provokes contemplation, making it a wise choice for those seeking a profound and haunting exploration of mortality and self.

    Enjoy this humorous, small town paranormal cozy mystery by award winning and bestselling author, Lucinda Race.  
    Welcome to Pembroke Cove, where witches and murders are multiplying... 
    In a small town like Pembroke Cove, Maine, everyone has something to hide. But when bookstore owner Lily Michaels takes a tumble and hits her head, and her cat Milo starts talking to her, she discovers she has something to hide, too. She’s a witch, and Milo is her familiar. And she’s not the only one in town. Lily has been hiding something else, too. Even though she’s always kept Gage Erikson in the friend zone, her feelings for the man Milo calls Detective Cutie go a lot deeper than she’s willing to admit. 
    Gage has a secret too. He’s always had a crush on Lily. But if he gives into his feelings, it might mess up the wonderful friendship they have. With his cowboy boots and cherry red pickup truck and knack for just letting folks talk, people might underestimate just how good a detective Gage actually is. But is he good enough to discover all of Lily’s secrets? 
    Somebody in Pembroke knows a lot about the secrets people are keeping, and isn’t above a little blackmail. While Lily struggles with learning how to be a witch, she works with Gage to uncover the truth, and a new kind of magic develops between them. Will they continue to be just friends, or will they finally admit to the secret love they’ve been hiding? 
    Books and Bribes is the first novel in A Book Store Cozy Mystery Series, although each book can be read as standalone. A sweet and clean cozy mystery with a guarantee the culprit is caught. Happy listening!
